    Look the keybord socialist chimes in splitting the take with your employees yet? Yeah did not think  so . 

     

    I'm the sole advocate for the interests of labor in management so I do what I can. It's weird how people who struggled and grew up poor are the most willing to subject their own employees to the same struggle. Crabs in a barrel.

    I got some Cop buddies but most of these dudes that are Police are fucking wack job egotistical maniacs .

    I had a run in with a "retired Police officer" from my town the other night. The dude was the most angry rude motherfucker ive met in awhile. Probably beats his wife is my guess. 

    40% of cops openly admit to being domestic abusers so the actual number is probably 80ish%

    Yep capitalism lol that was the only reason 

    Capitalism is why pretty much everything happens/doesn't happen.

    If it doesn't pay, it doesn't get done.

  4. Capitalism and extreme poverty: A global analysis of real wages, human height, and mortality since the long 16th century.

    https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0305750X22002169#b0680

     

    Highlights

    The common notion that extreme poverty is the “natural” condition of humanity and only declined with the rise of capitalism rests on income data that do not adequately capture access to essential goods.

     

    Data on real wages suggests that, historically, extreme poverty was uncommon and arose primarily during periods of severe social and economic dislocation, particularly under colonialism.

     

    The rise of capitalism from the long 16th century onward is associated with a decline in wages to below subsistence, a deterioration in human stature, and an upturn in premature mortality.

     

    In parts of South Asia, sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America, wages and/or height have still not recovered.

     

    Where progress has occurred, significant improvements in human welfare began only around the 20th century. These gains coincide with the rise of anti-colonial and socialist political movements.

    You were the lone wolf then and a few friends I'm sure. 

    Just those of us who didn't labor under the illusion the media has been shoving down our throats the last 40 years. 

    The US had this coming, and it surprised no one who was paying attention and not blinded by flags and apple pie.
