No, actually that's straight up hyperbolic. There is no upper bound on the 20k employees' income i.e. not communism (or socialism even).

  Unless of course the governing body deems the massive revenue the 20k employees generate as "excess" and is confiscated for Basic Income in Africa - the company employing these people will have practical upper limits on what they can pay their employees as exists today - but with the additional caveat that governments can just take the money for "the common good." It's globalism. It's socialism/communism.

    So what happens in the (potentially short) period before the government deems that as excessive? Assume for a moment that they costed it out and it's sustainable.

    What you've described is taxes. so under your definition, all nations are today already globalist/communist/socialist.

      Is this really that far from the truth?
      • unprepare 10y ago
        yes, since communism has a defintion and isnt jsut some vague concept you can attach to any other system. Do the means of production belong to the state? if not , it isnt communism.
