    Through communal ownership of capital and what it produces, you do not need money as people can just take what they need.

    Okay. I need a thing that’s only available in limited amounts and other people are of the mind they need it too.

    What now?

      Increase production to meet demand. Build more infrastucture to increase capacity. If demand isn’t being met, do what you have to do to meet demand. If its something urgent, people should discuss how to temporarily ration (in the case of stuff like food) or share (in the case of something reusable like a computer) till they are able to supply enough to meet demand.

        It’s so simple for you, isn’t it, not having to consider reality?

        “Just increase production until you make enough, lol what’s the issue???”

        Let’s say there’s a natural disaster, or a disease wipes out a crop. Not enough to go around for your avocado salad. “Just increase production.”

        Honestly this is exactly why I didn’t reply in the first place. There’s no point in this, you have zero understanding of logistics or basic economy. All you have is a very naive hippie dream.

          If a natural disaster hits other communities can aid. We already have that, look at when Haiti was devastated by hurricanes and earth quakes, look at Florida. People send aid to help till they can help themselves. And in the cases where things aren’t able to be produced enough for everyone like say cars. There are more economical solutions like the various means of public transportation. I am not suggesting everyone gets the finest things, but that their needs are met one way or another. Let the producers and consumers work together to solve problems, not letting an arbitrary market or corporate stouges decide what peoples needs are and how to meet them
