What has happened to the US is the direct result of unfettered capitalism. The more the wealth gets concentrated into the hands of fewer and fewer people, the more the ultra wealthy need to invest in oppression, surveillance, disinformation and fascism, since a united and well informed public would put their heads on spikes. Other countries are a little better insulated, not having bought so wholeheartedly into the idea of money controlling politics and not having been similarly brainwashed. The USA has been primed to fall first. But the root cause is ludicrous wealth inequality, which is a feature of capitalism and very much a global issue.

I’d say it’s lack of political will to fix issues. Poland wanted to access common EU market and all the benefits, so we introduced high quality law and law enforcement along with strong anti curruption framework. Additionally if state fucks you, you can do a complain to the EU Tribunal of Justice. The end result is that we effectively have more capitalism than the corpocracy of US. And it works, capitalism is really good if it runs along with high quality legal framework. It’s not a perfect system, but I by all means prefer it over US
