That's almost anarcho-syndicalism, which I am a proponent of some of the ideas of, but it leaves capital and government generally intact. That's probably the easiest way we could transition away from capitalism as we know it and not collapse the system entirely. It sounds almost feasible.
Oh yeah, certainly. And one of the first steps in that direction -- the corporate death sentence -- is just common sense.
(The corporate death sentence is basically "any company that does more damage than it can reasonably repair gets converted into a co-op controlled by its workers / victims. The investors' shares get dissolved.")
I don't think anyone would have a reasonable objection to allowing the voters of East Palestine, Ohio and the workers for Norfolk Southern to elect all of the company's board members from here on out. And I don't think anyone would weep for Norfolk Southern's shareholders if their shares got dissolved.
