As long as we have been human, we have had trade. As long as we have had civilization, we have had markets.
#Capitalism, on the other hand, is a recent (and pernicious) invention.
Those first two will not intrinsically cause harm. We can live with them in peace and security, with plenty for all in a harmoniously balanced ecosphere.
But no matter how hard you try to control or “regulate” it, capitalism breeds inequality, waste, and war. Until it is overthrown, they will always be with us.
