gollark: Central planning isn't very good and would quite plausibly be much worse than what we have *now*, and what are the benefits of this system exactly?

gollark: Well, you seem to have a different system in mind to them.

gollark: Some questions, then:- what form are they taking tax in- how big are the communities- where are things produced- how is production of things coordinated if it can't be done entirely by one community

gollark: Okay.

gollark: (And might make things worse, since you can't trade between communities as easily)
