“I’ve been approaching retirement for a long time,” Adams said with a chuckle. “I couldn’t imagine being 80 and carrying on at the same level, but how else do you do it? Sell it to somebody? Close the doors?”
Sure, they could sell their glassblowing lathes, torches and ovens, but liquidating the business wouldn’t bring the value they feel the business is worth, Adams said. And the thought of trying to find a local buyer who could afford the specialized business and also know enough to not run it into the ground was as dispiriting as thinking about retirement. They were concerned about their employees losing their jobs, too.
Then they found a golden solution: They could sell the business to their employees by turning it into a worker cooperative.They’re in the process of doing that with the help of Project Equity, an Oakland nonprofit that guides companies in the transition to becoming employee-owned cooperatives.
Cooperative socialism is a good candidate as alternative to capitalism.
Co-operative isn’t socialism. They are still for-profit. They are in no way part of the government.
Free market: Connects willing buyers and willing sellers in mutually beneficial transactions.
“We invite the children of same-sex couples to listen,” said the radio announcer. “We invite the children of different-sex couples to listen. We do NOT invite the Children of the Corn to listen.”
“Not that there’s anything wrong with that,” a different voice cut in. “Some of our best friends are…” *realized what he was saying was ridiculous* “… corn.”
If a man hears, “I won’t have sex with you,” when you say, “I am saving sex for marriage,” then he has just told you all you need to know about his plans for the relationship.
If a man hears, “But I’ll do other things,” when you say “I am saving sex for marriage,” then RUN AWAY and do NOT look back.
Nicki has got to stop stirring the pot with Cardi because she just comes out looking bad and desperate. Love her or hate her, Cardi is considerably more relevant to rap at the moment than Nicki; I know it must sting to have some nobody ex-stripper come out of nowhere and get a number one hit when you couldn’t do that in several years of career building but sometimes thems the breaks 🤷🏽♀️ Also you keep associating with an alleged child abuser which really isn’t doing your image any favors.
Accusation is not reality and means very little without proof. Aside from that, Nicki is about turning a dollar and rarely attempts to actually rap so much as just release catchy, dumb shit- so long as she can continue to do that by fighting with her equally boring frenemy, she will be fine.
He literally appears in a pornographic video with a 13-year-old but OK.
And I didn’t say she wouldn’t be fine career speaking. She’s definitely not completely irrelevant, but she’s gotten nowhere near the chart success.
Wait.. I thought you were referring to Drake. Is she really working with that idiot sixnine?
Yes. She continues to work with him for reasons that baffle us all.
