I disagree. I'm really bad at self management. If there was zero layers I would pay someone to tell me what to do. Currently my employer takes a very significant portion of the value I generate, but if there was nohierarchhy I'd still pay someone a smaller portion my generated value to manage my tasks and coordinate my efforts.

working with a manager is not automatically a hierarchy of power. the keys is non coercion and voluntairy association.

as long as you can chose to switch manager, can choose to work without manager, can access the information your manager has, can resolve conflicts with your manager as equals, and have reasonable control over the distribution of the profits, all without threat to your livelyhood, this is not a hierarchy of power.

you do not have to do everything by yourself. thats what we got each other for. as equals :3
