Lest my discussion thread should become off-topic (I asked a very different question), I put my rationale of rejecting consumerist economic models of Capitalism in an independent thread here
@ Ecurb Noselrub: please check the thread.
@ Bigredfutbaol: I think you will get a partial answer in the above thread. In brief, a non-consumerist economic model of Capitalism will focus on a low energy, low consumption attitude of consumers, encourage consumers to recycle very efficiently (with incentives), put an ethical level of personal consumptions, envision a collaborate and survive principle rather than compete and win.
