Go join a coop 🥶. They work for workers and community
I'm saying that should be the norm.
I'm calling for systemic change. Individual people making choices to have democratic processes in their businesses is not enough.
You're like a serf going "Go move to a republic 🥶."
Wait, what? A serf cannot move without the king's permission. You, I, and everyone can make it a preference to join a co-op or union work place with every job move.
Are there many co-op positions available in my area and field? No. Unions? No.
Do I have a preference for them? Yes.
Maybe I will have to start one.
One step at a time is better than no steps.
I think the issue would be that currently it is not feasible for workers to start co-ops. Subsidies for worker co-ops would be a good option
That is a good suggestion.
