In corporations, shareholders hand down decisions from above. People who work at the corporation do not have a say in what decisions are made. If the decisions negatively affect the workers, the workers have no way to make things better for themselves unless they're in a union.

In a co-operative, workers vote on decisions that affect them directly. People who work at the co-op have an intimate say in what decisions are made. If the decisions negatively affect the workers, they are able to have their voices heard, and make positive changes.

Corporations make money for people who do not work at the company, and do not work for the company. The people who pull in the profits are shareholders-- outside investors who own shares in that company. At a corporation, workers are paid a fraction of the value of their labor.

Co-operatives make money for the people who work directly in that store, at that company. There are no outsiders who pump the profits away from the workers. At a co-op, workers are paid close to the full value of their labor.
