You are way prouder of your logical abilities than you ought to be. You'er like a young violin player who wants to wow people by playing really difficult pieces though he flubs multiple sections instead of playing something simpler and learning to do it well.

Your initial statement about pleasure and money is reasonably solid, though pedestrian. After that it all falls apart. Your 'obvious' conclusion is full of holes. Economic equality wouldn't 'lead' to ineqal pleasure a state that already exists. Not solving a problem isn't the same thing as creating it.

You then state that we can't make people equally happy and bizarely conclude that this means capitalism is the best system. That's like saying you can't make an apple pie with oranges so thebest thing to do is play golf.
your final statement 'capitalism, which modifies pleasure ratios according to merit within the market system.' is supported in no way by any part of your argument. In addition, as far as I know there is no reliable system by which 'pleasure ratios' can be measured .

Stop the chin music. Your hubristic pride is going to thwart any potential you might have. You come across as an overly loquacious trained monkey. Try applying the critical skills you demonstrate to you own statements. Show a little rigour. You are a swirly begging to happen.
