I think the rub is that the public debate confuses the triumph of the old British system of aristocracy and privilege with "capitalism". Just as they had the "corn laws" in the early 19th century, we have pharmaceutical import bans, region coding, the "dutch sandwich" and many many other privileges to keep the winners winning with a minimum of effort.
If that's what passes for capitalism, who wouldn't reject it?
People spend too much time debating economic systems when the fundamental problem is a public neglect of equal justice under the law.
