Yes, I espouse market economics -- without the profit motive,
either capitalist or market socialist. Society can retain sites
of activity (firms) that are a source of initiative. They must
face the test of selling their products and services -- a market.
Society can involve firms in overall planning at the same time.

So please stay here. You continually show us that the progressive
arena right now is the Nader-Green movement.

If you're reading Capital vol. I, you might also like From
Capitalism to Equality (http://www.LaborRepublic.org), which also
expands on the market idea above.
