A particular challenge presents itself with regard to the shaping of income rights. Within the framework of a farm community one can, in this respect, detach oneself from the guardianship of a wage-tariff order — though unfortunately not where employees on wages and salaries are concerned. The ideal — that every long-term member of the working community would be a co-entrepreneur, forming together with all the others an entrepreneurial community that determines its own incomes in accordance with the level of returns — would be a worthy goal to strive for, but under existing legislation it is only very limitedly practicable. To determine incomes in advance according to the sum of the possible needs of each individual is abstract and leads necessarily to inequalities, and with them to conflicts. The same holds when one seeks the solution in "equal pay for all." Income arrangements are oriented in each case to the concrete conditions of life. Under communal management they depend essentially on family circumstances. A young family needs, at the same time, less income than one whose children are going to school and need musical instruments, or than one whose children are making their way through university. When the children have left the house, what is really needed as income can reduce again — and more still in old age. This naturally embraces all the adversities of life that the community must face from case to case.
