Exactly, the thing most people don't realize is that the success of the modern capitalist system was a historical accident. The US basically got to sit out the second world war and build up their industries while the rest of the world burned. When the war ended, the US emerged as the biggest economy and they've been riding that ever since. But if the system actually worked as advertised, then the US would only be getting stronger over time, and the exact opposite is happening in practice. So, clearly the system itself is not responsible for the success that's ascribed to it.
