That change would be socialism, where the ~~workers~~ workers' self-appointed representatives own the means of production, rather than it being owned privately by the shareholders.

We've been down this road. We know where it ends.

If you would stop bending my words for a moment, you would realize that I'm advocating for direct ownership by the workers, not some phony representative democracy. Any system with hierarchies of decision-making power, even supposedly self-appointed ones, will always corrupt.

And how would the workers exercise that "direct" ownership? Workers aren't a hive mind. There will always be hierarchies.
