That’s only one of many harms it does to the human experience. Look at a company like Facebook. Do you think socializing that industry and sharing the profits with the users would mitigate the harms it does to our lives? I sure don’t.
It in fact would, because there would be no incentive to keep it like it is - it would never have been made so bad if it was a democratic decision.
Facebook and Co. is bad today because there’s a conflict of interest between users and shareholders, and Zuckerberg chose the shareholders cause they line his pockets. This conflict would not exist if it was democratic.
