Congratulations, you have no idea what worker-owned+governed businesses are.
- waihtis 3y agoAh, the preferred company structure of all economic juggernauts, such as Venezuela.
- Dah00n 3y agoThe structure bombed into dust 99% of the times it was tried.
- derelicta 3y agoIf the American oligarchy wasn't so keen on destabilising its counterparts with sanctions and military coups I'm pretty sure Venezuela and many others in the middle east would be in a much better shape. But then again that would require the amercain people to wake up, ask itself the right questions and act on it :)
- avgcorrection 3y agoSo first you sarcastically deride worker-governed companies as being a reinvention of entreneurship (capitalist). Then you deride it as being like “Venezuela” (socialist bogeyman). I can’t make heads or tails of this.
- waihtis 3y agoNo, I'm choosing not to embrace some random subcategory of entrepreneurism you're trying hamfistedly promote. I have no problem with a group of people coming together to form a company, on the contrary it needs to be promoted and celebrated much more as an idea, but only if it lives and dies by market forces.
- avgcorrection 3y agoYou’re the one who picked the goddamn comparison. Then I said that the comparison isn’t valid since it’s worker-governed and owned. And now you complain that I’m choosing a particular subcategory against your will... for the thing that I said wasn’t a valid comparison to begin with!
- waihtis 3y agoI can't help but to think you don't understand even the very basic premises of forming a private company.
- defrost 3y agoPrivate companies aren't personal fiefdoms when they employ members of the general public in countries that support collective bargaining.
- waihtis 3y agoIf you're a major or founding shareholder in a company while simultaneously working there, you don't negotiate via collective bargaining mechanisms. You theoretically could, but it would be pure idiocy.
- avgcorrection 3y agoDeflection and sarcasm is all you have to offer.
