Sadly, capitalism cannot be reformed - of course laws can be passed that would improve the situation, but because the wealthy can just accumulate more wealth, and thus power, they can change the laws again in the future to benefit themselves - thus they can repeal any reforms you impose on them. There is only one path to long-term success - complete abolition of capitalism.
Oh i don't try to defend it or keep it alive, lol. With the changes needed to make capitalism work for everyone it would no longer be capitalism.
What would you replace it with? Your lofty ideal is a recipe for disaster for the working class until you have a fully-formed, tried and tested replacement system ready to drop in place. Until you've done that, you're just foolishly damning millions of people to worse suffering.
That's something we need to collectively work on - because we all have different needs and perspectives, no one person, no matter how educated, can just come up with the structure of a whole new society by themselves. We need to start by recognizing that our current system does not serve us, then we need to form consensus on how we can replace it.
I'd encourage you to read an Anarchist FAQ for more information:
If you haven't developed a working replacement then you're just fantasizing about "something better".
