Socialist plan at Elkhart store sparks small shareholders
Special to the Indianapolis Journal reports in Elkhart Indiana that socialist ideas will be piloted at a local grocery store by small shareholders. The plan aims to distribute ownership and influence among Core community members, reflecting broader cooperative ideals in the region.
Socialists Plan Cooperative Department Store In Elkhart
Elkhart Socialists outline a socialistic cooperative venture with a department store model. Members buy $25 certificates, no more than one per person, and profits are shared quarterly based on each member’s assessed business with the store. Initial stage includes a grocery setup with gradual expansion to a full department store under a manager and board.
