Is there literally anything stopping a group of workers from starting a company where they all own the means of production right now in America?

No, there is literally nothing stopping a bunch of people from starting a worker's coop. Lumpenprole cummie commies often cite the Mondragon coop as an example of a worker coop that can work very well, which is true. However, what they fail to mention is that the Mondragon Corporation doesn't just hire any Vaush or Shuwu off the street to fuck up their company - they only hire employees of the highest quality.Is there literally anything stopping a group of workers from starting a company where they all own the means of production right now in America?
Shoe...... shoe, shoe, shoe.
That's another reason why socialism will never work and why there's workers and owners:I've asked communists why they don't start their own corporation (i.e. land, machines, material, labor, business plan, executive plan, logistics, etc.) and they answer is always ALWAYS "we can't do that because it would be risky, the business could fail!" ... To which I say "You're off to a great start understanding why capitalism is risk and reward! Capitalism doesn't reward failure" and usually they don't reply or just "reeee muh life should be guaranteed successful reee reee." Also: I made a post about mondragon co-op corporation in Vaush's thread, sums it up <3 @Jack Awful @yoshitsune
Something communists/socialists try to erase is the fact that in capitalism, employers provide a valuable service to people in offering millions of jobs where the employee has to do none of the actual logistics, planning, or shop up-keep. If I get hired by a business, I can leave anytime I want and they can't do shit. I'm free. I can switch jobs if I get bored. I get paid to show up, I am trained and there isn't years of study involved.That's another reason why socialism will never work and why there's workers and owners:
The workers don't want to risk their own wealth by putting it into a corporation that could fail.
Noticed far leftists cheering this stuff on as pushing Shoe farther left even tho she’s already there. Really looking like a Tim Pool analogue now.
and was proven to be 100% correct after his death, because, surprise surprise, the commies turned on each other for not being communist enough.McCarthy did nothing wrong, btw.
Especially considering there are way better autistic sword/medieval channels and shows out there.Any man who is interested in being a knight in 2020 is obviously retarded or autistic.
No, this is called owning a small business. Problem is that the way they see it when you hire an employee they should be entitled to part ownership. Which, if you have a single coherent thought in your head, you immediately realize is insane.Is there literally anything stopping a group of workers from starting a company where they all own the means of production right now in America?
Also, is she unfamiliar with things like lawfirms who offer partnership agreements to people who weren't there at the start, or companies that include shares of stock as part of the compensation package?Is there literally anything stopping a group of workers from starting a company where they all own the means of production right now in America?
Its not that insane as its common practice with equity award compensation plans, which is the primary reason people want to work for small companies before they IPO. But, employers have to hand out this POTENTIAL reward only to those people who have actually earned the right to benefit from an IPO through there own loyalty, technical expertise and hard work. This does come with its own risks as the company could fail and employees get nothing. Employers also specifically hand out these equity awards usually with a contracct that restrict this ownership from any decision making abilities outside their work role.No, this is called owning a small business.

He got rid of a lot of paperwork and permits you need to open a business and that created more than twice jobs in one month than the whole year in ultra leftist Argentina.
I wonder exactly how many people defending shoe are Commies and how many are just simps.

I think most of them are leftists. People who she used to shit on, who are now happy to turn her against people.

This is true because Monopolies are not built off of control of a resource, but the regulation around it. The great monopolies of the 1800's/early 1900's were literally owned by the government or deep in bed with the government putting so much red tape on whatever primary resources they needed to be the only ones able to pay/pass the red tape.They aren't entirely incorrect because there are way more factors for a business to fail beyond offering a quality product and the risk is too big for a person or a family to take.
The funny thing is that, at least for me, I'd have to spend more money with permits and regulations than the actual products. If they get rid of most of the burocracy behind opening a business, even keeping the basic shit I'd have to pay, I'd be investing the minimal.
That's a good thing Bolsonaro did, btw. He got rid of a lot of paperwork and permits you need to open a business and that created more than twice jobs in one month than the whole year in ultra leftist Argentina.
