There is no monopoly without govt protection. No one requires that you work for anyone. You choose to work for & support orgnaizations that exist at your expense because you prioritize security over your principles. There are also cheap places to live with electric cooperatives, I know because I live near one. There are 2 ways to deal with people: voluntarily or coercively trade or criminal/political authority The closer we have gotten to capitalism (severely limiting political authority), the better conditions have been for the average person & people have flocked to those places from all over the world. Every attempt at communism has produced slave camps, starvation, & conditions resembling hell on earth. As things have gone down hill in the US it has been because of the growth in political authority disrupting trade. The divide between capitalism & communism could not be larger.

The goal for the capitalist is domination. They say: "You don't like being a wage slave? Then you should start a business. If you're successful you can aquire some wage slaves of your own." Capitalism epouses freedom from government, but freedom from capitalists with dark triad traits has never been part of the deal. The goal is to climb the tiers with the help of nepotism until your and your descendants are the ruling class. The ruling classes are always basically evil. Inheritance is the one thing that breaks the neat logic of capitalsism. Capitalism without inheritance could actually have a chance of working, but sadly that can never happen because appropriating inheritance would require an unjust use of force.
