I mean, you could also go the Communalism route which essentially decentralized planning among towns/cities. Economic, social and political decisions are made by direct democracy from local assemblies (a la Paris Commune) or confederations of municipalities to avoid instances of decisions of one town hurting another. You get the benefits of public ownership without the issues of a small group of people in the capital deciding what works best for random communities that they likely have no idea about. Google Murray Bookchin posted:its aim is not to nationalize the economy or retain private ownership of the means of production but to municipalize the economy. It seeks to integrate the means of production into the existential life of the municipality such that every productive enterprise falls under the purview of the local assembly, which decides how it will function to meet the interests of the community as a whole.

January 9th I should be starting my internship at an hiv/aids clinic serving low income people in my community. We also help find them food and housing if they need it. I'm going to help where I can but if we were under full communism it would be easier.
