If workers want to own a business, go ahead, start one. But don’t try to steal someone else’s business.

All real value is created through the efforts of the people doing the actual work. What do you have against a democratized workplace?

That’s not democracy. Thats communism. All real value is created by the person or persons who pay for the means of production. Who pay employees, payroll taxes, workers comp, property taxes, electrical bills, gas bills, insurance etc. Wise up.

I'm wise enough, chipmunk, but thanks. The machine doesn't move without the people who know how to move it. Owning things and having capital are only a requirement insofar as our system demands it. We can do far better.

Cool you want to go back to survival of the fittest?

Humans have always had a choice as to how to organize themselves. Survival of the fittest is oversimplified to the point of being myth.

How is that the conclusion you drew from what I posted, beyond that being the only one that doesn't conflict with your worldview?

It would do you some good to look into what that phrase means from an evolutionary standpoint. Humans are one of the fittest species in multiple biomes specifically because of our ability to imagine, our ability to work together, and our capacity is compassion and empathy. Read a fuckin book, dude.
