Only would only those in the community be able to invest in bonds? Otherwise big investors would invest in promising ideas. Who is in a community? Who is the community for a global operation?
I like the idea, but I think it'd be really hard to apply to things like tech or businesses with global infrastructure.
I'm not sure what you mean... This is already a thing that happens and is happening. You could choose who the bonds are available to if you want to avoid a corporation or single entity buying them all up. Or have rules around maximum % ownership, things like that.
In terms of worker-owned co-operatives, and all that, If you want to understand how something like this might work on a larger scale, look into Germany's laws around employee ownership/participation, in corporations, as well as the Mondragon Corporation in Spain
