    Labour is entitled to all it creates. The surplus value Brace generates is $1.2m and it's split between the workers. If he's wildly successful from that, good. He directly generates that much value and should get his fair share of it. His obligation to society is paying taxes. I want worker co-ops to be successful and uplift everyone in the production chain while limiting their ability to turn that reward into structural power. Treats just stimulate other parts of the economy while investment/inheritance are both parasitic unless highly regulated.

      He makes that much money from doing a podcast which is one of the least exploitative ways of making money. It's not like he's running a business with employees below him unless you count the restaurants he owns as The Gourmand, or his ranches as The Dark Cowboy.
