    It would also just be neat to live in the presence of justice. If I look up and there's no imperial war, I'd feel a little dopamine. If working in a kitchen wasn't awful and there was no ghoul of a manager hovering over the place "disciplining" the people that worked there, then maybe fast food wouldn't be such a meme. Maybe people could care about feeding the community. Maybe casual conversation with a customer wouldn't be such a nightmarish experience. These things would be nice and antithetical to what either party is suggesting.

      Maybe people could care about feeding the community.

      My dream scenario socialism involves local cafeterias where people who like cooking can feed the community while those who don't can just eat and not have to worry about preparing shit 2-3 times a day every day.

        This is my dream, too. If I woke up and suddenly didn't need to worry about money ever again, my family and I would probably spend the rest of our lives gardening and making community soup like Big Kinook.
