Point out that most people in a liberal society do end up working in a collective. You're going to be working on a team of other people, and you're going to try to achieve tasks together as a collective. That's the nature of vast majority of jobs regardless of what type of political system you have. So, then the question becomes is it better for people doing the work to collectively decide on how they work or to be dictated to by a business owner.
