is simply a number of people working to the same end. Instead of
being satisfied to accept whatever quality, whatever prices and
whatever service private business wishes to impose on them, they
reason that it is better to be in business for themselves. They own
the business that furnishes them with goods and services, they con
trol the policies and share the profits. By democratic processes
hey actually run their own business.
The immediate savings are by no means the only benefits ac
cruing from this system. In every community where cooperative
enterprise exists, it operates as an effective control of monopoly,
and as a safeguard against exploitation. Thus the whole commu
nity benefits because a group of its citizens has the courage and the
initiative to strive to better their condition collectively by coopera
tive enterprise.
