Doesn't mean we shouldn't do it.

Isn't the point of capitalism to not have a plan and let the market figure it out?

The point of Capitalism is Marx needed a straw man to tear down. The world has never seen what he envisioned.

What you might call capitalists very much plan. They don't believe in central planning where one "guy" makes a plans and everyone else implements them, but they do plan.
