"Government sugar daddy". That sort of slanted injection won't win many people over that don't already agree.
I'm advocating for government loans to start co-ops. Less of a "sugar daddy" than the massive corporate subsidies going on today. You missed the point on a co-op being worker owned, you have to work there to own a share, and have to own a share to acquire a vote. Ownership and direct democracy in one. Solves a lot of problems economically and socially.
- C1sc0cat 7y agoI have worked for and been a member of a well know tech coop in the uk btw. The previous commentator said the government would be involved in setting thease coops up - now may this is not going to be used by the executive for political ends. I was refereeing the attempt by Tony Benn in the 70's to restructure a uk motorbike manufacturer as a coop.
- BuckRogers 7y agoI was the previous commentator. I said loans from the start in my first comment. "I'd advocate for public funding of loans for worker owned co-ops. "
