I don't like the ethical justifications that people try and build around capitalism and it's processes and outcomes, but the actual underlying structure and mechanisms I actually find very fascinating, and think have a lot of potential, if they could just be structured right. :/

@Angle Capitalism still contains some elements from feudalism. Companies, unless they're coops, are just smaller feudal domains. "Don't toil for the Lord, be your own Lord" would be the catchphrase for early capitalism. So it may be that whatever comes after capitalism - some sort of cooperative commons based society based on peer production - also contains some elements of the previous paradigm.
