“Those who own property in a city—houses and businesses, say—probably come the closest to qualifying as its shareholders, but they do not own undivided interests in the city as a whole.  Perhaps then we should not be surprised that, like unowned property everywhere, many cities suffer looting, abuse, and neglect.  How can we improve this state of affairs? Here, as elsewhere, the public sector can learn from the private sector about how to tap the power of shared equity. Two lessons, in particular, bear our attention:  Workplaces resemble cities and worker-owned businesses thrive.”
