Is this the anti-communist manifesto? :D

It's a caricature of sorts, as you're probably aware. It's not exactly a fair criticism I think!

Let's consider the opposite, capitalism, and the extreme discrepancies of wealth that it creates that, I assume, you'd consider fair (because who is unaware that Kim Kardashian worked much harder than Einstein or Philip K Dick who had to sustain himself with dogfood, and therefore deserves her money?)

So, what is capitalism? Perfect competition?

Are there any examples of perfect competition in nature so we can compare them to capitalism?

Oh, wait, natural selection is such an example!

Ever seen a lion kill a deer and carry it back to its warehouse where it stacks it alongside the other 1000 gazelles that it's killed, that could feed an entire forest, while other lions starve to death? No? Neither have I.

In nature, perfect and fair competition means that the difference between the successful lion and the lion that starves to death, is that the successful lion gets to starve one day longer. The successful lion manages to catch its prey just days before it finds itself on the brink of death. There's no rich lions. Just lions that are dead and lions that are not dead yet.

So when one human owns an island and another human doesn't know if he'll have enough money to feed his children tomorrow, I know something's wrong. I know capitalism isn't what it's pretending to be. It's not perfect competition, for sure. It favors only some kinds of traits (possibly psychopathic ones), and ignores others.

In general, there's only one thing that concerns me personally: under which system do the geniuses do better? We know some people are better than others - we just do. The question is, which system rewards actual worth and effort better?

I myself am not a communist, but I'm more liberal-leaning from what I can tell.

I like your interpretation of the apple of Eden story!
