Capitalism incentivizes producing value
It incentivises producing a perceived value. So faking value works just as well as providing real value
Not sure why you are down voted. Marx argues that the secret to value is human labor, and capitalists exploit labor to capture surplus value.
Progress requires human labor. It doesn't matter what government or ideology you use.
I think some folks, especially of the marxist POV, argue that labor is the work that you sell to make money. Progress and government require work. It's not necessarily labor.
