True. With (almost) unlimited Zero-Point/Vacuum Energy and FemtoTech 3D printing replicators in an endless matter environment like space then it's no longer a matter of private properties being valued for their artificial limit, but function. Just make another one. That said, I don't think of it as communism at all though, as that would require a central resource allocation and a rigid structure of government to enforce it, being about equity, not equality. The surface distinction might not look any different at a glance, but the underlying principles are vastly different. Collective vs Individuality, Minarchism vs Authoritarianism. I think we agree that big corporations and their interference in politics is what needs to change however. Especially patents, IP laws.
