Look at what Hitler did? Fascism is a leftist, liberal ideology. Hitler was one of yours. The National Socialist Workers Party.

We think we know how to make a healthier and happier society. You think you know, and based on those thoughts you want to impose your ideas on everyone else.

In the 1920's there were millions in the KKK. They formed the heart and soul of the Dem party.

Go back tot the tribes we evolved from. They shared their kill and everyone had a different role, but a good tribe shared the food equally. 1 - They shared, but I doubt it was equal most of the time. The hunters and the leaders, and maybe others like shamans, an expert weapon and/or tool maker, or someone a good hunter or the leader wanted to have sex with, probably got extra. 2 - Your talking about bands ranging in size from a handful to dozens, at most the low hundreds range. Everyone knew each other. Everyone could see if someone else was slacking (and then they wouldn't get as much from the kill and might not get anything). Everyone could impose various social and practical consequences on others for not contributing or for doing something harmful. 3 - A modern capitalist economy involves complex trade and cooperation for profit outside of narrow tribal or family ties. And that distinction is crucial in explaining why we have so much more wealth, and so much more economic security and well being, then primitive tribal societies.
