We made lots of progress without the systems of capitalism and patents. I dare say that the progress before the systems of capitalism & patents was more sustainable (environmentally & humanely). Much of the paradigm of economic scarcity is a false. Economic scarcity is a tool to enforce social order so those on top can control all of the resources. Capitalism needs scarcity for the profit motive. Farmers can't make as much profit if everybody has enough to eat and can receive food in a decentralized manner. We can have abundance. Hunger does not need to exist. We already produce enough food. We already produce enough ideas & innovation. Humans naturally create. No coercive incentive is needed. > clean answers like "abolish patents" are probably a bad idea It's probably a good idea to decentralize power & control. Power corrupts after all.
