One thing I never understood is if the workers own the means of production (means which they neither created, built up, invested in, or researched) and enjoy in the profits if the business is successful, do they have to take money out of their own pockets if the business is failing?
A successful business takes years to develop, a ton of time, money, talent, and good choices. Why should workers who invested nothing get the benefits of others success.
And who decides if that business should invest in new things if every worker has an equal share or what if I leave the job for another, does my replacement get my share and I'll get the share of the new job?
Maybe I'm starting from a faulty premise, I'm not trying to mislead, but it seems like socialism is only desirable for people to lazy or to unwilling to go out there and achieve their own success.
