As the above commenter mentioned it is possible to stop it eating the leash so to speak. The main problem is keeping all of those protections actually in place. We don’t seem to want to codify worker rights or anything else important to the constitution.

Follow the trends. People didn't stop wanting rights, Capitalism exists in constant decay as it grows, eroding worker rights due to outsized Capitslist power.

You can only stop Capitalism from eating its leash if you stop time, as long as systems remain in motion they will trend in natural directions, for Capitalism that is centralization.
