That's right; none of the "isms" have worked (in their own right)... and "capitalism" in itself (in concept) isn't a bad thing but the world is in the grip of a new "ism" at the moment, and that "ism" is Corporatism.
Think of corporatism as an extreme of capitalism as much as totalitarianism is an extreme of socialism (of which, socialism isn't a bad thing in itself either and socialism can't survive without capitalism, yet both need to work together not for their own right).
and yes, greed, power and the subsequent corruption buggers things up every time.

Even duct tape can't fix stupid... but it can muffle the sound.
