Imagine grocery stores with no prices. You just walk in, get what you need, and walk out. Or maybe restaurant-cafeterias would be commonplace. In this system, even if someone was taking a disproportionate amount of food and wasting it, hoarding it, this would be addressed not by putting this person in a cage, but by figuring out why they were doing this and giving them help. If it becomes enough a problem, you can ration per individual. Food pantries already do this and it works fine, even within a capitalist society. The people who would be labeled thieves were not the ones taking the amount the nee for sustenance. It would be those conspiring to create scarcity out of abundance and use it to create power for themselves over others. And for that system to be stable, those thieves would need to be dealt with swiftly and effectively

“I have, which will surprise you not a little, been speculating - partly in American funds, but more especially in English stocks, which are springing up like mushrooms this year (in furtherance of every imaginable and unimaginable joint stock enterprise), are forced up to quite an unreasonable level and then, for the most part, collapse. In this way, I have made over £400 and, now that the complexity of the political situation affords greater scope, I shall begin all over again. It’s a type of operation that makes demands on one’s time, and it’s worth while running some risk in order to relieve the enemy of his money.”
