Pearl Milling is Canadian. I've been using it since the first tariff wave. It's just as good. Yes, I'm back to turning "Product of USA" upside down.

Marx was pretty clear that's not how communism manifests. It's the final evolution state of socialism.
What you're suggesting is an inverse of what needs to happen in order to achieve the outcome you're seeking.
Only by creating a society that provides for every member within it can a context arise where there is no direct incentive to pursue for-profit ventures.
Outlawing profit, will just create demand for law enforcement without doing anything to replace the mechanism driving people to seek profit in the first place.
Really what needs to happen is they need to close tax loopholes and actually administer corporate income taxes responsibly instead of incompetantly like they are now.
I don't see why we can't provide everyone free food and shelter and also outlaw for profit companies.
Don't confuse nonprofits with non payment. People who do labour for nonprofits can still earn a million dollars a year in salary.
The difference is that nonprofits cannot give their profits to capitalists who do no labour for the org
It's the everyone part. You need to get everyone on board. That is A LOT of ducks to line up; to put it lightly. Forcing it via prohibitions without first addressing the underlying needs;
incentivizes non participation by both opponents who stand to lose and would-be supporters negatively effected by my 2nd point.
Has unforeseen outcomes resulting the same working class casualties we wanted to avoid in the first place
Basically it's easier said than done and there's no shortcuts like, 'outlawing for-profit". There are real logistical challenges are completely outside of capitalism at play. We have to do the hard work of building a self sustaining society first. Than we can remove vestigial constructs like capital and profit.
