Snowdrift.coop is essentially trying to solve the same problem in a different way.
I don't think Snowdrift understands why communism failed (or economics in general).
Not sure how communism is relevant here. Snowdrift.coop's mechanism is entirely private and voluntary, and assuming that it works properly, it's incentive properties are superior to typical charities or governments.
If it's worth saying, but not worth its own post (even in Discussion), then it goes here.
