[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 4626737, member: 56035"] worker run coops is socialism. guys i listen to distinguish it from capitalism and say its socialism. arent corporations capitalism? but we can agree to disagree. i agree i use different definitions but if everyone is wrong im not going to join in, its up to them to educate themselves. their definitions are wrong for a reason; they want you to have a there is no alternative mentality. it maintains the status quo and keeps the money flowing to the top. their definition of socialism originates from the 2 major propaganda systems in the world: the west and the east. neither was accurate and both used it for their own nefarious means. they destroyed worker controlled economy pretty quickly in the russian revolution, it devolved into state capitalism i believe is the term one of them used. i think coops are one solution to any economy which centralizes power the way capitalism and corporations typically do.
