Respectfully, that's a very loaded statement, as evidenced by the absence of a clearly-stated point. My reaction is twofold:
1. You seem to be implying that ultra-liberal capitalist societies abound. I disagree to the extent that most economies/political-systems incorporate social elements that tend to push the dial back towards resource sharing. I do, however, concede that there has been a trend towards liberalism in recent decades, but this is accompanied by increasing social instability. I don't see how your comment constitutes a counter-point in this respect.
2. It's not really artificial given the two priors discussed above:
a) accumulation of wealth (and the subsequent inequalities in entrains)
b) low social trust
Again, this should not be interpreted as a defense of ultra-liberal capitalism, but I think it's so entrenched precisely because it follows naturally from the aforementioned preconditions.
