>it's a mistake to believe the rich and powerful will allow such a society to exist since they'd be powerless in it.
I'm having trouble imagining how such a transition would even look. I mean, do we still have some sort of recognition of property rights for existing property? If not, then how are the currently owned resources "freed"?
If so, then the wealthy would still be wealthy and there'd still be "classes". So, I'm not sure they'd mind so much, but for consideration of their offspring (which I don't discount).
In either case, how do we go about allocating future resources?
