Not all americans, but all the ones at the top that can make money are absolutely abusing and exploiting the system at the cost of the earth and life itself. Green supercedes everything in America. Unbelievably sad.

It’s not abusing or exploiting the system. Massive wealth accumulation is the goal of capitalism and is inevitable so long as egregiously wealthy families are able to pass that wealth on.
Alternatively / additionally, “the purpose of a system is what it does”

The goal of capitalism is not to accumulate this much wealth at the expense of other people. It’s for competitive markets, not oligarchs and monopolies like we have now, where a few companies literally own everything.
