as a hs dropout who got into the field thanks to anti-credentialism I don't relish that the door will eventually shut to the next gen

Agreed on many, but doesn't employee equity put labor on the same side of table as capital (re growth at least)

Maybe. But I’m not so motivated by labor vs capital, so much as organized vs. undisciplied.
-
Yes but means interests are often aligned (e.g. growth)
