> Capitalism is the normal mode of human interaction There is simply no evidence available to support this claim, and this is only recent human history. Capitalism is the normal mode of human interaction in our own limited scope of history. Indeed my own personal beliefs is that it s a mix of capitalism, socialism, and communism. Many argue our pre-modern social structures were very much founded on the basis of egalitarian social relations and common ownership, such as the hunter-gatherers. What are we to say about the monarchies, kingdoms, and dynasties that reigned for so much of human history? How about the early nomads which are a type of primitive minimalist society? To sit here and argue that any one of these is the "normal mode of human interaction" is absurd. Capitalism happens to be an OK system, for now.
