Why haven't "buying clubs" become more common with internet?
For example, 100 cat owners could join together, approach different cat food providers and bargain a discount through joint-purchasing.
My guess is that the venture capital model makes us only think in terms of what works as a capitalist firm.
Ventures like buying clubs make more sense as #coops or mutuals. The largest hardware store chain (Ace Hardware) and carpet flooring firm (CCA Global) in the US are both purchasing coops.

angry woke nonsense
It's not conservative vs liberal
It's not LGBTQ vs cishet
It's not even PoC vs white supremacists
It's RICH vs POOR, and one side is buying propaganda to make us fight over every divide EXCEPT for the class divide. Can we all just step away from each other's throats for ten fucking minutes, kill all of the landlords, and then get back to your regularly scheduled social war?
