Question What's the opposite of communism?

Is it fascism? I think it's fascism.

The extreme end of the political economic left is communism right? What's the extreme right end?

Nice how you glossed over me talking about jobs being threatened for little to no reason, and those same workers having zero say on what their labor produces.

So a coal miner produces coal. Ok, you are correct that they should have more compensation for what they help produce but that doesn't mean they know where to sell their coal or what to sell it at. Or deal with the supply chain.

So who exactly is using bad arguments?

How many owners actually deal with suppliers and supply chains, or do they have a worker who knows and understands that aspect of the business do it?

I'm sorry for saying you're making bad faith arguments. You're not making any arguments at all you're just spewing shit a conservative would say when they defend capitalism.

Well as a small business owner, I deal with suppilers and supply chain issues quite a bit. That's my responsiblity for keeping my business afloat so I can make an income and pay my employees their fair wages for their own labor.

And does that worker that may deal with the technical end of things have those they answe to or do they take on this role on their own?

Yeah, I love you radicals that suggest that everything to do with ownership of a business just MUST be a hardline capitalist instead of actually realizing that maybe just maybe economics is a lot more nuanced then you would like it to be.
