There will always be flaws in our systems and the way the government runs. But we have yet as a civilization gotten to the point of perfection. And to be honest, we are getting a bit too uptight and needy about what we need in our life. 100 years ago people worked 14 hour days and got minimal pay and were treated like shit. Now you can buy a house in Saskatchewan off the money you can make working a year in an oil patch.

I agree that as a society we tend to be too materialistic, and studies have shown that once you make $60,000, making more money doesnt make you that much happy.
But there are too many people that are born into poor neighbourhoods, poverty, and unemployment, and the system doesnt protect the interest of these people. They appear powerless. They have no means of escape. The system isn't helping these people out. But the rich and greedy have all the means to help themselves and are abusing their powers and responsibility.
