Yea, but you've been born and brought up in a culture where money is the ultimate motivating factor. Is it not possible that there are other ways to motivate people, or do you believe that our way is absolute, and nothing else is possible?
I believe it is ANIMAL nature to want to be the best. How many animals out there, who have no "concept" of capitalism, strive to be the "leader of the pack"? You have to change the way humans are wired, and since we are animals.

I'm not saying it's not "ideal". I'm just saying human nature says it's not feasible.

BTW, thanks PB for the amusing discussion.
