If the wealthy are allowed to take their wealth, they should also be able to take the factories since that is their property.
I just don't think the communist labor system could work either since there are some jobs no one would take without compensation. The thing about the average WalMart employee is true, but that is because the person is not compensated.
The more local the unit, the more the person will take interest. Localities are more important to the person than cities or states, but not as important as the family or the individual.
So I can agree on decentralization of government, the more the better. But I don't see where removing all personal incentives will work to produce growth. If a person is stuck in a locality and the locality is the smallest unit, then the individual can be oppressed by the tyranny of the majority. The individual must be free to seek fortune, destiny, whatever the driving force or personal goal, wherever it may be.
Capitalism is unfortunately the best we have to enable this individualism. But unfortunately we've become lazy capitalists, addicted to material more than freedom. Communism is not the answer. It's even more materialistic.
