[lbo-talk] Parecon Discussion...

[John Thornton]

I want to thank Michael Albert for taking the time to respond to my 
questions and concerns about parecon. While I did find his arguments about 
a the lack of need for a coordinator CLASS convincing (with slight 
reservations) I still remain unconvinced that remuneration for effort is 
preferable to severing the bond between work and pay. Unless you find 
coercion preferable to true freedom. I do not feel that people need to be 
coerced to work especially in an economic system such as parecon.
