The book After Capitalism, by David Schweickart, outlines capitalism as an economic model and proposes an alternative economic model: Economic Democracy. It is the answer to "what is the alternative then?" It is sound and possible. The movement of Occupy Wallstreet should adopt this theory as their guide and unite themselves under one movement and goal to end global hegemony and replace the corrupt exploitative capitalist regime with a new market based on humanistic, democratic principles.
Will definitely check it out. Is there a summary on line somewhere or wiki page link you recommend?

"Sooner or later but mus' ...The dam going to bus' ...and everyone will break out ...And who will stop them?... The force?... What force can stop this river of people who already know their course?"
