If humans are innately short-sighted and tribal/selfish creatures, any system of organization that assumes otherwise is problematic. That seems to be the case with capitalism. A society with a strong education system that perpetuates cultural values of long-term sustainability could get by with less explicit regulations, but I don't see us getting from here to there. And even if we got there, such a utopian capitalist society would be fragile and prone to corruption towards over-exploitation. Other systems are needed to maintain balance -taxes, political advertising regulations, labor laws, etc
