    Its not perfect therefore its not leftwing, gosh who could have predicted that.

    A gift economy being a (unproven in an industrialised context) way of running an economy other than a market system does not mean it is the only way of being outside a market system. A is not B does not imply that C is B.

    And you still need to account for resources, just handwaving gift economy does not relieve that pressure, you need a system for how much gets put into healthcare as opposed to education as opposed to transport as opposed to research. That means tracking resources numerically and that means something along the lines of money.

      Its not perfect

      Therefore your argument is imperfect. Correct your argument a little better, maybe you’ll convince us how King Charles should own more housing and food than the entire population of the UK, imperialist scum.

      And you still need to account for resources

      You really don’t.

      system for how much gets put into healthcare as opposed to education as opposed to transport as opposed to research

      In anarchy, everyone one of these gets supported. In UK, everyone of these get gutted. The priorities of privatizers are theirs, not ours.

      That means tracking resources numerically

      Again, nrly.

      money

      Which you know is theft.
