@dphiffer There's some really interesting discussions/debates about positive spill-over effects of co-ops.

One example is pricing: should consumer co-ops price at market rate and return the profit to members, benefiting them, but not influencing the overall price structure? Or should they aim to minimize margins, thus cutting into the profitability of capitalist firms by reducing prices market-wide?
