    The progression of humanity was from hunter-gatherer to larger tribes to city-states to eventual feudalism by the late Antiquity all the way up until around 1600. We’ve not even had any kind of pure capitalism since then, only some hybrids of capital and socialism.

      First, what do you mean by “pure capitalism”?

      Second, the fact that some “socialism” is mixed into the capitalism is the only reason it hasn’t failed sooner.
