We need rules and arbitors that solve issues or discrepencies in opinon or organizational conflict. But that is once more not an issue of heirarchy but of collective rules and guidelines.

“Non-hierarchical environments are just fine when everyone's pursuing their own goals,dreams, desires, et” and workers when in a company are pursuing their own goals and desires, does man suddenly become an automata when he enters into an organization?

This becomes a discussion not of the actual existing capacity of workers to make organizational decisions but of specialization, which is so diverse in ways and means that speaking on it is practically worthless.

Oh and credit unions have “bosses” that are responsible to the members of the credit union, they are elected. They might be given the authority to make decisions but their authority can be revoked at will, which means the shape of power is not heirarchical.

Then worker cooperatives under your definitions and assumptions would never work. Yet they do. Yes they can designate leadership via elections, but thats workers (or stakeholders) making a decision of organizational importance that flattens a heirarchy.

If you accept any premise presented by these fascists you move the overton an inch backwards, deny all premises presented by these cowardly fucks. Due process is non-negotiable. Checks and balances are non-negotiable. Right from government abuse is non-negotiable.

Nobody cares about this. Your focus group where you put everyone in a neat little package because thats the only way you can understand politics itself yet when it came down to it they voted for extreme right wing politics over moderatism. Because its always kind og been bullshit.

Yet corporate doesn’t want to do this because of xyz reason. Now tell me for long term health of the company is it really a good idea to increase turnover, over such a simple policy change.

For instance, I know someone who works as a hairdresser, she and dozens upon dozens of hairdressers for this corporation are begging them to allow deposits for appointments because there is no consequence for not showing up to appointments.

Never said that. I said that middle mangement and workers themselves are capable of doing such tasks, sometimes with more intimacy.

For best example of this credit unions, where stakeholdership was among all members never overleveraged their positions in the GFC unlike private equity and hedge funds. This is also true of worker cooperatives that err far more on the cautious side, but generally are more prone to long term stabili

What you are after is stakeholdership, not heirarchy, the origin of heirarchy is not based on meritocracy or long term thinking, its based on power and domination.

This is not based on anything other than an ideological position, in fact narrow “parochial” interests come from shareholder views, how often do we see shareholders not giving a damn about the long term interest of a company.
