I think that you and I both would agree that our entire economic system needs to be reevaluated. It is not a sustainable system, nor is it just. But while some alternative theories sound interesting (resource-based, basic income, among many others), there is always a glitch. Of course, the “market-based” system has its share of problems, but if we were to convert, it would have to be to a system that is far superior, with some examples and studies to back it up. Otherwise, the chaos and destruction involved in converting would make it untenable.
