That's fine if he wants to but why would he want too?
For trade?
Thats fine
Also
but once it becomes controlling it has to be anaylzed, ctiqued, and if need be fixed
Other farmers would want to buy his surplus
If the rest of the people don’t, they will
Someone will buy it
If he makes enough of it
Or
If the quality is better
Thats true, and then they can participate in a gift economy
But it will really only be trading surpluses
However if the farmers buy the food they will be sacrificing something of their own so that they can give that food to the rest of the commune
Would at least some of them not want to be paid for it
They don't have to give anything to the commune
Its all voluntary
For support of the commune
Well yeah but I’m just saying that a market system forming is inevitable
Markets are fine, capitalism is not
And Markets themselves can be regulated or even abolished depending on a commune vote
How could they be abolished
If they were abolished, people would stop providing goods
Not really, they would just provide to the commune or keep for themselves
Collectivized job sites also kind of form their own commune
But that would mean a crucial main source of a good for the commune is now gone
Why would they do that
Why would who do what?
Eliminate markets
And other people who are a part of the commune would pick it up
and eliminating markets is just meaning the gift economy
though it would probably follow from the abolition of currency
Why would they pick it up though
This particular farmer or farmers were the best in their firld
Cause they don't want to starve?
Field
They made the highest quality food and knew how to farm
Eventually the cycle will happen again
Another farmer will be the best
And they will get frustrated
