What the fuck is a democratically run business?
Discussion
One where the people decide how it's run. Most companies are run like a dictatorship, where the person (or sometimes people) at the top make all the decisions. That's fine when they're benevolent, but most of the time they're only looking out for themselves. Having decision making be decentralized makes a huge difference in how the company is run.
What are some successful examples of this communist model?
Democracy is not the same as communism, my friend.
And a coop is the exact opposite of communism. Not being centrally planned is a defining feature.
Only one step away.
Private property means the capital the business controls has to be owned by someone. Either shares or fully held privately.
Decisions can only be made by the owner of the property.
How is a coop any different than a corporation where each person has one share, one vote? It's not.
Why do you hate democracy?
Because it doesn’t work
Actually let me correct myself- “democracy” DOES work.
It “works” by tricking you into believing that you have some kind of control over government. You don’t.
But the government exploits your belief and willing participation in the system to rob, abuse, extort, murder, traffic, destroy people all around the world and especially its own citizen slaves.
That’s why I “hate” democracy.
This (socialist) claim is more then 100 years old. Didn't make sense then and does not make sense now.
Property owner servers the customers. They dictate what and how the company is producing goods and services.
When they don't not serve customers, they are in lost.
Peoperty owner coordinates the process making sure customers get what they want at price they're willing to pay.
Employees very rarely see anything outside theirs day to day work and believe that it's them doing all the work. So they think they should have say. Often think that the decisions doesn't make sense or are unjust to them.
They only see trees not the wood.
You've got an entirely straw man argument here, but I'll indulge you.
Why do you think democratic rule and private property is socialist?
Like, what do you think socialism is? I can see why you would say "socialism doesn't make sense" since you seem to have a very different definition than the dictionary, or an encyclopedia, or the rest of society (both those who are for or against it)
