Any system where gaining more wealth leads to an advantage in gaining additional wealth necessarily ends up with fewer and fewer owners. Feudalism progressively emerges until social inequality leads to revolution and war.
This is why capitalism has to be well regulated to find an appropriate balance between freedom and the prevention of acculation of negative effects.
In this sense, a capitalistic system is much like a biological system, requiring error correction that allows for growth and development while preventing the emergence of cancer.

Our civilization has cancer.

Depends on the circumstance on how the flute came to be. A has a good argument for it, because if you can't do anything with it you don't fucking need it. But B is a good point too, after all if it's the fruits of her labor and she wants it over some compensation equal to the flute.


So I would have to go with B because of the interest in the flute, but for a society as a whole you can't exactly run well if what people specialize in aren't what they are getting imo.


Maybe teach girl A how to build the flute or buy her one/teach her how to get money to buy her own if she wants it so much

A - Gets flute. Can improve society with muic.
B - Gets reimbursed a value reasonably equal to the labor/materials.

Cause all Americans think that they have a chance to become a millionaire by winning lottery or some other shit in their life time.
So they won’t give rich people a lot of hassle becuase they think they become one of them very soon and they don’t want to pay high taxes either.
