Imagine if everyone in the neighborhood aggregated their tools in one facility so that everyone didn&#39;t have to buy their own drill press, circular saw, lawn mower, etc.</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@mcc" class="u-url mention">@<span>mcc</span></a></span> i mean i&#39;m with you on wanting 1 item and not getting it often</p><p>even amazon is bad for it</p><p>but like. idk</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> if you&#39;ll look you&#39;ll notice i worded my previous post very carefully; maybe i could have worded it even more carefully (&quot;could&quot; instead of &quot;would&quot;). also it&#39;s possible that corporations are small communisms?</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@mcc" class="u-url mention">@<span>mcc</span></a></span> *was* this solved by communism</p><p>like i guess it was in the sense that you probably had a job and the jobsite probably had rubber bands</p><p>but this is still true under capitalism. just. need an office</p>

(And somehow the old company always has new money magically free up shortly after I submit my notice.)</p>
