      Chapter 10: Agreeable work.
In this chapter women's problems are finally addressed after only talk about men. I liked that even in a book written in 18 century is recognized that women are slaved by society and any revolution needs to put this in consideration. Any revolution needs to think in free women from this burden.

      Chapter 9: The need of luxury.
With all basic needs covered then we address the artistic need of luxury. Basically having a hobby which would be possible because people would have time. Music, astronomy, etc.

      Chapter 8: Ways and means.
The point of the chapter is to prove that people only need to work like 5 hours a day and only half of the year and it kinda proved it.

      Chapter 7: Clothes.
Of course people need to take control of the fabrics and warehouse and like with the houses people need to distribute clothes freely whoever needs it.
The common complain is in this way everybody will use the same and the artistic part of clothing would die. The book states this is not true and it'll prove it. We'll see.

      Chapter 6: Dwelling.
On the day the expropiation of the houses takes place, on that day wokers will realize new times have come. Of course this exprorpiation have to be done by popular movements instead by a goverment because at first place the middle class would never do something like that because they doesn't even consider this kind of problems a "problem".

      Chapter 5: food.
The revolution is gonna take time. Months or even years and one problem that is obvious but revolutions have failed to address is the food. People will run out of food and without food the revolution die.
Solution: people in the fields keep working the land to feed big cities and big cities keeps providing the products of its industry to the villages like clothes, machinery, etc, like equals.

      So for I kind of hate this book. The preface sums up all the problems with socialism and then the book jumps into explaining why we strive for a system that only ever fails. The author lacks appreciation for the function of middlemen or good leadership. Thinks all wealth is created through theft.

      Chapter 4: Expropriation.
The point of expropriate is giving back to the workers the fruits of their work. If the few doesn't own the land, the fabrics, etc, then they won't have the capability to exploit the poor.
There's a trick and you need to expropriate all (houses, land, fabrics) because if you don't then the sectors that remain private will only oppress the people even more to compensate it.

      Chapter 3: anarchist communism.
First we need to get rid of the private property and after that the idea of the need of a government as a elected group of people who made laws. Maybr societies like a group of workers of rail roads or another group of people for fishing, etc.
Now ¿Who regulates those groups? Of course if you expropriate the means of productions the chances to corrupt these groups are smaller but...
