Unemployment. Honest debate.

[Anomalocaris]

Well, I am glad to see that you are so excited about this. I am sure you will be standing in line for the first job that offers only $.89 pay for a 12 hour day of hard labor. Surely you will insist that the company not give you benefits or medical ins as well, since you are so gung ho about this.

How long do you really think a economy will continue to be able to do so if ut were to try to pay you $50 for a 3 hour day when the rest of the world gets 8 hours of more productive work out of $40?

Here is a good question.

Is there currently enough resources to clothe feed and give every human the basic necessity's of life? Because currently that is not happening.

Once we know the answer to that question we can develop ways to spread these resources to benefit all humans.

I will justify my thinking by saying that, I did not choose to be born in the US, I did not choose to have good parents, I did not choose to be a male, I did not choose to be white.

Ahh but religion is a great way to artificially make yourself better than someone else!!!! When in reality we are all the exact same, besides superficial differences.

So how can I hold any of these things against anyone else?

There is enough resource to ensure everyone has the necessities of life, which I define simply as food to eat, a home to live in, medical care available to all. What is missing is the will to distribute the wealth of the world more evenly to achieve that end.

But didnt you know?!?! The Libertarian types consider that to be bad for humanity. The only way it should work is that the best Libertarian be crowned Emperor, and that all other people be his slaves.

Any intelligent people with an interest in the long term prosperity of the world would consider it bad to reward people for wanting to take more while menifestly giving back less (Assurance of being fed and clothed for just breathing when others could have taken the same pay and make ipads).

Refusing to allow people to be paid the same for flipping burgers as making ipads is the a far different thing from providing emergency relief to tie an otherwise productive ipad maker over brief period of unemployment.
