I do agree that the mininum labor-capital ratio needs to be migitated as required for the purposes of the particular industry involved; the entire idea is still only in its theoretical stages, and I do think it'd take some experimentation to figure out what works best for the industry in question. Perhaps instead of universally imposing a single standard for the entire scope of industry, it might be best for the United Nation to promote a world-wide initiative for each business to discover the best labour-stock ratio for themselves, rewarding those businessess which go beyond what is strictly profitable for themselves in the absence of government (and taxing those which obviously do not, according to the data collected for such a purpose). The labor-stock ratio economic hypothesis was always meant to promote the interests of the laborers (in having a job, and a corporate voice) as an economic interest for their employers; only by making more of the laboring class into potential consumers, can their voice be properly heard in the market (something which government intervention per socialism/communism can never do). Rather than creating internal revenue services within each country (which is already unnecessary bueracracy), the government would probably do better to serve as the watchman of the laborer class' long-term interest in being employed by gathering the requiste economic data to make such a system as described above operable.
