I suspect you are not familiar with farmer cooperatives. They are not employee cooperatives. They are corporatives of private farmers.

If that were true, why isn't every company adopting 4 day work weeks?

I have bad news for you. Those workers who demand 40% wage increases and 32 hour work weeks will be "easily replaced" by auto factories in the South who have right to work laws.

It is indeed quite telling that our less-capitalist forefathers in the UK do not produce streaming services like Netflix and Amazon.

Fortunately, capitalism ensures you will have other choices besides Amazon.

The article doesn't mention the grades and test scores of legacy students are as strong as non-legacy admitted students.
"Among the admitted legacies, grades and test scores were indistinguishable from non-legacy students. Both groups had an average SAT score that surpassed 1430. Once on campus, legacy students tended to have slightly higher college grades, but their involvement in campus activities, merit awards, academic recognition and on-time graduation rates were indistinguishable from non-legacy students. In sum, legacy students, on average, were about as academically strong as non-legacy students, neither superior nor inferior."

That says 4 companies control 65% of the retail market. That is not a monopoly and there are many other grocers that consumers can shop at, like Amazon, Whole Foods, Safeway. Trader Joe's or the many other regional specialty ones.

This is such an awful argument. Because a company captures 50% of sales in an area does not mean that it has a monopoly and that there is only 1 grocer in the area. Your source is also not very reliable. List one area where Walmart has a monopoly and the only grocer in town.

Bill Clinton was a fan of deregulation and would be considered an "extreme far right" politician in today's "centrist" Democratic Party.

Defunding the police and de facto allowing the burglary of any items below $900 are "centrist" views in other parts of the world?
