BRAVO. Well said by all. A bit off-topic, but with keen insight, which is hard to find these days, on-topic.
-----Original Message----- From: Mauro Lacy I think the same. The problem is in the way money is taken as a value in itself, when it should be considered just a convenient form of replacement for other, real values .... The way money is valued, that's where the real problem lies. Peter Gluck wrote: I think the problem is not with Capitalism - you cannot find anything better or more realistic, it is with Moneytheism- the most popular and destructive religion today. James Bowery wrote: The only way to get capitalism to work is to shift the tax base from economic activity to the liquidation value of assets, and set the tax rate to the interest rate used to calculate liquidation value. But no one with wealth wants that to happen even though just about everyone who has high incomes would want it to happen.... So, due to political economic considerations, capitalism cannot be made to work.
