[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 3081932, member: 56035"] so your saying the current corporate model has a perfect balance of workers interests vs employers interests? cmon now. its obvious people dont like their jobs because they have little to no say over the work environment. ive done wayyy too many jobs, including UPS which could have been at least good or better, if we werent being ruled all day. inequality is also one of the big results of capitalism and its obvious who this system benefits: not us. look at america. its a disaster. the political system doesnt work anymore because its totally corrupted by money. the economy stinks. i cant believe you think its good. its only relatively better than it was in 2009. the environment is a disaster. scientists are saying were in the midst of the 6th mass extinction. look at humans: we are narcissists, consumers, cynics, spiritually weak, conformists, and ignorant. all of this has something to do with capitalism. theres way too much power centralized towards the corporation, not enough to the workers or community. well thats the thing with democracy: theres more deliberation. its more efficient to have one person tell everyone what to do, but its undemocratic if you didnt elect them. sometimes we like having 1 person represent our best interests. but the thing is even in the present corporate model, they dont represent our best interests, they represent the company's best interests. and in the case of CEOs, quite often they are looting the companies they are supposed to be representing. your right i could post more articles on worker coops instead of my own philosophy, but whatever. if i do, i do. YOU should be posting stuff here too. [/QUOTE]
