it doesnt really matter what purpose you give to your capitalism, you will still have an unending amount of leechers that will want to obtain financial freedom.

We have had 50 years of wealth transfer, and we no longer have enough capital to run a society based on capitalism. Hopefully the collapse of the global debt mountain will reverse this.

     I agree with you. From a pragmatic perspective, chances are not exactly equal. Those who benefited from a better educational environment had the best chances of success. It's really unbalanced,indeed, but you can not pull down those who have benefited from a prolific environment. A kind of duty that the educated ones have is to create chances for the less fortunate. The fact is that we can not eliminate the hierarchy from our society. Of course the hierarchy is based on certain criteria.

Do you believe in a Purpose based Capitalism where people work not only to generate profits, but to create social and environmental impact solutions?

Do you think that businesses should be addressing these problems as many governments are getting obsolete, specially with decentralized systems?
The only purpose in capitalism is maximizing profit.  Every blue moon maximizing profit aligns with doing the right thing.

but capitalism offers the equal chance depending on individual capabilities.
Individual capabilities depend a lot on upbringing.  Someone who doesn't go to school, for example, can never recognize their capabilities.  Capitalism  enables those who are born into capital and severely handicaps those who are not.

People should not have to do anything special to get basic childhood education and nutrition.  Those who hold this view simply don't understand how critical those things are to personal development.  They they think that their "talent" just came about without any environmental factors and is purely a result of their exceptional merit as a human.

     Yes, I believe in the idea that others can benefit from your actions that are honestly done. Virtuous actions for you also act for the benefit of society. Obviously, there is an unsustainable limit, but in principle our competitiveness brings us benefits.
     Does capitalism cause greed? We do not master enough the human nature. The human being is rational, but his decisions are often irrational. The difference between communism and capitalism (in this context) is that communism offers so-called guaranteed equality without the citizen doing something, but capitalism offers the equal chance depending on individual capabilities.

they dont get obsolte, the governments where regional states that where basically guiding a diversified, economy in a region.

all capitalists are secretly and openly in a zero sum game against each other.

communists supress nonstate capitalists,

capitalists surpress socialist communists if not unchallenged. etc.

when the state collapse to decentralised systems new problems and opportunities will occur.

Well, reading Sociologist Zygmunt Bauman is interesting to answer this question!

What he writes, which is very interesting, about the solid and the liquid world, is basically that as we live in a materialistic world, power is basically in materials.
One of the main pillars of the free entreprise is low taxes and little power from the government.
Everydays corporations and businesses are keeping the money (Specially in the new digital/crypto economies) and governments are loosing their power.

In a mid/long future, most of the money will be owned by private parties, making governments almost obsolete, power to the private sector.
Now, another question is... What happens to the people?
