    Camels are pretty dang well designed creatures so I’d say the committee did pretty great there. And the alternative is being at the whims of a single person or a small group none of whom have any incentive to care about anything other than the enrichment of their own personal finances. It’s a literal autocracy.

    Governance structures where the workers own and have a say in the means of production are bound to have their own issues to be sure, but it beats out the current model.

      They might be good at being camels, but they’re terrible horses. And if you’ve ever tried to lead a group of more than a handful of people, you’d know they can never agree on shit. Someone has to make the call.
