I didn't see anything about force there at all - the "how" is not, AFAIK, specified.
as a member of the public I do not think that striping people of their legally aquited wealth is a good thing, but forced sales - now that might be justifiable. Of course there are a lot of fish hooks in that too - but there's no need to make it sound like the October Revolution.

I guess a good starting point would be for the workers to come up with enough cashflow to secure 51% of the business.

I don't believe I mentioned willingness or otherwise anywhere.
But never mind - carry on with not even trying to understand what I posted

As I said - I imagine it would take a very long time to change society - longer than my remaining lifetime.
but, as always, feel free to make the assumptions you need in order to not have to actually think about the problem.
