This sounds like a comic book's description of economic structures where everything is black and white and there are no ifs or buts.
Maybe I should write economic tracts for socialists and ancap Libertarians.
Can you give an example of 'central planning' in the modern world
I've seen what happens when huge companies start to mandate that, "All new coding will be in Java. All databases will be on Oracle..." That never works. Everyone figures out a way to drag their feet and bring that to a halt. What does work? Doing something like mandating that all systems will be accessible over Webservices. That opens up resources within the company interacting in new ways as they see fit.
