There are many social structures that would lead to a better world but all of them depend on Mankind overcoming Original Sin. People going against their nature. Capitalism accepted that people are greedy but there were natural checks and balances because the Elites never were strong enough to enforce their will on everyone and their were places to go to escape them if you did not want to fight them.
The Elites now have the tools and power to avoid being overthrown and can divide the populous to prevent a strong enough revolution from forming. That and they can bribe the people with other peoples money.
Expecting Love to Conquer All is naïve. It is a beautiful vision but it is just a mirage. My wife tells me nothing is impossible. I tell her it is not about possibilities it is about probabilities. We can weaken the Elites, Oligarchs, Trumps, Putin's, whatevers. The probability that we could push control down to a more local level and take power away from the central governments of the large nations and international/multinational/global brands, companies, organization is good.
Cutting Taxes, Federal Taxes in the U.S. will help cripple the Federal Government. They may be able to borrow without limit but not without a price.
Stop advocating policy that must be implemented at the Federal Level. If you want single payer healthcare, get your State to pay for it, California made a move that way. If you want free college tuition get your State to pay it, my State does. If you want to cut tail pipe emissions pass State laws, California did. You want to close all the coal fired powerplants start in your State or County. Someone wanted to drill a fracking well in our Parish, we killed it, New York banned Fracking.
You want to save the planet start in your neighborhood. You want to end poverty, raise up a family yourself. I have done it twice. Adopt a poor family.
