I’ve never heard of this model before. Where did you read about this? It’s cool and interesting and I’d like to read more about it.
Has this been implemented anywhere before?
Richard D. Wolff is a professional economist who covers this more extensively than I could do justice. "Democracy at Work: A Cure for Capitalism" takes a deep dive into these ideas. But he's also got a ton of podcast media to listen to, if you want something more bit-sized and drive-time friendly.
Oh awesome I love Dr Wolff. I didn’t know he had a podcast. I’ll check that out, and I’ll probably pick up that book too.
"The People's Republic of Walmart" is another good one. Basically laying out how enormous corporate conglomerates have proven the functional efficiency of command economies.
