Read the passage and choose the best answers. The fist systemic change would affect productive workers – those who actually make the goods and sevices that corporations then sell to get” their” profits. Such workert would become their own collective board of directors. Corporations would then no longer have tiny boards of directors (elected by and accountable to shareholders) that extract profits , control workers, and dominate politics and culture.By making productive workers anddirectors the same group of people ,wages and working conditions would suddenly become as important as profits to decision-makers. The second systemic change would subject these new workers or directors to a social system of checks and balances governing their ecomic decisions. They would have to share the power to decide how much work will be done, how much profit will be made,and how the profits will be distributed and used across the society . the worker or directors would share such decision-making with several groups,othE “stakeholders” who likewise depend on the results of such decisions. These other groups include,firstly, all those workers who do not directly produce goods and services , but rather provide the conditions for enabling production To occur. Such enablers include, for example ,the clerks ,sales,and purchasing personnel , wholesale and retail merchats,secretaries,bank workers, and so on. Other enablers are workers in government and social welfare enterprises (public schools, hospitals,military etc.). Beside such workers,cocal, state, and national communities would also join in democratically co-determining job conditions ,the sizes of profits ,and their disposition. Finally, just as community members would share decision-making power inside enterprises with the workert, the latter would share decision-making powers over communnity affairs. Such a worker- community system of checks and balances would democratize society`s basic economic – for the first time in history – as well as link them intimately with similarly organized social decisions. 31.
