“Socialism has proven the individual cannot rely on the group. Capitalism has proven the group can rely on the individual.”

In a capitalist economy, the incentive and reward are given to those who best allocate capital. Namely bringing in a profit, which puts more capitol under their management. Essentially the structure is set up so that the better you are at it the more you are entrusted with it.

Seeing that the only way to acquire currency is through providing human energy (mentally, emotionally, or physically). Capitol can be seen as a storage of human energy. That being the case, the allocation of capitol is the allocation of human energy.

The goal of a capitalist is to accomplish a human need or desire with less human energy then the existing solution. Or to greater serve a human need or desire, then currently available. The very nature of the capitalist goal and incentive structure. Make it very efficient at providing needs and desires for society with the least amount of human energy. The level of efficiency reached, has enabled the system to allocate more human energy to other areas. Allowing for breakthroughs in science, art, and entertainment.

A good example of human energy efficiency is to see it as a single person vs a whole town. By himself the man has to get water, build shelter, catch fish, and build a fire. In a society the one who’s good at fishing does the fishing, the one who’s good at cooking does the cooking… This brings efficiency to each task and leaves left over time for the people doing it. Next thing you know someones making puppet shows and people are giving him food and shelter for it.

Our ability to be efficient with human energy has enabled a rate of progress which compounds. Recognizing the dollar is a storage of human energy, reminds us to be mindful with where we spend it. It also tells us not to be greedy, and to empower the capitalist (American individual) to allocate capital to the best of their ability. However the capitalist must recognize his (or her) responsibility and be held accountable as to how they spend it (Anti-Trust laws & Funding Illegal activities).

Seeing a wealthy person should bring positive feelings. It means for one reason or another this person is really good at efficiently doing something. Any one person accomplishing something, accomplishes it for the greater whole weather they know it or not. Of course there may be those who use and abuse, however this is always short lived and out shined. Printed on the dollar bill is our belief that no entity can own or destroy us, as long as we remain a virtues people “In G-D we trust”.
