"Philosopher Renata Salecl: 'Capitalism Is Humanity's Neurosis'"

Look at the Native American cultures. No all powerful government. No exploitation. And that's just off the top of my head.

Common misconception, those guys were assholes to each other same as we are. Had we not interfered right at the calcifying moment for the 5 Nations (just one example, there are others) we may well have stumbled upon a veritable native american empire not but a few short years later. Most native american cultures had a very thorough and riogid social system...and exploitation of others (and environment/resources) was particularly pronounced in the NE (where there was opportunity to do so).

Aztechs had to get their sacrifices SOMEWHERE.
