gollark: It isn't really, though; it seems like it would be more like whoever runs "production" just deciding who gets things.
gollark: If we just throw in assumptions like "and also we can make everything everyone needs with basically no human labour" then you can get away with doing different things, but this is not actually the case.
gollark: Would be nice, but isn't there yet.
gollark: And "negotiates resources" how?
gollark: What? That makes even less sense. So some unlucky people are in "production", and everyone else does ???.
