Whats the difference between a Command Economy and a Marxist Communist Economy?
In a communist economy, the workers themselves control the means of production. Communism is not government control of everything, that’s just what people call Stalinism or other brands of Authoritarianism. Communism is the advocation of a stateless, classless society managed by workers. Stateless = Government-less. “The State” means the government. Classless = No upper-, lower-, and middle- classes. Advocation of “wage slavery” in which an executive pays the workers a very small portion of the amount he gets from THEIR work. In communism, the workers co-operate and vote on company decisions, there are no executives or CEOs, just the workers. The “free market” would be controlled by the common man. Also, some communists believe in the abolition of money, although I don’t know very much at all about how that would work out.
