I'm currently in a position where I could realistically start a "small business" with no more than 5-10 workers at most. Considering my autism score is higher than the average construction worker, I could likely take advantage of this opportunity to get rich quick, but instead I feel that it would be far more ethically rewarding to "split the pie".
I've never ran a business before, much less even held a job for more than a few months, but I finally found an industry I can stick around in for at least a few years. I put up a sign in the local neighborhood and already got a few calls, so there will eventually come a point where the job is too large for one man.
Has anyone ever ran a co-op before? Are there even any real downsides besides going to sleep at night knowing you're not a parasitic sociopath?
Keep in mind this is mostly a "side business" anyway, when work occasionally slows down at my main job.
>ethically rewarding
Irrelevant and spooky
>Are there even any real downsides besides going to sleep at night knowing you're not a parasitic sociopath?
You become a petty bourgeois

>>Are there even any real downsides besides going to sleep at night knowing you're not a parasitic sociopath?>You become a petty bourgeoisSo there's no "right" way to become petit bourgeois? Even if it's a co-op? Wouldn't that technically make all my coworkers petit bourgeois as well?

>So there's no "right" way to become petit bourgeois?Why do you care? Noone is going to shoot you just because you had a socialist worker co-op. You were asking for any other "downsides". Idk if you have an opportunity to make better money you should take just, just know that you aren't building socialism alone just with your co-op, but you seem to already know co-ops aren't revolutionary
