The Assault on Trump is about to Begin

Suppose someone did, though?  Suppose someone promoted a classless, egalitarian society in which the means of production was owned by the very people who worked it.

Jeus christ, that sounds terrifying, I can't keep my hands from trembling!   Uh...ugh, yep, I just shit myself.  

I think it would be much more fruitful in this case to specify common employee ownership, so that nobody can claim that the idea is to turn over the means of production to the government.

Of course, a fundamental disconnect between left and right is that we on the left have, as an ideal, a government which works to benefit its citizens and is accountable to them, where the right generally resents the idea that the federal government can interfere with state-level fiefdoms and prevent these states from functioning as fiefdoms. I don't know of anyone who professes a desire for Stalin-style communism (probably because almost no one actually does), but I'm sure there isn't any progressive or liberal in existence who actually does want government to control everything and wants only to work to enlarge it at any cost.

Indeed, progressives are all about minimizing government reach into quite a few important areas, women's uteri as just one prominent example.
