As it turns out it doesn’t actually cost that much on regular transit, there’s an AIRPORT SURCHARGE because it’s an “airport train”.

No wonder Americans don’t use public transit, even when the system exists it’s ridiculously difficult and expensive to use.

    Not at all, corporatism is a system where interest groups have a high amount of power : guilds, syndicates, unions, etc…

    Capitalism literally refers to pooling capital together from multiple sources to allow shared risk taking and allow for the creation of companies that can get bigger by having more than one owner.

    This eventually leads the way for pension funds and multinational corporations whose sole purpose is to extract maximum value for pensioners and billionaires.

      Sounds way more like corporatism to me. Capitalism is just when the private investors own businesses for profit. Pooling capital from multiple sources and reducing risks are not fundamental properties of capitalism, and are much more representative of Limited Liability Corporations specifically.
