  1. The great virtue of capitalism is that it harnesses human greed to the building of civilization. Socialism leaves greed undirected. The effect is an institutionalized corruption, random in nature, and individual in purpose. In order to succeed, socialism would require refinements in human character that are still on the horizon.

  2. "Refinements in human character" meant no one can or will exempt themselves, or seek to enrich themselves at others' expense. These "refinements" are all about "doing what's right" WITHOUT EXCEPTION, every time, because you wouldn't think to imagine otherwise. That's "character". Sorry for the confusion.
