between capitalism (all power to Capital!) and market and collective decision making.

Market is neutral, it's just place of exchange - goods, ideas, etc., and as such not dependent from any economic theory. Also gift economies take place on market.

And cap and trade is programmed for failure because it's capitalist smoke screen.
