The 'capitalism or socialism' dichotomy is a trap. As long as we remain in it we are doomed. It is all about beliefs. Beliefs divide us.

Rationally, the ethic of justice must be mutual respect (of a basic kind: taking one another into account as we live our separate lives together in societies). It maximizes the liberty that co-existing individuals can share simultaneously. It can be applied to the economy as a system, with astonishing results for society.
