The problem with the modern capitalist society exzactly arises due to this belief that uncontrolled desire as the mover of progress and that all desires can be fulfilled and that the ability of nature to fulfill all desires is again unlimited. All these assumptions are beyond a certain level are farce and false. Religion and rational thought decry this tendency So growth needs to be redined. Socialism tries to define this in a humanistic tradition. It asserts the individual freedom is a factor a free society and not absolute. Gandhi stands for this definition. Tolstoy, Henry Thoreu and even Emerson stand for this. When you apply this corection o the modern society it is no longer capitalistic.
