And yet, every one seeks to rest under their own vine and fig tree. I don’t think that’s strictly capitalist indoctrination. People need places, spaces, situations, groups, creative outlets in which they have some basic autonomy. We could set up soup kitchens on every corner so that nobody is ever hungry, but for many that will fall far short of a “full happy life”. Like security from violence or shelter from the elements, a full stomach is foundational to happiness, that doesn’t mean it’s enough for most people.
