587. Should Companies Be Owned by Their Workers? | Freakonomics Radio

The employee ownership movement is growing, and one of its biggest champions is also a private equity heavyweight. Is this meaningful change, or just window dressing?
ABOUT FREAKONOMICS RADIO:
Discover the hidden side of everything with host Stephen J. Dubner, co-author of the Freakonomics books. Each week, Dubner speaks with Nobel laureates and provocateurs, intellectuals and entrepreneurs, and various other underachievers to uncover things you always thought you knew (but didn’t) and things you never thought you wanted to know (but do) - from the economics of sleep to the future of education, from markets for marriage to the surprising utility of wolves.

    Wow, best episode. Should be an independent government inquiry from the sounds of it. I know first hand about the stresses over ownership from my parents who had their own business. It takes more than just showing up for work on time to make a business work.
