I don’t think you can sell a worker cooperative the same way you can a private business as a scum sucking capitalist because it would be extremely difficult to exploit a work force that suddenly is flush with cash and has no personal stake in the business any longer. They would only agree to sell the business collectively, and they would likely all bail as soon as the sale was finalized, leaving a bunch of manufacturing equipment with no one to run it. They could probably convince some dipshit venture capitalist or hedge fund manager to buy but they wouldn’t have gotten anywhere near the same price because a large part of the value to those assholes is the potential for future exploitation.
