For when you need a laugh!

The definition of a "meme" here is intentionally pretty loose. Images, screenshots, and the like are welcome!

But, keep it lighthearted and/or within our server's ideals.

Capitalism fundamentally has issues with it that cannot be solved via regulation. There is absolutely no reason why it's necessary that there be petite dictators in charge of Production, rather than democratic control.

If the democratic control is centralized, you will have the same problem.

In an economy of worker coops, there is democratic control, but it is decentralized in nature @memes

You will not. You may run into new issues, but unlike Capitalism, this will be democratically accountable, rather than entirely unaccountable and enforced as such by the state.

You cannot have a "decentralized Capitalism," all Capitalism trends towards centralization.
