What you hate isn’t capitalism, it’s that you can’t even get capitalism because the government refuses to regulate businesses. For capitalism to work, the state has to ensure that there’s healthy competition in the marketplace. But, when there’s competition a rich person who owns capital might lose.

There are TONS of people who would go buy a non-computerized car in a SECOND. I have money, I am one of them. But they refuse to give us a product ? Its baffling!

It’s not baffling when you realize that there are only 2 remaining car manufacturers in the US, and fewer than 20 worldwide.
Look at the number of car companies established just in 1900:
