Thanks, I guess it’s the “get whatever they want” part that doesn’t make much sense to me. What if what I want is astronomical, and I want to get it by doing as little work as possible? Who says whether I can or can’t have it?
Interesting, thanks. I guess a major element in how feasible that would be is in the administrative structure a community would use in deciding who gets what materials. Obviously if it’s a representative democracy, there’s huge incentive for corruption of the representatives if they have absolute control of who gets what.
Wouldn’t this be considered a state, though? I guess statelessness is another aspect that doesn’t make much sense to me.
I see, thanks. That’s something I’ll have to look into further, because it seems to me that it’s really a prerequisite for a functioning society.
I appreciate you going over all of that!

So the specifics of how a community would allocate resources without there being a state is considered more of an open question, then?
