&gt; I believe that an employer should make a substantial margin on an employee&#x27;s labor. That provides a stable situation, covers for the employer&#x27;s risk (if an employee&#x27;s project&#x2F;work fails to create value, they still get paid), and covers the overhead.<p>A workers&#x27; cooperative can do the same job.  What justifies the privatization of the cooperative&#x27;s profits to a single individual?
