    Economists often assume humans behave as rational actors, but if that were true we would have overthrown capitalism and established a communist Utopia long ago.

        Doesn't that, in turn, imply that communism does not befit the nature of man?

        No it implies that economists tend to operate on unexamined premises

        You look pretty confused regarding: - the banking system - what "scarcity" means - fiat money - the fact that both the world and the economy aren't zero-sum games

        Sometimes yes. Other times we trust each other and work together, despite the incentives in the current system encouraging the opposite.

        Every human brain is constantly fighting between its rational and emotional side (or long- and short-term expectations), with the winner chosen by a long chain of decisions in a chaotic system. So utopias are a silly concept.

        You are correct; we are not rational creatures, rather we are emotional creatures who can rationalize...but admitting that our emotions, that is, how we feel, is really what drives us is very uncomfortable. It implies we are not "strong" or "in control".

        You might be wrong... Most people may be rational actors, yet relying on the self-interest with short-term outcomes, not on the enlightened self-interest with long term goals.
