    I dunno, I live in a place run by a co-op and it’s really just a group of tyrannical old people with nothing to do, who want to control everyone’s life and are every bit as greedy as corporations.

      If it’s run by a group of tyrannical old people that can’t be usurped, it’s not really a co-op.

        They can be usurped. Just nobody wants to run it, young residents don’t want to be involved or don’t have time, so you end up with the old busy bodies with nothing to do running it. They run unopposed a lot

          Then you get what you get. we live in a Strata, people complain the council makes decisions they don’t like, but nobody steps forward each year at vote time to offer themselves as a new council member.

            Correct. At the yearly meetings that include elections, there’s like a 25% turnout at most
