Co-ops are better than government run anyways, since the members are the owners, invested members can make the right choices for the store/community/region instead of a blanket provincial/federal policies.

Go to your local co-op.

If you don't have one, make one.

    I dunno, I live in a place run by a co-op and it's really just a group of tyrannical old people with nothing to do, who want to control everyone's life and are every bit as greedy as corporations.

    If it's run by a group of tyrannical old people that can't be usurped, it's not really a co-op.

    They can be usurped. Just nobody wants to run it, young residents don't want to be involved or don't have time, so you end up with the old busy bodies with nothing to do running it. They run unopposed a lot
