What do you guys think of worker owned businesses in the market today?
The ones I go to locally have the best prices
Especially food and ammo
So are they more efficient?
If you want to watch awesome documentaries by people who might think they are Anarcho-syndicalists who sometimes get Noram Chomsky to appear as a guest speaker in their documenary then I suggest
Metanoia hyphen films dot org
I would start with human resources if I only suggested one of their films
It goes over MK Ultra type experiments if I remember correctly
I think the person who made human resources film had a parent or relative who was a victim of a psychological experiment as a member of the military and so she made this documentary because of it if I remember correctly
They put one of her relatives on experimental drugs to see what would happen if I remember correctly

Collective owned business already exists and in Russia they were called Kolkhozes.
It has already been tried and we have decades of records of their performance. It's quite easy to find material on them and how they worked in the soviet union.
Here is a quick link from wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collectivization_in_the_Soviet_Union
@Zeb i know but obviously im not talking about state owned or collectivized businesses in soviet, thats why i wanna know how they're able to offer the lowest prices
@LysanderMooner
If you're talking about small local shops, they can offer better prices when they have low costs and no overhead: few/no employees, no rent and local direct supplier/production.
The secret is to keep government interference to the minimum or zero.
@Zeb they're regional corps with dozens of locations w employees
I'm just impressed they perform so well

My favorite grocery stores
are
1 Woodman's
2 Trader Joes
3 Aldis
Woodman's claims to be employee owned
It gives you a wide selection of choices and specific brands at cheap prices and is very big
Aldi and trader joe's give you cheap prices but less choices
When people support Anarcho-syndicalism then Anarcho capitalists often say it already exists and you do not need to do anything special you can just start a employee owned business
