And except for yourself participating in the capitalist system you deride, what's your personal contribution to what you easily propose? I'd wager that you yourself are at least subconsciously speaking as untruthfully as anyone else from a rather shaky place of moral superiority. Also, the very argument above yours isn't that people show a false concern for the well-being of others, it's that whether they do this or not, their own efforts to improve their own lives even for selfish reasons still more often than not help society in general through market mechanisms. It has worked remarkably so far, even if it's imperfect in many ways, like nearly anything human.

Can you explain how you measure counterfactual reality, which is an implicit assertion within your claim?
