It won't matter what economic system we come up with, because there will always be people who figure out ways to take more than they contribute. Capitalism accounts, to some degree, for human nature. The alternatives we have come up with historically either are more extremely authoritarian, or depend on everyone acting altruistically, which immediately devolves into extreme authoritarianism.</p></blockquote><p></p>
