We had a great time on a panel this weekend organized by Resource Generation on Transformative Investing. We got to share the mic w/Working World, Seed Commons & New Economy Project and we very much enjoyed raising the profile of co-ops - especially #workercooperatives - with the rest of the group.

There's nothing like working w/worker co-ops who get how meaningful it is to work on education, conversions and legislation together. Then they send you cool stuff to remember successes.
Thanks @flatironcoop.bsky.social and all our members for all you do.

#Capitalism is out of control. Build #WorkerCooperatives. Full time workers are, in some cases, relegated to living in their vehicles. It's not just in the US. It's also in Australia and the UK. 1min video #FightFascists #SupportEducation #TeachRespect #TeachLove

Employer-employee contracts have a moral inconsistency that can only be resolved by structuring all firms as worker cooperatives.

#Cooperatives #Labor #WorkerCoops #WorkerCooperatives #philosophy #ethics #capitalism #anticapitalism #leftism
An employer and employee cooperate to commit a crime. Both are held legally responsible despite the employee having sold their labor. An employer and employee cooperate to produce outputs using up inputs. The employer gets 100% of the legal responsibility in the form of property rights and liabilities.
