"We have a general morality gap, we are over-leveraged, we have neglected to invest in the future, we have undermined social coherence, and we are in danger of completely losing the confidence of future generations,"

Thats not a problem with capitalism, its a problem with the people who over-leveraged, borrowing money they didn't pay back, who were immoral, who undermined social coherence, who spent the patrimony of future generations and now want more power over the very economy they ruined.

Yep. If they REALLY want to fix the problem, they should get rid of all the “too big to fail” laws and regulations and let the marketplace work for once. Then they wouldn’t have to meet in Davos.
