That's like saying that democracy is useless because politicians and public officers write and enforce the rules.

Yeah, authority structures have to exist, but the authorities make different decisions when they're appointed from above vs elected from below.

Democratic ownership and operation of the state has been the global norm for almost a century. It's not that radical to apply the same principle to business. What is business but government in microcosm? Why should we be content to spend 40 hours a week larping feudalism?
