[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 1825450, member: 56035"] called worker cooperatives its where workers actually control (and own) the jobs they work in by making decisions including voting in/out managers. it already exists, and it has been pushed by many people on the left, and i think even ron paul signed some worker cooperative legislation. voting at the job would be the democratic thing to do. right now under capitalism, you can take a number of issues and have a majority of workers who dont approve: -ceo pay -worker pay -# of hours / week worked -working condtions including safety -voting out certain managers etc no i fall under the category of fired. they were scheduling us to work, and then sending us home with no pay which is legal but im not gonna waste my time for 13.5 / hr either way with that :censored:. i wasnt gonna stick around anyways, too much BS for >15/hr. the whole "work a 9-7 until you retire" and hope the company doesnt rip you off on your pension which all kinds of capitalist and governments do, and pay the rent or a mortgage in a housing bubble is not for me. my plan is to do some camp jobs, fly in fly out, 2 weeks on/off and travel when im not at work.
