>>2497896Some examples of decoupling.
1. if a group agree that it want all needs satisfied, it will do production of food, houses, etc, if it will require 1 h/day, so be it, so long they will work. They also produce some food, etc for exchange for Tv movies, etc, but they consume less of it, it is not their goal. While this group will not do exchange, but there will be group 2. That group that wants to consume more things, like many cars, many shows, etc. They will exchange things, they do not try to figure their goal, it is just exchange, they can't enjoy less working hours.
2. free software producers and users, is a group that decoupled from proprietary software. They do not consume it. They write free software, not all of them, not as commodity, there is no exchange between free software producers. They still get back to exchange when it is not free software.
3. any firm is decoupled, in a factory workers do not exchange 1 detail for detail 2; but it is a signle firm, it is no use.
But you need an agreement in the group, why and what it wants. If there is no agreemnt, you can't work less, you can't work as you want, labor is forced, etc. You can may be work less to a degree, if you stop producing surplus, but.. the surplus is spent on luxury by bourge. This surplus labor time, may be will be made free by reducing work day, but may be not, it will just be spent for example, on making more Tv shows.
