What if wages for everyone in a company are regularly voted on by the rest of the company? For example, if the manager isn’t doing their job, their wages are lowered by vote. If the manager tries to lower the wages of the workers to a horribly low level, it could either a) be overruled by the majority, or b) the manager’s wages are lowered suit, pressuring them to increase it.

This is probably a really stupid idea that is extremely prone to corruption, but why?

edit: yep this really is a stupid idea

      Indeed. It’s frankly surprising that they’re pursuing antitrust cases against Google and Meta now, cause since the break-up of AT&T we’ve spent a lot of years not giving a shit about how anti-competitive giant corporations are.
