The plan/article doesn't address:
- Bundling
- Innovation/Productivity
- Incentives
Also, if you decommoditize things you can't trade them for other things. So, the commodities that are left would become that much more relatively expensive.

- claudiawerner 7y ago>Also, if you decommoditize things you can't trade them for other things. The idea is that this trade-off would be better in some way than the current situation. Commoditization necessarily optimizes for exchange-value over use-value. Therefore it can be included in the circuit of capital (M-C-M') and the incentive for its trade is no higher goal than augmenting money-capital. Now you need to summon the invisible hand to say that somehow, in a roundabout way, being a commodity is actually better.
- sharemywin 7y agoIf your the one selling the commodity then it becomes free. If you want to say trade that for land, food etc. good luck.
