    I don’t think you can get to communism where there’s a relatively small group in power tasked with dividing the means of production. That power will be abused like oligarchs do now.

      Yeah, I agree with that. Mass centralization is bad regardless of the situation IMO. We need collaboration instead.

      I’m personally a fan of Prof Wolff’s idea to force all corporations to surrender ownership to their workers, converting them into worker-owned coops. This would largely mitigate the ability for extreme wealth concentration to happen to begin with, especially if combined with other wealth-limiting regulations.

        What would be the motivation then to even start a company/corporation if every time it happens, it is seized and given away?
