Yes, essentially, we need to get rid of corporate communism as it destroyed every industry it touched. Farming is now centralised and controled by a handful of corporate politburos, software, media, everything else. So called capitalism is dead, this is not capitalism we are experiencing. Otherwise you'd have many small farms and businesses in general that freely move capital and products around.
- ainiriand 3y agoIn capitalism, capital de tend to concentrate.
- gumballindie 3y agoAt extreme ends capitalism manifests itself like communism: oversight, concentration of power and capital in the hands of few, and so on. Proper capitalism means that capital flows freeley around all layers of society. In corporate communism and communist socialism capital clogs. Doesn't flow naturaly, it's slowed down, stored, accessible to and managed by those few.
- ainiriand 3y agoLooks to me like the same rethoric of those that speak the virtues of true communism. I heard the song many times already.
- greenie_beans 3y agoyes, we should go to a decentralized system where the community or workers own the farm.
- gumballindie 3y agoYes, we used to call them: "small business" or "family owned business" or "family owned farm". A distant concept these days. Sometimes these would have their interests represented by the people they elect in local councils or governments, as opposed to these forms of governance taking orders directly from national central planning bureous, known as boards, by means of lobbying.
- cooper_ganglia 3y ago"Decentralized farming" is such an HN thing to say. I get it and fully agree, but man, that got a good laugh out of me, haha.
- greenie_beans 3y agoi was trying to appeal to a certain audience with the "decentralized" word. tech ppl love that word, especially when describing any sort of enterprise system. know ur audience!
