The workers run things. The crazy idea is thinking that society can’t run without trust fund brats who contribute nothing while siphoning away 90% of the resources.
Millions of people can’t run things? It seems pretty clear by now that small groups of people especially can’t be trusted to run things. You’ve got to hear about this thing they call democracy. It’s the tits. It can balance precariously, but it’s the most free way to live.
The idea isn’t to have too many cooks. If management is required, workers elect them from among their ranks. They serve for a term or two, then get replaced and go back to being workers. The workers can impeach them by vote. Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to fire your lousy boss? Doesn’t that make a lot of sense? The point is that nobody should ever be allowed on top for too long. Management should not be a position considered on top of others. The workers must have the final say in how a company and a government are run.
The only reason a few people are allowed to become fabulously wealthy and powerful is because we never established democracy in the workplace. The workers owning the means of production is the most basic principle of communism. Communism cannot exist as a dictatorship, it’s antithetical to it. Communism is radical democracy at all levels.
Communism depends on nobody being allowed on top.
Then who runs things? You can’t govern as a committee of millions
