The issues that people blame capitalism for have ZERO to do with capitalism, and everything to do with government corruption. The reason why, historically, Leftist/ communist / socialist governments have always led to massive suffering in the worst case, and change to the free market after economic failures in the best case, is because the more governments push away from embracing free market (FREEDOM) economic policies the more the corruption increases. The Government, ANY government, their main job is to PROTECT THEIR CITIZENS FROM ANY THREATS. The free market is not a threat to anyone. It is so rich and innovative that even the most worthless / useless / unskilled humans benefit immensely from it. What gets in the way, and always will no matter what ism you throw on the end. The type of relationship the Global companies like certain oil ones, or Google have with governments are perfect examples of why we are all screwed.
