[Peace-discuss] [Peace] My plea, related to the Yellow Vest movement in France

[John W.]

I suppose I should add here (not that my opinion matters one iota in the
grand scheme of things):  I'm not sure that nationalization of corporations
is necessarily the best idea.  What about worker-owned and -operated
corporations?  I'd like to see workers have more of a direct say in their
own wages and working conditions, and in what the corporation does and how
its profits are shared.
