- steveklabnik 16y agoI'm not sure if you're trying to be sarcastic... In the real world, we get fictional companies? I'll be first to say that modern unions are horrible, and there's lots of problems there. But there are also a lot of successful, democratically run business places.
- CWuestefeld 16y agoSorry, my wording was poor. That story is a parable, and I was trying to remind you of it, as a logical consequence of running a business as a co-op. there are also a lot of successful, democratically run business places I'm not aware of any. Can you cite examples?
- steveklabnik 16y agoHere's a list on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_worker_cooperatives#United_States http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_worker_cooperatives#Uni... Obviously, this is not comprehensive.

- orborde 16y agoI know it's probably just you copy-pasting a link off Google without being too attentive, but please, please, please do not cite Conservapedia. Take a look at the site homepage to get a taste of why.
- CWuestefeld 16y agoI wasn't looking for a site that's got (or hasn't got) any particular reputation. I was looking for a good description of The Twentieth Century Motor Company. Whatever you might think of Conservapedia (I have no opinion; I'm not Conservative, and don't frequent the site), their content for this article was a better description than I found in the rest of Google's first page of results.
