    well, not mine. I do all my web browsing with Tor.
    when Tor is not welcome, I generally take the hint.
    but since you insisted, I tried again, and with the aid of the Internet Archive, I could give it a look. I'm unimpressed. it's not even good capitalism propaganda. the hard problems of economy are aggravated by capitalism because it (by design) promotes concentration AKA inequality. though we now have abundance, capitalism needs to and does make sure that this abundance doesn't reach the people in need. that wouldn't serve the interests of the capital. and that's exactly Leonardo's initial point in the thread. capitalism is not the solution, it's the biggest part of the problem, because it's a cruel and unsustainable arrangement. is radical democracy (as in, workers AKA the people collectively controlling the government, the state, the economy and the means of production) the solution? possibly. there's no reason for central planning to be the rule, or for it to curtail freedoms, including economic freedoms. you have a cool idea that would improve life for the people, produce more efficiently, whatever? share it, convince the people to invest in it, to give it a try. companies enable internal competition, despite central planning for a shareholders' benefit, why couldn't a radical democracy realize that this could work too? yeah, it hasn't been tried, it hasn't been done, we don't know how to get there, and we know who places the roadblocks
