Worker owned and operated collectives actually work even in this toxic environment.
A recent post by H20 Man encouraged me to do a search on Wikipedia to see what happened to two such activist enterprises I had been a part of. Glad to see both are alive and well and still doing good work.

Both had no active link on the Wiki page on co-ops, so I fixed that. Glad I can still do a bit more to contribute.

Here's the Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_worker_cooperatives

It's a very incomplete page. There are far more than are listed, but in my view, anything short of that kind of world is just another form of exploitation. The best overview of how that works and what it means is the one often mentioned by Thom Hartmann: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mondrag%C3%B3n_Cooperative_Corporation
