Hello all, I am wondering can you point me to reading material or share ideas on how manifacure of medicine(and other things currently requiring complex supply chains) can be achieved in anarchist society?

    Is this a ‘how can we do complex production without capitalism’ question or a ‘how can we motivate people to do work without capitalism’ question?

    Former: Catalonia ran entire industries while at war. Something needs doing and it isn’t getting done? Volunteer, find people to help you, etc.

    Latter: I dunno, ask your mom how she cleaned and fed you for decades without financial compensation.

    Bonus: a significant portion of drug research at least in the US is (or was anyway) funded by the US government, so capitalists aren’t exactly doing all the work themselves.
