It's called Sharing. Without sharing there will be endless wars. Now be good little capitalists and share.

@lol101lol101lol10199 I'd suggest making "luxury" goods the main focus of conventional capitalism. As soon as you add a price tag to necessities, you get into difficult ethical areas, for example, our current health care system quite literally places a price on human's life, which I simply can not rationalize. It's simply wrong.

He offers no alternative to slavery in the world outside of the intellect but he can be added to the seemingly infinite list of those who can articulate all that is wrong so well. The "youth movement" is not breaking down "authoritarian patterns" but simply pledging their allegiance to a different group of authoritarians. I don't see them starting their own communities or experimenting in any way. They CREATE nothing but instead want "experts" to plan things out for them and everyone else.
when/where was this talk?

Certainly, market economy has shown to be more adaptable and more responsive to what the people demand than plan economy. However, assuming all people should be considered equal, it follows that social and economic equality must be an end in itself. Thus the best system would be one of democratic socialism combined with a somewhat free, yet heavily regulated market economy where important things (health, education, etc) are publicly owned and the gap between rich and poor is actively reduced.
