The Exchange of Goods Under Communism
Curious commie: I have seen much talk about no system of currency in a Communist society. My question is, for those that support such a system, how does the exchange of labor and goods take place exactly? I must profess ignorance on this issue. Enlighten me!
'Jucheist'/Stalinist: theres currency, its just used to buy only what state allows you to buy like food, clothing, ect. but nothing that really isnt a necessity.
Marxist: Yeah, if this is your revolution 'comrade' rest assured I'd be agitating among the working class to overthrow you before the end of the first week. Swap the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie for the dictatorship of the state-capitalist party functionaries? Fuck that.

Presented as a series of 25 questions and answers, it’s a sort of FAQ on what has come to be known as ‘Marxism.’
