You believe in a society where wealth and resources are distributed fairly, allowing individuals to have equal influence over economic decisions and policies.
Economic Democracy is a socio-economic philosophy that proposes to shift decision-making power from corporate managers and corporate shareholders to a larger group of public stakeholders that includes workers, customers, suppliers, neighbors, and the broader public. This ideology is rooted in the belief that markets and economies should be run democratically to meet public needs, not to make profits for a few. It suggests that wealth and power should be shared broadly in a democratic manner.
The concept of Economic Democracy has its roots in various forms of socialism and cooperative…

Can you imagine a world where your voice matters just as much as a billionaire's in economic decision-making; what might that look like?
@9HFKVH86mos6MO
I believe everyone should have a voice, and be listened to. Having money does not make you wise, having knowledge does. I believe everyone has the right to state their opinion.
@9HFKKW76mos6MO
yes, it would look like everyone has a voice and is allowed to say what they say
@9HFK3J86mos6MO
a lot more good change in our economy and government importance
@9HFKBVF6mos6MO
Yes, it would look like people would care about my opinions.
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
How would the engagement in local politics evolve if all community projects had to be approved by a citizen vote?
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
How would you feel if your work had the same say in company decisions as your boss?
@9HDQHXN6mos6MO
Only some decisions should be shared between boss and employee.
@9HDQQRP6mos6MO
I feel as if I had the same say in company decisions as my boss, that it would be wrong. My boss went to school and knows more than I do, so it would generate skewed results.
@9HDQTKM6mos6MO
there will be chaos becouse the people of today are not mentally fit to make such calls
@9HDSFD36mos6MO
Employees should not have the same power over the company as their boss. However, employees should be able to contribute in some way to the company's decisions. In the end, a boss should be able to listen to their employees and tailor their decisions to fit what meets these needs while also deciding what is best for the company.

How might your approach to saving and spending change if you knew it influenced the economy on a larger scale?
@9HW5K7C5mos5MO
The government should make its spending public to the people. The people have a right to know what their money is being used for. Its because we don't have access to the spending, we find out that they are spending billions on things that don't affect us or help/ improve the taxpayer's lives or environment.
@9HW5GNH5mos5MO
i would figure out a better what to spend and save money
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Have you ever felt your community should have more control over the businesses that operate there; why or why not?
@9HFH8FTIndependent6mos6MO
I think it depends on the kind of business, if it were to be a shop or restaurant, then no. but if it were insurance or something like that they should have at least supervision over it.
@9HFGPXVRepublican6mos6MO
yes, it should be very lightly regulated if at all
@9HFDH2K6mos6MO
yes because it would tell the store owners what everyone wants
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Do you believe that those with more at stake (like greater investments or responsibilities) should have more say in economic decisions?
@9HFGC48Libertarian6mos6MO
No. Money doesn't determine how smart you are, you could be the greatest at investing but that doesn't mean you know the first thing about the law, or government and how it runs. That's coming from somebody who doesn't work in government.
@9HFGFVNRepublican6mos6MO
Yes, because they have money to pay for big changes
@9HFG6CM6mos6MO
yes and no i think everyone should have a fair say because it's all of our econimy
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Should individuals have a right to share in the wealth they help create, beyond just receiving a wage, and how might that change society?
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
In a world where anyone can contribute to city planning, what innovative project would you suggest for your city?
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
If school clubs were funded based on student consensus, how would you argue for your own club's funding needs?
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Have you ever had an idea to improve a business or club you're a part of but felt like you didn't have the power to make it happen?
@9HW5GDM5mos5MO
Yes, I believe for example fast food places should change their drive thru's like chic fil a and have people outside taking orders.
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
What societal changes do you think would come from each person having an equal vote on economic issues?
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
What would you prioritize if you could decide how profits from large corporations were used to benefit your community?
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
What if the music or streaming services you used allowed you to vote on which artists or shows get funded?
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
How would you propose we balance the power between individual freedoms in business and the need for collective decision-making?
@9HFGYDF 6mos6MO
Seems communist, but also a good idea, but still Marxist so I don’t know fam.
Collective decision making is essentially democracy. The ability to be able to mesh individualism and collectivness can only occur with freedom and planned negotiation.
