This reminds me of communism and it's early pitches...
"If your neighbor has two chickens, then you get a chicken!!"
Gussy up the pig whatever you want, but authoritarianism develops anyways. It's merely a matter of time, and then your end result is a bankrupt state with aging technology and nonexistent intellectual property.
Pro-tip: Not all workers are equal, because the skill sets, costs and time to develop are not equal.
But anarcho-syndicalists dispise authority. thats why they shun the word "commune" (which indicates everyone being the same, thinking the same, etc.) and prefer a "co-op". syndicalism is a, for lack of better words and for the sake of simplicity, "co-op of individuals". Communism is authoritarian. syndicalists dispise and try to eradicate authority as much as possible. Communism forces everyone to comply. Syndicalism is based on what individuals are willing to come together for...wether as a single or as a group.
Sure, every governmental model has its problems. With this in mind, syndicalists prefer to avoid government all together (therefore ANARCHO-syndicalism). The one thing the vast majority of anarcho-syndicalists agree upon is that trade "codes" are what are the most important thing to be discussed. what standards of measurement should be used to ensure quality workanship. Safety protocols. Medical procedures. THESE are what should be the reason that counsels are formed and legislation made. There will be no government or state in a syndicalist society. It will be the representatives of different trades who come together to discuss the best way to move labor and production.
A syndicalist society, once time has set in, WILL make all workers equal. As syndicalism gives all people an equal share of the pie.
I should write a book on it
