I don’t particularly care if one employee doesn’t work as hard as the others, as long as they do their job. Co-opts have already figured out how to fire people for non-performance. It’s a real job, with real responsibilities.
There’s also more than enough abundance produced worldwide, to where everyone could have a comfortable life, regardless of how hard they work. And with more and more automation, work itself need not ever apply again.
As to how broken governments are, the reason why is right wingers working for the last half century in a coordinated manner to actively break government. They call it “starving the beast” when “the beast” was just making sure roads were built and rivers didn’t randomly catch fire.
I’m sorry but you’ll not convince me. I still think such world isn’t viable economically, and has design flaws. Capitalism would work better is people weren’t selfish. Communism would work if people weren’t selfish, probably. Unfortunately, it’s not the case.
Thanks for being respectful though, appreciate it.
So, because no one would be allowed to exploit the people for profit, it’s not worth making the world a better place?
Even in the current capitalist society we have, a co-op can make money, (which is then shared equally with workers).
If every company and business were, by law, a co-op, without changing any other factor of society, you’d see all of that excess wealth that’s normally hoarded by the few reinvested into making the economy stronger.
Because right now, under capitalism, we’re always on the brink of a massive recession/depression. This is by design. See, the super rich can’t buy up everything on the cheap, if they don’t crash the economy every few years.
And that’s your economically viable. Working more hours for less pay so that a rich asshole can buy yet another vacation home.

I’m still hung up on you “economically viable”…
