I just heard a debate from someone that was adhering very closely to the Marx definition: “Under Communism, money would not exist”.
I can’t affirmatively say it wouldn’t work, but it is such a wild move from where we are, I can’t see pushing it on anyone with any assemblance of caution. Socialism can still be a sliding scale, and we can definitely turn it way up in a world where money exists, without any chance of causing harm.
see that is the thing. I have had people tell me marxist or true socialism you would still buy and sell things and then they repeat agnosium that the workers control the means of production. I find no one who is a big proponent can really say how its going to function except by good vibes.
