How are you going to get “reputable” “working” alternatives without trying them? You’re acting as if “theoretically” is somehow bad, while literally any system was theoretical before it was implemented.
But yeah, your mentality is showcasing exactly why we still have capitalism. People are afraid to try new things that might upset the status quo. They’re more afraid of new, untested things failing, than known, bad things staying.
People are specifically afraid of trying things that have led to extremely bad outcomes for countries that tried them…like millions dead from famine bad. This isn’t let’s experiment for fun territory. If there was a single non-capitalist success story, that would probably help.
