"...from each according to his ability to each according to his need"


It works when people have the same values. That is why ECHO-nomics is the major binding force. There are various conflicts when people do not share the same values. One prime example is that of a National Health Care system. Who decides what health care modality an individual utilizes? If a person decides to take toxic vaccines because that is what they value, should individuals that know better have to be burdened by such decisions, and vice versa?

Will the state enforce its will through terror and imprisonment for those whose values differ?

The Authoritarian nature of the systems in place would like to compose the lives of individuals to fit the narrative. The two main components which bind all of mankind together could be determined as EC(h)O-nomics and EC(h)O-logy.

"Economics is the social science that analyzes the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services. The term economics comes from the Ancient Greek οἰκονομία (oikonomia, "management of a household, administration") from οἶκος (oikos, "house") + νόμος (nomos, "custom" or "law"), hence "rules of the house(hold)".[1] Political economy was the earlier name for the subject, but economists in the latter 19th century suggested 'economics' as a shorter term for 'economic science' that also avoided a narrow political-interest connotation and as similar in form to 'mathematics', 'ethics', and so forth.[2]"

Ecology (from Greek: οἶκος, "house"; -λογία, "study of") is the scientific study of the relations that living organisms have with respect to each other and their natural environment. Variables of interest to ecologists include the composition, distribution, amount (biomass), number, and changing states of organisms within and among ecosystems. Ecosystems are hierarchical systems that are organized into a graded series of regularly interacting and semi-independent parts (e.g., species) that aggregate into higher orders of complex integrated wholes (e.g., communities). Ecosystems are sustained by the biodiversity within them. Biodiversity is the full-scale of life and its processes, including genes, species and ecosystems forming lineages that integrate into a complex and regenerative spatial arrangement of types, forms, and interactions. Ecosystems create biophysical feedback mechanisms between living (biotic) and nonliving (abiotic) components of the planet. These feedback loops regulate and sustain local communities, continental climate systems, and global biogeochemical cycles.

By controlling these two mechanisms, EC(h)O-slavery is achieved. Though it is merely an echo of the honest slavery of the past, its implications are no different, except rhetorically. The link (binding) is undeniable in realistic terms. Ultimately the difference between authority wielding heirarchical systems is who is accountable and how is their leadership implemented. The ends to the means are the same...control of "society".

Being part of "society" is compulsory. And individual choice while under leadership an illusion, except when granted by the said authority.

What exactly are the shared values of communism? What are the shared values of capitalism?

"Anarcho-capitalists

  • Economist Murray Rothbard "we must first decide what the meaning of the term 'capitalism' really is. Unfortunately, the term 'capitalism' was coined by its greatest and most famous enemy, Karl Marx. We really can't rely upon him for correct and subtle usage. And, in fact, what Marx and later writers have done is to lump together two extremely different and even contradictory concepts and actions under the same portmanteau term. These two contradictory concepts are what I would call 'free-market capitalism' on the one hand, and 'state capitalism' on the other. The difference between free-market capitalism and state capitalism is precisely the difference between, on the one hand, peaceful, voluntary exchange, and on the other, violent expropriation."
