Seize the Memes of Production
An international (English speaking) socialist Lemmy community free of the “ML” influence of instances like lemmy.ml and lemmygrad. This is a place for undogmatic shitposting and memes from a progressive, anti-capitalist and truly anti-imperialist perspective, regardless of specific ideology.
Rules:
Be a decent person.
No racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, zionism/nazism, and so on.
Other Great Communities:

Trading is the wrong paradigm already. Medical research is already publicly funded, too.
It's basically councils all the way down. A consumer council decides that a power plant is needed. It declares the powers and limits that a group of delegates has in order to facilitate the building of the plant. This includes the request for/acquisition of the necessary materials and needed workforce.
And if people don't want to build a power plant? Do your council beat them until they do?
If they don't want to build a power plant, why would they decide to build one? The council is made up of the people.
(You're kind of describing capitalism, btw)
So what are you going to give the people who build the power plant? Who will give them resources? How much?
They'd be given the resources they'd need to build the power plant. If not enough volunteers are found, they'd probably get some sort of benefit as a motivation. Like some luxury items or relief from some other public service.
The resources are given from the place were they're from.
