      We should consider the fact that the current system is not viable and not be afraid to critique it or look towards alternatives. Why are you so knee-jerkingly defensive of capitalism?
      Cuba has a higher life expectancy than the US.
      China has a higher median wage than some European countries.

      I would simply remove the baby first. it's not a good metaphor for your purposes because throwing a baby is actually difficult to do by accident, whereas throwing out bathwater without a baby is very easy and does not in any way require that. In this case we would retain labor- and lifesaving industrial technologies, but reject the hoarding of profit and the enslavement of human existence.
