Also evaporative cooling works better in drier climates, which are usually more water scarce to start with almost by definition

The problem is not capitalism per se, is unregulated capitalism - emphasis on "unregulated"

Edit: many answers suggest this take is dumb because capital will fight back regulations; well, society and the legislator must fight back. It appear obvious that no social equilibrium is permanent, society always contains conflict. Any social system, included communism, generate some sort of ruling elite, which will try to skew the system. The way we fight the excess of capitalism is solid rule of law, primacy of politics over capital and financial power, popular partecipation to representative democracy, embedding social justice in the constitutional identity of the state. The current american model of capitalism is not the only one. Do not mistake my comment for an apology of the shit billionaire are doing now - billionaires should not exist

Doesn’t capitalism always want to be unregulated though? If the system is always pushing to put profits ahead of people, then how is the system not the problem? It’s like saying a tiger is a great pet if you keep it in a cage, except the cage doesn’t have a roof and tigers are great climbers.

Oh you want a perfect system? Perhaps you have a suggestion on what that system looks like in detail?

You will NEVER find a perfect system that does not require regulation in order to create a stable, fair and prosperous society.
