But remember, you are not redistributing wealth, because there isn't any, but food and needed items.
So under your system, with no money, what if I want to leave my lights on all day? What if I have a 400 dollar electricity bill, when my neighbors is only 100?
What if I want to leave the water running all day? Is there any reason not to? Whose paying for it, right?
Capitalism has it's problems, but it is built for a long-term lifespan. History has shown that Communism and Marxism isn't built to last, despite some nice idea on paper.
