As the author of "A Real Ownership Society",
I advocate for socializing the behavior of our corporations, and democratizing their benefits. By discarding the conventional model of corporate ownership that now relies upon absentee ownership, and replacing it with one based on worker ownership, we can accomplish these ends.

(1 comments) Liberals are finally gaining their voice on the problem of corporate capitalism. But they are stuck in the past when it comes to reform ideas. Instead of containing the inherently bad behavior of our corporations, we should seek to rehabilitate our corporations. Doing so begins with worker ownership, an idea that's ready for prime time.
