Why progressives should advocate for universal worker democracy (i.e. worker coops) and oppose employer-employee contracts - "Inalienable Rights: Part I The Basic Argument"

https://www.ellerman.org/inalienable-rights-part-i-the-basic-argument/

One of the original progressive ideas was that of an inalienable right, which is a right that people cannot give up even with consent. This idea is often misinterpreted in modern political thought. This article explains inalienable rights and how it implies a worker coop mandate
