It is both, it is an example of libertarian communism, it is based on need not money and it is a decentralised organisation based on free agreement.What makes this organization "communist" as opposed to "charity"?
People would likely decide to take turns doing these, it is nothing that can't be worked out by free agreement, things like the rigid division of labour and long working days would not exist.And there are lots of crappy jobs that can't. Why would anyone choose to "develop their creative potential" in those jobs if they had no incentive to do so?
Capitalism only came into existence by denying most access to the means of production, with things like enclosure, merchantilism etcNonsense. I consider myself mainly a capitalist, and I have no desire to deprive anyone of access to means of production. They should have the right to start any business they want to, within the bounds of the rights of others.
It is called primitive accumulation.The state alos does much to maintain this situation.
Right so you'd annoy those in your community, who would be alot closer to you than todays communities so you can take more than you need?Because I can?
Well nothing is set in stone, there are no blueprints for libertarian socialism, but as long as the land or property isn't in direct use or occupancy it cannot be owned,so you could if that was true.So if I want to build my home on your commune free of charge, but don't wish to provide anything for the commune...that would be OK?
If you don't contribute it would be up to the local community they probably would give you necessities but wouldn't have to if they don't agree that is the point, people come to live in communism freely because they think it is best for them so agree to it, if they don't want to abide by the rules they are free to leave.
And as we don't agree with anything but direct occupancy and use property then anyone would be free to use unused land.
This is the kind of thing libertarian communism is based on, decentralised free agreement where things are distributed by need.I don't understand what this organization has to do with anything. It sounds like a pretty standard charity to me. And it's certainly not a society that has an economy of its own.
The point is that we believe the general point of capitalist public education is to make you docile drone for the system.You can get an education in any field you want to, whether there's a job market for it or not.
