Have we failed in providing a humane system when half the world lives on less than 2.5$ a day?

Clearly it is not that we dont have enough resources, but rather that we dont use them efficiently. It is an international profit based system that is at fault. This is the system that creates wars for access to resources and influence. If everything is rooted in economics, surely it a result of the global economic system. Profit is merely the degree of exploitation, so fundamentally the system is flawed. What is considered economic prosperity is caused by exploitation. No market mechanism can eliminate the ills caused by the system. Perhaps we need to look beyondwhat we've been feed and realize there is a more efficient way of organizing our resources.
