Not a conflict with capitalism - it's another trajedy of the commons - the robber barons of old stole the owned commons land and started said 'capitalism'.

Capitalism is still very alive, and will continue to be. It's in conflict with the general welfare of the people...

I assume they meant “capitalism as it is currently implemented”. In any case, not like capitalism is suggested as being under threat - just that an economic model based on competitive markets will have a lot of issues with fairly allocating resources to all individuals, instead accumulating most of it to a few industry leaders.

Something will have to change.
