Do not conflate capitalistic means with legal ones.

  My main point was that eventually the problem will be solved due to economic incentives, not moral ones. Somehow the mention of laws (legal incentives, I suppose?) crept into my post after I started writing it.

    Note that following, rather than ignoring, economic incentives is the more moral way of life (other things being equal).

      Why? I don't really see the correlation... Unless it's of the basis that it is morally good to do things you find enjoyable?

        Morality = how to live. Other things being equal, following economic incentives makes you richer than if you didn't, which is pretty clearly a better life (everything else being equal). It means you can buy a better education for your kids, or for kids in africa, or a million other good things.
