    the workers can be shareholders though. some companies even pay a bit in stock or options. however, dividends are usually very low and most shareholders make their money with gambling the stock market, which has little to do with labor at all.

      Sure but giving employees a tiny fraction of the company is not democracy. All workers must collectively own the company. And nobody who doesn’t work there should get a say.

      Also the whole thing I just said, it’s not about wealth it’s fundamentally about power.
