orker cooperatives–a business structure in which the employees own the company, and share decision-making power over salaries, schedules, and where profits are directed.


Sounds like the “20th century motor company” in Atlas Shrugged.

Good point...but I think even at the "20th Century Motor Company," that band of employees "took over" an existing company that at one time, did very well.

It was almost like the employees were a union, and "voted" to organize the company like that.

If I remember correctly, that's where John Galt said, "enough of this, I'm out!"
