Economic and political systems, being practical, and rooted in everyday life, are neither thought up by scholar-scientists, nor dreamed up by philosopher-theologians.
Rather, such systems are built from the ground up, exhibiting the fluid dynamics dictated by everyday human intercourse relative to its given environmental context.
Put another way, such systems spring not so much from the head and the heart, as they spring from the mouth, hands, and feet; yet, being affected by them all.
Thus, by extension, any replacement system, whether economic or political, must undergo a like apprenticeship to demonstrate its bottom-up efficacy to its people.
