People who believe in Central Planning are like Polka Lovers who live in a world of Heavy Metal Fans. Years ago an English Professor told me that when 4 professors were told they made the same real salary they all left for the US. Human Beings love strife and conflict. That's why the answer to a Libertarian is The Mafia. Only a small favoured minority would accept such a society, the rest of the people, wouldn't. The people who make the rules will generally be despised by the people who don't. Free Banking? Makes sense to anyone who doesn't realize no one, I mean no one, trusts bankers. Try telling people we want them to accept the same salary. Sorry Chester, I'm not satisfied making the same salary as Lard-Ass Ken. What planet are you from? I wish I lived on Organia, but I don't
I wonder how much of Stafford Beer's cybernetics of corporate management and the proposed management of the Chilean economy for Allende, was based on Marxist thinking? His nested structure seems rather rigid and unwieldy to me, but he had guru status and impressed the class back in the 1980s when I was at a UK business school doing my MBA.
That's a very important segment of the book. There was a time when Economic Systems used to be a required course for an undergraduate degree. National Income Accounting used to be another. I certainly had both. The Systems courses had really coo, scholarly reading lists. Teachers asked students to compare and contrast; discuss, debate. The courses probably served two other purposes: 1) They reined in young folk that aspired to be too Lefty; 2) They checked argumentation through slogans. Not anymore, I suspect. I would prescribe segments of your book if I were teaching such a course.
