    I think you’re thinking of markets, but those aren’t exclusive to capitalism. For example, you could have a private sector economy delivering nice to have goods that’s organized using cooperative ownership. The cooperatives can compete with each other the same way capitalist companies do without the problems associated with capital concentration. Meanwhile, I completely agree with you that anything that’s essential should be provided by the public sector and profit should not be a consideration there.
