    Monetizing everything is inherent in capitalism, though

    nah. there’s “limited capitalism” where only parts of society are monetized, like heavy industries. it’s neoliberalism that monetizes everything. this means that if you want childcare, you pay for it. in earlier decades/centuries, that was done by the wife / community.

      Sure, but the longer the game goes, the more likely capital concentration will lead to what we have now.
