95% of all jobs are themselves worthless. We are accomplishing practically nothing as a human race. Think of a job. Can you justify it's existence in moving humanity forward? Why then does it exist? To throw money around?

The problem has nothing at all to do with education. Our economics must be fixed.

workers of the world unite, comrade.
this thread isn't /sci/ so might as well say that capitalism is a system to turn natural resources into currency, with a side effect being that sometimes the natural resources are converted to something useful.

why not skip the bullshit and explicitly declare that we will use resources to provide for all?

idk, you ask me this system seems to be more the product of us as a group than we are the product of the system.

Humans are flawed, imperfect beings, and have trouble delegating authority to their betters.
You could always get around this by forming the government entirely out of expert systems to deal with the matters of economic distribution, but you'll always have someone extolling the virtues of "muh invisible hand"

That being said, I do like have several different burger joints to eat from, even if I have to deal with two dozen functionally identical toothpaste brands.

That's the system used by the Soviet Union, which collapsed under its own economic weight. It's something that works out pretty well on paper, so its flaws are very much human.

Such a state may have been more successful in a more modern technological climate. Much more of our resource distribution these days is handled on quicker, cleaner systems that can be easily shared with the appropriate parties. Automating the management and distribution of goods is actually doable in this day and age, though if we centralize it, we again wind up with the problem of the people running the system having special rights.

As the future unfolds, many of the needs of the people, the declaration that we will use resources to provide for all, will likely be expressed through the introduction of more and more socialist policies. However, society at large will remain capitalist because it's generally more productive in the face of instabilities (i.e., people).

A select few resources will be provided for all. The rest, you've gotta earn. There's gotta be some price for staying lazy and uneducated if you're taking up society's resources, after all. Economics can be fixed, but the solution either won't be of human management or it'll be a dismantling of economy.
