Sentience of Companies and their Ownership/Trade Rights
Should we allow companies to be owned, when they are sentient supra-organisms, based on subtle human-to-human relationships?
If you think of companies as a higher form of life (social supra-organisms), you may end up thinking that it's unethical to own and trade them, like it is unethical to own and trade human slaves.
So, should we outlaw company ownership -- and let shares represent something different: from the rights to revenues to the uniqueness of particular human relationships within the value systems of each organization?
What would be the ethical implications of companies being sentient social supra-organisms to the rights of their ownership?
這讓我想起了我在github上的MRSGREN想法。

This reminds me of my MRSGREN idea on github.

Then the company can truly be a lifeform. As it sees, it hears and it talks.
我懂了。有時,我們的想法如此重要,以至於它們似乎與他人的許多想法聯繫在一起,並且我們開始將彼此的想法視爲我們的想法。我想知道,創造性的異花授粉的侷限性是什麼?
I see. Sometimes, we have ideas of such significance, that they seem to connect to many ideas of others, and we start to think of each others' ideas as ours. I wonder, what's the limiting case of inventive cross-pollination?

//股份代表不同的東西:從權利,收益到特定人際關係的獨特性//
太酷了,讓我們來探討-股份代表什麼?
//shares represent something different: from the rights to revenues to the uniqueness of particular human relationships //
Cool, so let's explore - what would shares represent?

一旦公司成立,它就不再需要所有者了。您可以說所有者從公司拿走投資,而這些投資可能會在規模和規模上增長,而所有者卻不會從公司中獲利。
我以超市物流網絡爲例。一旦所有人員都安排妥當,並且人們知道他們在做什麼和正在做什麼,該組織就會在沒有監督的情況下運作。管理人員無需爲貨架堆垛機繼續堆垛貨架和採購部門採購產品做任何事情。所有者很可能與公司運營的成功無關。
然而,收銀員仍然管理商店中產品的所有者所有權。他們可以在沒有所有者的情況下完成他們的工作。他們基本上做了所有的工作,卻沒有獲得所有權的任何好處。
Once a company is set up it doesn't really need owners anymore. You could say that owners take investment away from the company that could grow in scale and size without owners taking profits out the company.
I use the example of a supermarket logistics network. Once the people are all placed and people know what they are doing and doing it, the organisation operates without oversight. The managers don't need to do anything for the shelf stackers to keep stacking shelves and the procurement department to procure products. The owners may well be irrelevant to the success of the operation of the company.
Yet the cashiers still mange the ownership of the owners ownership of products in the store. They could well do their job without owners. They essentially do all the work and get none of the benefits of ownership.
