The establishment was the result of an idea from KLM director Albert Plesman.

Alumni
gollark: planned economy bad.
gollark: (which does mean that the current high inequality is somewhat problematic, but I'm not sure what the fix for that is unless you *can* somehow split economic/political power a lot)
gollark: (unless you can somehow strongly decouple them? it would be interesting if that could be done somehow)
gollark: You can, I'm sure, just complain that all examples of that aren't REAL communism. But really, centralized economic power leads to centralized political power.
gollark: But *persecuting* individuals instead of just being broken and failing them... well, there are probably examples, I just don't know how exactly to find them.
