People run the gambit, from the best in human nature, to the worse. Mankind, in Star Trek, didn't follow the sloth that is part of human nature (and probably still persist in some form) ... however that doesn't mean that in one of those alternative realities in Parallels that there wasn't a ship that represents the universe where mankind did.
Capitalism is not the root of all evil, and neither is socialism (both being economic systems). If man were angels socialism may work, that's always been my opinion. But is mankind made of angels?
