When the whole western society has been force fed that “we must consume else our economy will collapse”, not continously outselling (and throwing away barely year old work) is bad, this is the result.

This exploitative just creates burned out engineers. It’s a reason total productivity has seen increasing with reduced work weeks. Well rested and happy people are vastly more efficient.

The ownership of any large company should imo always be gradually moved over to the people who work there.

Worker coops are not a silver bullet and will always be corruptible in any way any other democracy can, but at least it has the possibility to be proper, in contrast to strict founder / investor ownership where you are at their mercy.
