How do we get past capitalism and the unlimited growth and profit above nature and people ideal set that's furthering our destruction?
Simple, eliminate the Federal Reserve, multinational corporations, centrally controlled governments and the intelligence agencies that enable them. Prosecute banks as criminals when they break the law. Get off fiat currencies and return to a commodity backed monetary system.
What controls us now is central planning honed to a high degree of control. Get rid of that.

Our idea of economy and money need to change. With the advent if technology robotics such as 3d printing and globalization we need to evolve our idea of how money and social structure works in order to keep up.
New social incentives need to be recognized and accepted by the general population. The self paradigm needs to cease to exist and we need to see the connection of ourselves to one another.
How do we do this?

At what point do we realize that it's not working?
Starvation, incarceration, poverty, people can't afford education, healthcare, rent, or food.
It's not working right now, in its current form.
Simple??????

.. Living in California for a long while, I advocated this idea. Now however I am more of a mind for regional groupings, Northwest, Southwest, New England etc.....
Go for independence, on a state by state basis. This is why I (as an Englishman) I will be voting for an independant Scotland on Thursday.

Are you an older white male? Sounds like you are part of the white middle class that was protected and treated properly until Reagan. The fact that you only suffered when obama came into office is mere coincidence of timing.
Capitalism is the best system for getting basic human needs met but then has highly diminishing returns.
