    Well, we have like 3 decades at most of this kind of tech, and really only a couple of generations modern capitalism, so it’s a bit tough to say “always” about anything. It would be more accurate, historically, to say that the monarchy always wins - but especially in that case - past performance does not guarantee future returns.
