I'm not anti-capitalism. I didn't expect my previous post would be construed that way, actually, but there you go.

Nor do I think altruism is the pinnacle of human accomplishment. But it appeared to me from previous posts that in order to remove some layers of government, what was needed was for people to self-moderate some of their behaviours. I was merely trying to point out that in a capitalistic system that rewards self-interested behaviour, this may be a little tricky and is perhaps why our countries appear so over-governed.

Actually, I was surprised to hear such conservative views in one of your earlier posts.
About liberties being whittled away and all.
