Allowing a billionaire, a Saudi Prince, and Vanguard to decide what happens to a company while the actual tech workers have essentially no say even with all of their combined stock shows how convicted and fucked up our current system is. #tech #capitalism #socialism
If workers own a company who will work? Won't everyone be an owner?
There are companies that are employee owned. This is not a new concept
@Amazon I would think that the best place to work is where every single person has a stake in the company. Why do you think nobody would work if their comp directly depends on the success of the company?
The same users who post (correctly) that neither party owes each other any loyalty and actively encourages people to jump ship frequently in order to do what’s in their own best interest insist on having a say because blah blah … blah socialism blah
And notice how op definitely didn’t post TC after the socialism hashtag
Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times. <- We are here.
There is literally zero truth to this statement, strong men create dictatorships and destroy peoples rights.
lol spoken like a true bootlicker! Keep licking and I’m sure one day the rich will accept you as one of their own!
So instead they should all have a vote for the direction of the company? And who would decide those options? That sounds great! Until you only hire people who agree with you.
TC ? || GTFO
How would a company like that raise money?
That’s the problem with you kids, you think you can just have incite growth and the planet won’t die.
...aaand whats wrong with him buying twtr? ...and why should regular hired person decide what should company do? You dont let your apartment cleaner decide when and how to renovate building. Or cashier on with which brands store should campaign this post completely lacks any logic
Found the woke idiot
I don’t know if I would go that far. Employee controlled companies do exist but at much smaller scale. It’s not entirely crazy. But I agree that at such a large scale like Twitter or any other S&P500 company it would not be reasonable.
What does that even mean to control the company? You already have voting powers right? In any case, which worker? The janitor? The pm? I'm sure there's a line and none of these people think these things through.
The only time workers really own a company is in a cooperative/co-op. This is how companies work, private or public. Fault of Twitter is not creating a different class of shares for board.
The problem is people who don’t do the work owning the company. The other problem is the idea that companies need constant growth. Capitalism has destroyed our world and I hope it dies.
I agree with you on constant economic & profit growth. It's unsustainable & reaching a plateau is ok. The problem here is there will always be someone willing to pay to avoid any kind of work and someone willing to accept that pay.
? Workers don't own a majority of this company. Why is this a surprise?
