MODERATORS
The former is a debate worthy of its own separate thread, I think.
A simple ban on capitalism alone wouldn't work, I agree with you on that. I'm of the opinion that the government and workers' unions ought to own the means of production and, when they do, they need to fully automate said means so money isn't necessary anymore, and when that happens, capitalism will go into the dustbin of history where it honestly belongs.
I probably come down more in the side of coops and unions than government, but yeah, that's probably more doable than an attempt at a ban.
