No, but you should not be allowed to accumulate more than what you can consume when your community is starving
What should happen is that the people who haven't sowed the crops could do some work in order to earn access to the crops. Then we could create some kind of system whereby people get rewarded for the work they provide with an abstract token. We could call this money and people could exchange it for goods and services.
Or those that are able to farm can do that and provide the food for those that can cook and provide that for those that can build who can provide that for those who can sew etc etc and all that can be shared with those who can't do anything because at the end of the day a person's worth should not be determined by what they can provide.
If you can't provide anything at all please tell me what the value of their life is? They better provide some dam good conversations. Cuz if the people are starving? I'm not wasting food on people that can't contribute anything.
Sounds about right. You vote Republican, right?
You poor soul. You've been indoctrinated so hard by capitalism that you can't value a human life if that life can't give you something.
I hope you don't have pets.
