    So all tools will be government property. If I want a hammer, I have to fill out a form, requesting one from the government. Brilliant, Kid. You've solved the world's problems.

    The trick isn't to break some eggs to make an omelette, it's convincing the eggs to break themselves in order to aspire to omelettehood.

        Kid, somebody will have to be the one who hands out the hammers.

        Or do you expect us to find out who has the hammer and then try to get in on the list of folks who needs the hammer? If so, who keeps the list. They're the one with power, authority, the ability to exploit.

        In short, how do you expect the hammer to be handled, inventoried, stored, etc? How are 2,000 hammers to be allocated among 300,000 citizens? Somebody has to keep track of them, and that person is the new exploiter in Kids system.... the exploiter that the system is supposed to do without.

        And I'm still trying to figure out how I can live in this world, one with a minimum of twenty stores that sell hammers in a 5 mile radius (for less than 2 hours of minimum wage), and be considered exploited by the hammer merchants. It just blows my mind.

            Just like they are today. Brilliant, Kid: you trying to argue yourself into a third circle before the day is out?

              I read your post, Kid.

              You said tools would be community property.

                But a commodity that is owned by all cannot have prices placed upon them, can they? For the price is merely what one individual would have to give another individual for the hammer, and with the community owning it, there is nobody to set the price.

                Who has the pricing authority, Kid? Somebody has to, it just doesn't "happen."

                  Charge more for the newer ones.
                  so, basicly, you charge a higher price for newer, more in demand tools, and less for older less in demand ones.

                  So, what you are saying is, we have a free market system for the use of tools?

                    If you want to believe that that is a free market system that's fine.

                          The price is set by the planners. It provides information about demand for the good or service and it allocates the good or service to where it is needed or desired the most.

                              So the planners will become the exploiters? And please don't sprinkle your fairy dust and have us believe that their won't be any corruption involved there.
