This is a truly important fact about socialist planning that I,
and I assume many others, did not know...
It's important information like this getting out to the world,
through Internet associations such as this Marxism List, that realizes a

I think that one of the main platform planks of our future
communist party must include a detailed plan to put such powerful economic
levers in the hands of local councils and workplace committees..!
