A company where every single employee has control/voting rights. That would be a complete disaster.

Oh no, not co-ops! They give the people, who actually create the products and know how they work, voting rights on the companies direction? So dumb. Everyone knows its best to have a business person, whose sole focus is the stock market and shareholders, controlling the direction of every company.

/s in case it wasn't glaringly obvious.
