Did the Democratic Economy prop up Capitalist business during covid lock down? How is that not a demonstration of an existing Democratic Socialism?

It's a bit of an art work of mine, the idea that welfare is actually an expression of freedom from capitalism, that should be available without any relation to employment. But has been and is currently mis marketed by capitalists.

Wells Tao your project is beyond my clumsy understanding, I tend to keep looking at it through an arts lens rather than a bigger picture, but I know the matrix of employment v unemploymnet, the Labour Market, is more complex than that. There's an (arts) economy of 'volunteers' or low income artists that prop up the cultural ecology of society, create and maintain our identity, our cultural capital, and that this isn't recognised economically. And I think it needs to be supported by government (a government with a cultural vision) or philanthropic individuals rather than the market, so the voice is from the heart, our heart, rather than having to meet mainstream commercial measures. Im not sure if this is what your project is about, but I know you're fighting the good fight xx
