Capitalism doesn't work because people like to own everything.

But since people like to own everything the only thing that can possibly work must integrate capitalism in some way. Or else **** you - the people probably

I kind of don't see a distinction in a real world sense since there will always be someone leading the proles to build something, and that person will always see the product being more his/hers than theirs. So any means of production will always be to some extent personal property unless the leader/leaders is not sufficiently competent enough to quell the rabble and take what he/she sees as rightfully theirs.

I mean, stuff like bridges and roads that don't directly produce revenue can be "public", but factories? The leaders will never let the followers have them without a fight.

I think you'll find it was actually a guillotine blade that did that.

No they ****ing cannot. People are idiots. People are ants when it comes to anything larger than... a house I guess. They need leaders. Even if those leaders come from the proles, eventually those leaders will want more.
