There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!
Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.
- ex. How do I change oil
- ex. How to tie shoes
- ex. Can you cry underwater?
Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!
Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐.

Yes, 100%. Look into cybersyn and what it was able to accomplish with its highly limited means. Technology since 1991 alone has progressed massively and would be a far more effective tool for organizing a economy that meets peoples needs than the soviets ever had access to. They took a 90% feudal society to fucking space in 40ish years and they largely did it on paper.
To be clear though. Planned economies already exist and function quite well on these systems. They just aren't working in your interest. Verticle integration is a planned economy. Corporations organize their planned economies quite well and the work already done could be applied far more effectively to provide for people. It's just not what those systems are for under capitalism.
