RE: The Dark Side of Capitalism

Actually, there is substantial evidence fron anthropology that the system is responsible for creating certain types of behaviour.
I'm referring to the system of centralization,dominance and control that emerged after the agrarian revolution, culminating in the market system of economics.
In comparison,hunter gatherers were generally egalitarian and peaceful, and had affluence because they shared everything, and didn't have a society based on consumerism.
I don't advocate going back, but we need to come back to a decentralized,humanitarian society in modern form, using technology to create abundance, global networks and
free communication,etc.
When people feel safe, they act in a more loving and trusting way.
