Profit sharing would be a good start but like you said companies will find ways around it.

I dont have an answer but I do feel like the current capitalist/stock market system is leading towards its "finale" sooner than later. I mean, you can only grow for so long and it seems like so many companies in all sectors have become soley beholden to the stock holders and have to always increase revenue and profits even when they make 100billion in profit thats not enough cause they made that much last year. So instead of just focusing on providing a great product and making enough money to keep the company afloat and pay the employees a living wage they must always expand and cut costs by making the product worse for consumers.

/conspiracy rant over

regardless employee profit sharing would be a good start, also banning stock buybacks which used to be illegal before.....rich people needed to be richer
