everything wrong with the world, capitalism, climate change, etc can be framed as a game theory coordination dilemma. How do you get people to cooperate at scale in an anti-fragile way (not exploitable)? Solve that and we are post-scarcity
There are two ways to do it, that I think must work hand in hand.
Firstly,we must reduce the stakes of anyone in any given domain. This can be done by (partially) tying wealth to employment and reducing inequality. Indeed, in a hypothetical society where most companies are mostly worker owned, then the owners of the company do not have that much of an incentive in hiring climate change, because ultimately if the company folded and they changed domains they would not lose that much, and the cost of climate change is bigger relative to their stake since everyone's stake is lower.
Another part of the answer will be government, unavoidably. Hopefully, a less unequal economy that has a lot more worker ownership will allow for much more democratic government, as it will be much harder for any individual to have the resources to exploit government directly or indirectly.
That doesn't seem to track what I have seen with real societies - people will do all sorts of horrible things for petty advantages to non-advantages. Look at the sheer damage corruption does as they sell government resources for pennies on the dollar because it isn't their money.
Also even if you somehow made the worker economy (which seems to have become less likely since the end of literal cottage industries) given productivity's linkage to capital investment that would still result in resources to exploit a government. It is called a voting bloc. Coal miners don't want to give up mining coal despite the negative health effects and other mining jobs being available. The uncomfortable truth is 'a more democratic government' and 'a government that does everything you specifically want' are not compatible.
Coal miners will absolutely never, as a voting bloc, have anywhere near the power of the Energy Industry. It's also much easier to change their minds, by giving them another job at a net zero cost to society, than it is for a billionaire oil tycoon.
I agree that a democratic government won't do everything that should be done, but it's the least worst option we have. The best way to reduce corruption is to attack the class system.
