On paper yes. We all know what the reality was.

We aren’t talking about “on paper,” are we? We’re talking about proper implementation.

So what is the proper implementation? How do you make this worker owned be more than on paper platitude?
Capitalism does this by paying obscene amounts of money to the decision makers for making good decisions. It sucks. It sucks a lot less than anything else ever implemented.

Laws.
Enforce the laws.
How do you know this? Do you know everything else ever implemented in all of human history?
Or do you mean it sucks a lot less than what was implemented, badly, in the 20th century?
Because I think you mean the latter.
