gollark: Anyway, the linear programming thing: just how do you assign values for millions of different end-product goods? If you have people vote on it, they'll probably only be remotely competent to decide on a summary or something, and the process of translating the summaries into full plans will probably involve someone making subjective decisions themselves and influencing the process.
gollark: Yes, that is very silly.
gollark: And each of those needs its own inputs.
gollark: If you want, say, 100000 winter coats (large) (blue), you also have to produce a lot of dye (blue), fabric, factories for coat production, and all that.
gollark: Anyway, the best mathematical thing for central planning is apparently "linear programming", and to make that useful you need to decide on (in some form) the "value" of each output of your production.
