Because it doesn't. It's not as if we hadn't tried it and watched it fail over and over and over.....
"If we don't let them rape and pillage we wont have any of their precious, precious moniez!!! Double plus ungood!"
OFC it does, "Money" is for profit and requires labor to produce it. Even the most exotic financial instrument has a tenous but often lethal connection to that reality. When the asset the bet is made on becomes toxic - the bet becomes worthless. Unfortunately, lobbyists have engineered it so that the profits from those bets are privatized even though we socialize the losses.
More fairy tales, and awfully damned cheeky. Trying to defend extortion by reference to a job you totally had in real estate?
Yeah, it's called labor and productivity. Unlike trickle down bullshit it actually works. It's what the trickle down acolytes exploit to make their products, and to sell their products, and to create the funds they then suck up as corporate handouts. I feel like it shouldn't be a controversial opinion to suggest that the working masses and the country as a whole not get fucked by corporate overlords or the rich engaging in next level welfare queenism.
-and yet here we are.
I'd figure you'd be onboard..we're basically discussing moneychangers are we not? The world could use a few more flipped tables. But if that just doesn't tickle your indignation bone..its fucking unamerican and anti-capitalist. Capital and markets do not move freely when we allow a tiny fraction of individuals to extort the entire system, and the government is certainly not by the people, of the people, or even -for- the people when it sides with those interests over the interests of it's citizens. Im not interested in pinko shit -or- a corrupt oligarchy.
So tell me again why these hookers need to be given more money and concessions to incentivize them..whilst giving money or concessions to the working poor only makes them lazy?
K'den, your the rich fuck taking care of poor people!? They will not send you a fathers day card! You know whom they are, they are your employees! Without them you ain't shit! With out your leadership, they will run around like Wal-Mart employees! With your love they will kick ass! Whom have to put their children through college so that those children can, potentially, be as big a dumbfuck as you and employ more dumbfucks!!! Yeah, that'll work!
I belong to the black letter version of AARP! American Association of Rich People! We don't employ dumbfucks! We are "Keeping America strong and useful"! Because, we are weird and we are not dumbfucks!
Fuck dude! Have you ever tried being fucking weird, rich and actually hire dumbfucks and teach them how to be great? So that they can hire more dumbfucks and teach them how to be great? So on and so on?
It's as easy as God's love! Oh, I forgot--atheists can't employ God's love because there is no God! Sucks to be you!
Remember how you talk about God while knowing you live on an Island European Dominionists stole from polytheists.
And what the fuck do you mean "sucks to be you"?
If you think it sucks to not believe, you are a fool. I live my life fine without sky heros and I don't fear any fictional after life just like I don't fear my non existence before I was born. Your projectionism mundane and underwhelming.
Being anti monopoly is not a call to end private property or even private business. But in a multi class system, there is a western concept of laws that are supposed to prevent anything from becoming too big, be it one religion, one political party, one class, and that anti monopoly concept applies to the private sector.
If you think China is not capitalist and does not allow the private sector, next time you buy something at your local Walmart check the damned label. OVER THERE their workers have even LESS RIGHTS and make far less. Is that your idea of competition? Their factory labor gets TREATED LIKE SHIT, and they have entire dorms where workers work 12 to 16 hours a day 6 to 7 days a week.
That is not raising living standards, that is exploitation. Humans are not the property of the rich. If you think that one class knows what is best for everyone else, move to China and work in one of their factories for a week. You'd be crying for you mommy.
I am nobody's property, and I vote, and I have a voice.
