No, not at all. In general I believe in self-management, and so am in favour of expanding democratic processes to the economic sphere.
There are multiple levels of complexity at which democratic involvement is useful, states are the obvious solution to high-level problems (national infrastructure, natural monopolies, law, money, etc), and other issues should be decentralised somewhat, all the way down to your work/family/self. To what degree depends on the problem.
Joking aside, I think there is always a tension when you're asking the state to do things.
100%. I think it's a really useful tension though!

So you are pro centralised paternalism?
