Under collective ownership no one
would have the incentive to do any of
these things because the people as a
whole would own and control. Can it

goods as good as possible?
The wage worker receives under pri-

what he would get under collective
ownership, for the simple reason that
under collective ownership there
would be no individuals standing be-

absorb the larger part of them.

Well, there are three ways:
LIST. Confscate them, as we did
withsthe slave property in the Civil
War.
+ End. Buy Them, giving bonds in pay
ment, to be paid gradually just as we
have bought our water systems.
3rd. Establish government factories
to sell at cost, which would put pri-

make profit, out of existence.
