I’ve slowly learned that wishing for radical change usually is fruitless when the working class have no weapons at their disposal or are too meek to use them…, and even when wielded the changes are so destabilising that the number of wishes double.
Capitalism will die kicking and screaming, and it will take everyone with it if it has to. No, I would rather undermine it by providing a free/cheap alternative to an inflated commodity through the use of rapid new tech, forcing long-time investors to look elsewhere for a profit. Once a market is no longer cornered, things usually settle down.
Slowly, slowly, if repeated enough, and with enough technological development, investors will have no idea where to invest to exploit consumers.
We’re talking about a magic button that can do anything. Are you so imprisoned by hopelessness that you can’t even imagine a magic solution to your problems?
No, I just believe that large changes are cursed, and small changes in the right direction might be enough to enact a bigger change. Think of it like a genie that allows you to wish for anything (likely with cursed results), vs 1000 genies that allow you to wish for small things (also cursed, but with smaller side effects).
