Organizing a sort of > cultural revolution so to speak. students of workers' control/ownership _in practice_ know that there's a structural reason within a system of workers' control (i.e., competition) which encourages workers' culture to be economistic. That's why both the late Yugoslavia and Mondragon tried to put worker co-ops into a context of a social networks. Peter Hollings writes: >Maybe, because the workers live near where they work, they would have a greater incentive to reduce local externalities such as pollution than would some distant shareholder.< that makes sense, but not for the case of a distant kind of pollution, like the kind that promotes global warming.
