What would count as being "proven to work" that doesn't also disqualify Capitalism?

Any long-running system that in most instances makes the lives of most ppl better. I can't say I've done extensive research myself, but when a huge majority of people knowledgeable on the topic say the same thing I'm inclined to take their word for it.

Cool, so you should be a Socialist, or should at least do some research on Socialism. Capitalism is generally disqualified by your definition if you take the international effects of Capitalism into consideration as well.
