The encampments we created showed on a small scale what a society not geared around making profits for the 1% could be like. Did we charge people for the food we served? Did we charge rent for tents? Did we make people pay for gloves, coats, and first aid? No! Everyone was fed, housed, and given clothes despite our limited means.
We didn’t use markets, we used common sense.
And we did it without creating bosses or rulers from our own ranks, without creating our own armies or engaging in police brutality of our own making.
Why not replicate that on a bigger scale?
Why not replace capitalism and markets with something a lot more efficient and humane: commonsense?
