Why would the wealthy consent to be part of anarchist communes? If they wouldn't and a socialist transition phase would be necessary, what reason do we have to believe that the socialist government would give up its power to the communes? Finally, even if such a society were possible, what would prevent its corruption and the formation of a government (probably worse than the original) by the more crafty and capable members of the communes?
