I'd say the ideals of a worker cooperative is that the workers _are_ the organization. The organization is a means to an end for all workers benefit. Not the other way around as is usually the case in a totalitarian capitalistic one.
And yes you're right, Capitalism gives you as much control giving as any totalitarian system, quitting/exile.
As the goal of worker cooperatives is usually not to become multi-nationals I'm not sure how low your bar is for when ones vote become absolutely futile.
- yummyfajitas 11y agoWhen P(vote affects outcome) x (Value of outcome A - value of outcome B) < emotional_benefit_of_doing_whatever_you_want. You observe this effect in national politics all the time - for instance, the emotional benefit of voting for a cool guy like Trump drastically exceeds P(vote effects outcome) x (Delta in outcomes). Last time I checked, I had to approximate P(vote effects outcome) by hand because it was too small to represent with double precision floating point numbers.
