I hope people come to realize that we don't need to be focused on capital just so people can live happy and free, or so that people can be members of the power process. Other societies didn't have poor people, unlike Rome. They just had people who wouldn't work. In places like Rome, or any modern country, someone can work many hours for many years and still struggle to afford going into debt so they could have property to farm for sustenance.

I agree, capitalism has helped the poor people of the world, in some ways. It has also helped the manipulative money-lenders gain massive amounts of global power.
