People should collectively own the companies they work for.
The people doing actual real work often have a much clearer picture of what's a good or bad idea. Meanwhile management, let alone owners, are looking to either
a) maximize short term profits (because they intend to be somewhere else by the time the bad decisions manifest)
or
b) create infinite growth from finite resources (but they still intend to sell when the peak is reached).
Customers, workers, management and owners have wildly different incentives. And only customers and workers have incentives that lead to long term prosperity - building value (indirectly) from natural resources and human time. Management and owners don't build anything, their incentives are redistributing the created value, ideally so as much as possible goes to them.
