Well I was humoring you, as in, let's say communism has never been done in the past. And all the other attempts were simply authoritarianism. Even if you have a shot, to do it "the right way" it will lead to authoritarianism out of sheer desperation because it's impossible to make it work. It'd be like if you wanted to substitute the entire internet with a civic center of people who are going to put their minds together to write a giant catalog of human information. They won't even come close to what we lost by getting rid of the internet in favor of centralized data control. The very notion that they think they can would be pure hubris. But with the free market it's more tricky because we can't see or appreciate what's always been around us. It's like if you never experienced a tornado and suddenly you have to deal with a tornado. It's something that catches people off guard. The free market is that invisible firmament that's holding all the things and stuff together. It's a vast tapestry of data that we use everyday but don't appreciate. We're always looking for the right price, it's in our best interest too. But without those numbers, what do we do? How can we best allocate the resources or for that matter redistribute them? The free market creates a general consensus of the value of things based on billions and billions of market transactions and micro adjustments to said transactions. If you break that amazing thing, terrible things happen, and I mean terrible! Don't break all the stuff cyberdemon, it's totally not worth it! You could do a test pilot in your own household by shopping without worrying about math. Just put whatever in the cart you want and don't do any math. If you can't afford remove whatever in the checkout line until it's affordable. After a while it will catch up with you. That's the problem without knowing the value of things and stuff.
