You mean buy out shares?
No doubt. My father's family were farmers during communist times he went to school and wanted nothing to do with it, became a manager or a supervisor at an armament plant. He told me how his family work very hard all their lives, there was absolutely no money in it. The had a house, food, some clothes. If it wasn't for the grandparents sending money from France they could have never afforded to buy a car. People were eager to work but for something. In the Soviet Union after Gorbachev came to power he allowed the collective farmers to grow small plots behind their homes. Those tiny plots produced some 30% of the USSRs grains, tomatoes, potatoes, fruits etc. A huge bountiful land land Russia had to import grain from the US? what a joke. People didn't do their job because there was nothing in it for them.
Yugoslav self-management idea - let the workers own the factories

but limit the financial intervention to only providing loans for such places to open to begin with.
but if this had been a serious threat in Poland, the workers would have done what it takes to keep the place alive - especially if the alternative was some horrific State-sponsored work that really existed to keep people in food, shelter and clothing and absolutely nothing else.
