First, pick what you want to argue. If you think I am wrong in the other thread, reply there. The discussion there is ongoing anyway.
Second of all, everyone agrees it is best for capital to serve all of humanity. The disagreement is about how to best achieve that.
Third, cost cutting without affecting quality of goods is a good thing. If it does compromise quality, buying from companies that don't is the point. You are describing the system working.
And finally, it is not vibe based. It is rough outlines of probably over a hundred hours of study and thinking crammed into a few paragraphs. If you want details, I recommend starting by reading up on Game Theory, which is a branch of mathematics that models optimal "play" (behavior) given some goals and rules. This will help you evaluate if the people in your system are really forced to work in the best interest of everyone or if they can game your system to enrich themselves. Then look into macroeconomics to get an idea of what the rules are. And remember, laws are not unbreakable rules. Laws work more like: "If you break this law and get caught, this is the penalty".
If you can build a communist system (or any other really) that truly benefits the people without creating inequality, I see a Nobel price in your future.
Some areas to focus on:
I'm purely replying to your comments as they are.
No, you believe Capital should serve Capitalists, otherwise you would democratize production.
Cost cutting does affect quality of goods most of the time.
Your analysis here has absolutely been presented as vibes based.
Simple as.
I believe it is not possible to democratize production, that is what is at issue here. If it was possible, I am all for it. Lets continue in the other thread. I want to hear the specifics of how you would be able to run these planners and councils.
Worker co-operatives exist and are more stable. The Post Office and Fire Department exist and are stable. Ergo, you are wrong.
