Huh? What? That's impossible because humans have a drive to compete with eachother and get ahead of others. That's a good thing in a system that allows anyone to take advantage of that. 

Also, why would you want to do that? It would destroy the drive in people to better themselves or to take any action that helps themselves.

Well, I was mainly speaking in terms of economic competition. There'd still be ways of competing, like in sports or video games and other things like that. However, in terms of people's livelihood, it should not be that way, because there'll always be people that lose out. There's also other things that drive people other than competition. Babies and little kids, for example, are obsessed with learning, and are heavily driven by the desire for knowledge.

So, what is the system that promotes the economic competition? As far as I'm concerned, the economic system aims to increase (global) GNP, that in turn reduces poverty.
