I knew a guy who worked in a peanut butter plant back in the 70s. They tried “socialism” where there were four member teams. They’d vote on each other’s pay scale and stuff. The guy I knew was all excited and on board. But there was always at least one guy on the team who wouldn’t carry his weight. The experiment lasted about a year.
