gollark: I mean, if you give a reasonable amount of money to people so they can buy things, they can... live okayishly... but still have an incentive to do work if they want more stuff.
gollark: How, exactly?
gollark: You might also just want more stuff and thus more money.
gollark: The "from each according to their ability, to each according to their needs" thing seems like it wouldn't produce much of an incentive to work, and also people *want* stuff as well as needing some stuff.
gollark: Also better taxes on externalities.
