Have you ever been starving? I don't mean very hungry, I mean truly starving. As in, your body is indicating that you are dangerously underfed by creating internal suffering the likes of which you have never known. It's a special kind of hell, starvation, like burning from the inside out.
See, it's not really about how income and wealth are distributed, it's about that our very survival depends on our ability to produce a profit for some employer. That is unethical, that is serfdom.

If you want to understand capitalism, you need to understand the historical realities from which it was born. Study feudalism and the transition to modern capitalism, and you will truly understand it as the neo-feudal, violence-backed system that it is.
To create a better world, we must provide decent food, shelter, healthcare, and education to all human beings as a birthright. Once that's done, the rest will fall into place, as it won't matter so much how you determine resource distribution if you have already eradicated illiteracy, homelessness, and starvation.

Compassion is the noblest form of wisdom, that is the heart of my philosophy.


Yes, I am familiar with the argument of "Structural Violence" and familiar with being poor, on the brink of death and starving as well. Why don't you answer my questions so we can have a polite discussion and possibly I can learn from you?

I am curious to understand a hypothetical scenario of how income and wealth distribution would be handled under your philosophy.

Would the NAP be followed? Would a social contract be imposed upon the unborn? Aren't there enough anarcho-communists out there where you could crowdfund your resources and build your own test model city to show the rest of the world how much better your ideals are?(You understand that in the US the IRS has exceptions for non-profits and certain religions which allow you to not be taxed on your land if you do not function for profit in a capitalist manner, right?)
