These are moderately interesting questions, but without some actual insight (preferably informed) it just sounds like you're being contrarian for no reason.

I think these are exceptionally interesting questions, and may suggest the solutions would include redistribution of the benefits of increased productivity from the capitalist class to society as a whole (a reversal of the trend we've seen since the 1970s in the "west").

Contrarian to what?

This is about social welfare and policy as opposed to "let the market sort it out".
