I remember my first job as a baker.
I would come in, focus an dedicate my craft to making the most exquisite cakes, cupcakes, macarons, ice cream and so forth.
I would take 100$ worth of products and turn it into a few grand worth of baked goods.
I mean, they sold six macarons for 15$, I would make 500-800 a day.
And then, I would realize that I had been paid 90$ for that (eh, I was much younger and minimum wage was different) and I realized then that the real moochers aren't who you think it is.
That the American description of socialism where you work hard and people who didn't work at all come and take your hard work's benefits applied mostly to capitalism and my boss.
I realized that I could make the company 3-4k a day, only for them to pay me 90$ a day.
And I started being a leftist ever since.
I make the economy go round, you make the economy go round and anyone just investing money in the stock market to get richer is a sycophant of our hard work.
I mean be my guest, hate me but this is logical.
The real moochers are the rich.
And the worst are the landlords who think it's a job.
Owning a house you wait rent for to pay mortgage with is not a fucking job.
Your tenant are doing you a solid.

There are so many expenses beyond your payroll. There are cost of goods, overhead, insurance, taxes, loss of goods, finance costs, just to name a few.
Not to mention the headaches that come with running a business. For you, you got $90 a day whether a muffin was sold or not. The owner took all the risk and so therefore will take all the reward.
And if you say, "the reward is not commensurate with the output of work that the owner has performed" My answer would be, why don't you do it yourself? The truth is you wont do it yourself, probably because it is harder than you are willing to admit.
I am actually surprised at how simple minded this comment was from you, because even though you are typically an asshole, you don't come off as low-IQ.
