No I wasn’t suggested it be forced or companies be nationalized.

I was saying governments could provide incentives and support for workers to form worker owned companies. At the moment western governments heavily favor formation of capitalist companies.

    My mistake then. So in your proposed system private companies would continue to exist.

    If that's the case, I'll go back to my first statement then. Tech workers will likely choose the higher risk but higher reward private company rather than one that my only have a modest return. If the private companies exist along side the co-ops, the boom and bust cycles will still exist except the co-ops won't be the beneficiary, but will certainly be on the losing side of cycles.
