Which is an example of socialism where workers actually control anything?

While my example may not be entirely text book accurate, I only hear of socialists speaking as you say (advocating fairness as a principle.)

Impressions of working socialism are of a committee deciding who gets what (and what is in everyone’s best interests).

The example might very well be an authoritarian form of socialism, though not really trying to mince words, only to reveal that sometimes working systems we are familiar with actually work outside of the conventions we expect.

There are quite a few socialists who I respect (altruistic intellectuals), though few (0) working examples.

The many worker co-operatives existing in the world today are working examples of socialism.

Good for instance!

Co-ops are a great thing!
