what do people think about worker owned cooperatives? in times of declining union membership and even a deep, if unreasonable, resentment and distrust of unions, some other form of worker organization seems necessary, imo. i think worker owned businesses might be able to fill that gap, particularly if some kind of mechanism for helping them get started could be created

dethkon posted:It's my understanding that communism isn't against personal property at all, it's only against private property (land and factories and poo poo). I'm not an expert on it though. personal property is property owned by an individual and is okay. private property is personal property that is being used to extract value from others' labor and is bad. ex: own a sewing machine that you use? fine! own a sewing machine and pay somebody $5 to produce $20 worth of goods? bad!
