But I feel strongly that Capitalism, in it's present definition, and practice, is unworkable for much longer. It's the same old Power grab for resources and the control of them. Perhaps it's human nature, but I don't think it's the totality of human nature, which gives me hope.

The human nature part is individuality, which I firmly believe humans need to survive.

But and again, at what point do I determine what I need? I can assure you whatever point I chose, there will be someone who thinks I am an a$$ for wasting my money on things I do not need.
