Are you insinuating that no other form of government or social

I suppose the love of money was not a significant factor in any

Being rid of Capitalism, and replacing it with??? Communism?
Anarchy? Feudalism? or what ever, would be a major improvement,
huh?

If you can provide means for generating and sustaining equal
motivation and honest integrity among all constituents, this
would work. The problem here is that people are not equally
motivated, nor are they all honest. There always has been, and
always will be those who won't carry their own load, but will
grab "their share" of all that the motivated producers can
provide for them.

Then sit back and watch the freeloaders and deadbeats bleed the
system to death, while those who were motivated and honest would
be compelled to carry the bulk of the load...thanks, but I
believe I'll pass on this one.
