I like some of the Zeitgeist ideas WRT open source movements and certainly people growing their own food (https://www.facebook.com/foodisfree), but I thought I had seen that there was some ultimate point where computers would be decision-makers, which would likely end up with some coder manipulating the system in their favor. If I am wrong about that, then definitely correct me.

WRT replacing capitalism, capitalism is just humons compartmentalizing natural selection in an economic sense, without realizing that natural selection pervades every aspect of everything. “Capitalism” is continuously evolving, whether people talk about replacing it or not.
