The only people worried are the wealthy because the only people served by the system for the past few decades have been the wealthy.
“The system will collapse!!” Oh the system that only offers welfare to its wealthiest members? The system that refuses to adopt wildly popular policy? The system that’s failed to guarantee livable wages? The system that won’t adopt universal healthcare? The system that won’t enshrine equal rights for anyone other than white men? The system currently threatening life on earth with it’s reckless commitment to fossil fuels? The system that’s allowed it’s infrastructure to crumble?
Wealthy people built a system that benefits no one and act surprised when no one cares about its potential collapse.
And then they point to all the scientific and technological advances of the last several hundred years and lay claim to them because the economic system existed at the same time as the advances.
Feudalism (or whatever economic system can be argued to be existent at the time) didn’t make the telescope, Galileo did with technology.

I’d anything the lack of cooperation inherent in capitalism hinders science and technology, not encourages it
