Hmm, in Ayn Rand's fantasy worlds, the engineers would be the ones who own the machines and thus reap the benefits. So I think the proper criticism there would be that that's not how it works in the real world, and thus is not a good basis for one's philosophy.
I wonder if there's a term in political science for an ideology where the people who create and operate the means of production should also own and enjoy the benefits from it.
That sounds like it could have something to it. But I wonder - how would the people seize the means of production?
If only people would stop pretending those fantasy words had any resemblance to reality.
Honestly, society would be much better if marxists, anarchists, and etc just converted into delusional Star Wars fans or something like that.
Some parts of the world went 60 years in the 20th century without capitalists. Maybe not such a wild world, right? We just can do a bit better next time
