Capitalism is alive and well, living inside a greatly transformed feudalism.
What does socialism need capitalism for? Wealth.

What does capitalism need feudalism for? Security.

The chains of loyalty and honor and oath taking that was feudalism are still existant, the form has just evolved into the modern military, law enforcement, and nation-state government.
