So your response is about what Hakan wrote?

No. I don’t think it is so hard to understand. There are other “elements” or characteristics to a society important to me. Those elements don’t depend solely on economic system though so in my opinion it is not an argument for or against any particular system.
For example, I think that people have a right to do/sell/produce/whatever drugs if they want to. But that doesn’t mean I am thinking “gee it would be great if I and my kids were drug dealers.” While I accept that people should be able to do drugs if they want to, it doesn’t mean I want to be around them. So to use the drugs example: my “dream society I want to live in” (a stretch, but I will bite) is one where people CAN do drugs freely, but CHOOSE NOT TO do drugs.
Makes sense?
