“What about collective ownership of a company by those who are stock holders?”
If a golf course were run like a corporation that charged for it’s product/service, had to make a profit, had shareholders who could easily buy and sell shares on an exchange which established price discovery at any point of the trading day and which transferred profits to the shareholders in the form of dividends, with audit requirements and severe penalties for fraud......then maybe collective ownership of a golf course would not closely resemble socialism with it’s well-established track record of lack of success.
So then, not all collective ownership is “another take on socialism”, and a successful corporately run golf course would not be “just another take on socialism” even though collectively owned?
