You know there's a range of options between unfettered capitalism and unfettered communism right?

Slap communism on a population that's spent the past few generations training itself to reward cunts and you get the USSR on steroids.

Worker ownership over the economy doesn't just mean communism. There are various socialist and anarchist approaches as well, and like you say a spectrum in-between.

There are even capitalist compatible options like workers cooperatives or novel solutions like mandating unions and union participation on the board.

I didn't say we need to implement communism, you did. But I'm down!
