Are you saying, with a straight face, that what you're proposing / hoping for doesn't require a "massive change"?

Does this prove that we're ultra competitive by nature? Or does it prove that a small percentage of people are complete psychos and are very good at conning and manipulating the rest of us? Perhaps the system is largely a reflection of those people, not of the population as a whole.
It's a widely understood, basic concept that humans are ultra competitive by nature. The small percentage of people that you're labelling as "psychos" are just more competitive and therefore more successful.
