I can’t imagine what entrepreneur would accept random partners just because they employ someone? Look for a huge increase in part-time Temps and nepotism if that starts down the rails.

If the First-Come-First-Serve Tories don’t come off the dime, democracy will simply make America socialist.

The entire discussion is too nuanced for most people these days.

In fact it gets as polarized and as Government Bad! / Government Good!

We could do a lot better.
So much of this.

Why random? The employer literally gets to select them.

For the record, I only got to around 6:00 in, when they started with false equivalencies and red herrings.

Is anyone here besides me an employer? I wouldn't "select" anyone if that turned them into a partner.

"Partner" implies control and ownership, which is not what was proposed.

It is possible to set aside some percentage of revenue for employees, and then work out a scheme to divide that up. Employers still hire, fire, and manage employees as they do now.
