[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 3518514, member: 56035"] thats because you've been hanging out with the wrong crowd ;) theres actually alot of people in favor of worker self determination. im sure martin luther king was in favor of it. bernie sanders. the fact that people are so unfamiliar with coops is a sign of major economic illiteracy. low unionization rates is another sign. yea i dont know how to explain that completely: alot of people wanting to be told what to do all day at their jobs. OR people not liking their jobs but liking capitalism. people dont like their jobs because capitalism doesnt work, but they dont have the perspective or maturity to make that connection first time i heard it was in 2009 michael moores capitalism movie. the matrix was a critique of capitalism as well, but without spelling it out. its like everyone used to think the planets revolved around the earth, and everyone was wrong. marx says those who control the means of production also control the means of mental production. thats also how you get consumerism. this system keeps us in a state of perpetual fear, because when you make people afraid then you can control them. thats what border patrol does and cops to get intelligence. people are afraid of economics, but less so than in the past.
