Capitalism Could be used to create a truly egalitarian Society

I think the primary problem with our monetary system is that it functions in a vampiric fashion. If money is just energy, then we have some HUGE vampires sucking and hoarding that energy, and in fact the average joe behaves in a very vampiric fashion with money, as well - absorbing, storing, and/or using for self-aggrandizement. People need to get used to the idea of abundance instead of being taught to focus on lack. The shift needs to be that money should start being used as an expansive energy source, growing more for all instead of for a few. Capitalism as it is requires a system of winners and losers, a hierarchy, a competition. Competition is fun and all but not when the losers don't have homes or food to eat.
