Society when nobody need ever fear poorness and homelessness, but also Nabisco is free to design and manufacture Hot Ones "The Last Dab"-flavored Oreo cookies

Thanks to private equity and similar drivers - the ultimate capitalists - candy today is nowhere near as depraved and decadent as it was 25 years or so ago. And in the 80's? It was amazing.

Capitalism works best for the people when it is severely constrained. SEVERELY.

a special economic zone will be put established so undesirables like venture capitalists and private equity investors can commodity trade and gamble on rare oreo and pringles flavors to make a high score go up

That would be a good twist ending for a cyberpunk story to reveal that it’s all taken place in this weird quarantine zone for hypercapitalists and that most of the future-world doesn’t work this way.

For a variety of reasons I don't think we can ever truly get rid of the affluent class, but I want their ability to buy their way into government or media to be shut down

They should be encouraged to put their money into quirky hobby projects that create employment opportunities, like 19th century guys who built fake ruined temples, or 21st century guys with a dozen fursuits
