You're suggesting heavy regulation of social and economic systems which is the entire point of socialism. You say socialism doesn't work, but that is exactly what you're describing.
And capitalism does not want to exist in a society of international regulation. Those concepts are at odds with one another.
The pure socialism people keep asking for hasn't worked. It's been taken over and corrupted throughout history.
Capitalism does not want socialist policies, but you can still force it to apply them. Because it's not a god, a person, an all encompassing system, any of that. It's a tool just like socialism should be treated.
