Alan Cole added,
You might have been thinking that but that's not what you wrote in the thread.
It literally is...it however, might not be what you read.
I don't see it. I imagine you have more to say than what's being said but I'm not a mind reader. 
I can sum it up in one line. Capitalism can't solve problems that don't make other people rich, socialism can.
Ok new discussion because the previous one seems fraught with misunderstanding: Yes, free market capitalism without tools to price in externalities or value public goods can't solve one class of problems and create others.
Collectivist socialism, attempting centralized community production without ability to start ones own economic enterprise, like in the Great Leap forward, was shown incapable of fulfilling the needs of basic survival.
So there's a middle path, which takes into the account failures of the free market without throwing away the tool, but making it more accountable to stakeholders including natural systems, ecosystems, proximal communities.
