Tragedy of the commons. When scarce resources are communally owned, they tend to get exploited even worse than when they're privately owned.
- copsarebastards 12y agoI am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a comment. Employee-owned cooperatives aren't communally owned, they're employee-owned (as the name indicates). The resources, in this case, are the employees themselves. So you're claiming that employees will exploit themselves more than an employer would?
