None of that is accurate; not even close.

Survival of the fittest applies to ideas too, so there's a Darwinian mechanism at play with nearly everything, including organization of labor. We see the intellectually less-fit ideas such as communism get defeated by intellectually superior ideas such as private ownership and liberty.

It must be frustrating being so far from your ideal considering we've got much more liberty than you suggest we should.
