It does seem that most (at least in the US) feel that absent Capitalism, we are left with Communism, or at the least Socialism. IMO people need to understand that the individual can be divorced from Capitalism without assimilation, or a thoughtless devotion to the public good. Greatness doesn't require a means to acquire capital. We need new measures of achievement.
