You mean like a Market Socialist or something?
A what?
Someone in favor of a market economy run by worker-owned entities.
Not wholly opposed to that, markets can serve the purpose they're designed for, and I could see an evolution of cybersyn that helps run the economy using simulated markets.
I certainly think it's much better than current Capitalism, that's for sure, though it's not enough to truly reach the finish line.
As a Mutualist, while there are a few things that could be better centralized, I'm in favor of a full worker consumer cooperative economy. Housing, groceries, and, utilities all work better as cooperatives, but capitalist have enough wealth to often push cooperatives out in other markets.
