@60minutes: When the business sold, the employee-owners received big payouts. Brad and Crystal Edwards said the money was life changing #payout #employeeownership #60Minutes #jonwertheim
I’ve worked for an employee owned company for 33 years. This company is over 100 years old and became 100% employee owned in 1995.

this is what socialism really means, when the workers own the means of production. labor should be the only way to own the business.

There’s a word for describing “employee owned business“, it starts with an C. Americans have been told to hate this system from birth. Can you guess what it is? 🤔
