I would agree with you in the sense that what the market has going for it is that everyone with power has a stake in maintaining the status quo. What unites the different political parties, the Koch brothers and the Clintons, the 0.01% with the 1% (and I'd argue the top 80% even) is maintaining the current capitalistic political economy. Although everyone seems to be at odds with one another, it would be a sight to behold all them united together to preserve a system recognizable to everyone who bought into it.
I think we're swinging towards a willful ignorance of why market restrictions and unions became necessary because of the success of those programs and also a focus on the rights of the consumer since we all consume so damn much. It's a new gilded age that has no respect for workers rights and a strange bottom up defense of companies like Amazon who are shitty to their workers but seem to provide an invaluable service to the consumer
