A co-operative business is one which is primarily owned by the people who use it. If the business is profitable, the profit is turned back into the hands of the people who use the business's services.
For example, if I am a member of a co-operative grocery store and buy $6000 worth of groceries there per annum, at the end of the year, the business may make enough profit to return 1 cent for every dollar I spent there, so I get a $60 cheque. My neighbour with the large family who spent three times as much there would get a $180 cheque.

List at least three different theories about the death of Edgar Allan Poe?
The alcohol consumption theory: Poe was known to go on drinking binges especially when experiencing bouts of depression such as when his wife Virginia died. At one time he had been fired from his job as editor at because of his drinking. Poe had been engaged shortly before his death but the woman broke it off because Poe would not stop drinking. The theory that alcohol caused his death exists because Poe was found one morning delirious on a sidewalk in front of a saloon, yet there never was a first hand account of this. Poe's enemies automatically attributed his death to drunkenness, but no one could say that they had seen him drunk the night before. Poe's enemies were obviously motivated to choose the cause of death that would be most disparaging to Poe's reputation.The brain disease theory: A second theory is that Poe suffered from some type of disease of the brain. There was no death certificate with an official cause of death; however, a newspaper account of his death referred to "congestion of the brain" as the cause. Before Poe died, a number of people close to him stated that they felt that Poe was suffering from some sort of brain lesion.The Cooping theory: Cooping was a practice whereby local gangs would grab people off the street, bring them to a room (the coop) and either get them drunk or beat them until they agreed to vote in a particular way and possibly several times. Poe was found in a delirious state with bruises and wearing the clothes of a different person. He was on the sidewalk outside a saloon that was being used as a polling place that day. The bruises, the delirium and the different clothing are all consistent with the cooping practice. Poe could have been delirious because of being being gotten drunk and or beaten. The different clothes can be explained by being forced to vote once in his own clothes then again in someone else's. In other words, both the alcohol and congestion of the brain theories can be explained by the cooping theory as well.The alcohol consumption theory: Poe was known to go on drinking binges especially when experiencing bouts of depression such as when his wife Virginia died.
