We need workers to own the economy

We need an economic system that rewards acting in the common good. This system, but with the workers in charge is still this system which rewards all the bad stuff of modern capitalism

A single owner-dictator is less likely to make decisions for the common good than all employees owning their workplaces together.

Socialism, however it's implemented (besides state capitalism a la China, which also isn't socialist), necessarily moves us closer to what you're saying.
