The life of the average person post capitalism is hundreds of times better than before it existed. Being poor now is infinitely better than being middle class 600 years ago.
You're confusing capitalism with science/innovation. It's a common mistake but a mistake nonetheless.

new ventures without the help and approval of their lord's.
Not true. The Lords aren't the literal landed gentry anymore, but the economic elite and the politicians they buy control the lives of regular people even more now than feudal lords did in the middle ages. They just have a bunch of multimillionaires telling people otherwise.
Capatilism has continuously lifted people out of poverty, my family included.
