There’s no need for any privatization. We can simply have a market socialist economy that works on the principles of worker and customer owned companies.

Basically, we can have utility companies (and that type of stuff) be owned equally by the citizens they serve, have all the other companies be heavily antitrust regulated and owned equaly by the workers of said companies through the worker cooperative corporate structure.

Conflict of interest things (like healthcare) can simply be government programs.

This way, we preserve the market and the Playstation while at the same time ensuring that Sony makes more moral choices and pays all their workers fairly.

There’s no need for Uber rich people to even exist, functioning examples of worker cooperative companies exist (For example, Mondragon Group in Spain).

I belive profit itself should be eliminated, we can do just fine without it.
