Constantly bombarded by these imposed ​“free choices,” forced to make decisions for which we are mostly not even properly qualified (or about which we possess inadequate information), our ​“freedom of choice” increasingly becomes a burden that causes unbearable anxiety and that deprives us of the true choice of change  —  the choice (or rather, decision) to move beyond market-freedom into the freedom of collectively organizing and regulating the process of production and exchange. It is more and more becoming clear that only in this way will humanity be able to cope with antagonisms that threaten its very survival (ecology, biogenetics, ​“intellectual property,” the rise of the new class of those excluded from public life).
