community (town, city) donates money to people, who then use it to buy goods and services from companies (which make a profit that way) that are then taxed by the community.

    Ah yes, in the imaginary lazy river of money that never leaks.

    But what if it does leak? What if the river requires expansion? What if there’s a drought, and you need a backup source of water to keep the river flowing?

      Surpluses for the purposes of maintenance and expansion need to exist

      They do not need to be controlled by capitalists for the purposes of enriching themselves.
