Is Mankind Outgrowing the Price System?

Some people have noted, even economists, that the Price System that we use in human societies and civilizations is outdated and unworkable عملية تحويل المسار. They cite the disparity between rich and poor and all the poverty in the world. To a degree one would have to admit upon thinking about it, that it is not the most perfect system, as it often rewards certain types of behavior which undermines the whole (the rest of the population) for the betterment of a few?

Theoretically all things being equal and if everything is working in a Free-Market System this should not be an actual problem. We know there is corruption, artificial barriers to entry into various domains, business models and power base structures. We can tell by the way law-makers constantly jockey for position and often forget who they are entrusted by to serve; the people.

Many people for these and many other reasons say that a price system is the wrong way to run human societies as it is a giant paper chase balloon payment ready to explode and take down the whole system? Indeed, we have seen such things happen in nations, regions and industry sectors, thus we cannot totally deny that.

As far as the "Price System" currently being used, for which I was born into, still I am a free-market type thinker myself. That is to say that I do not have a problem with the unit of trade we call "a dollar" as it allows me who has a cow to buy a hammer without cutting off a piece of my cow to buy it.

Intrinsic valuations in free market are not evil in my opinion. I think I would need better clarification on your definition of a "Price System" if you are calling that the settling of valuations based on intrinsic desire, then perhaps the real issue is with the "human desire" or thought process for "instant gratification" instead of deeper thinking and understanding of the long-term paper chase and time/value of interest and money, as well as the flow of trade and money.

Some folks believe that "the price system" much like religion, was put in place to control people.

When they say that the "Price System" is in place to create divisions between humans? Well, we must ask them to clarify this عملية تحويل مسار المعدة. As, wouldn't you say that Primate Politics of the species does that automatically and Machiavellian style leadership prevails with or without a "Price System."

For instance Chickens have a pecking order, but no real golden eggs to trade? Of course they are trapped themselves and fighting amongst themselves without being economically enslaved over a unit of trade or interest of it. Perhaps everyone should look at the "price system" and consider it for what it is and think on this issue for your selves?

I certainly hope this article is of interest and that is has propelled thought. The goal is simple; to help you in your quest to be the best in 2007. I thank you for reading my many articles on diverse subjects, which interest you.
