In order to prevent my p99 personality devolving into:
proxy.duckduckgo.com.jpg I decided to lay off Israel a bit. I think the big issues the right will never solve is baseline healthcare and education. They seem to avidly against it and I'm not sure why. People need baseline housing, education, healthcare, and food in order to thrive. This isn't the cave days, none of us individually earned everything we enjoy from being part of an advanced industrial economy. Many of the self-identified libertarians here would probably have to admit they benefited from someone else providing these things for them. Why get so damn self-righteous about other people getting the same? Were supposed to be a meritocracy right? People should have enough -- if the country can afford it -- so that they can't blame their most life circumstances on bad luck. So that they can take accountability and buy into the America meritocratic myth. A baseline safety net and a better school-to-work pipeline would probably prevent a lot of wasted talent from my perspective. | ||

When you agitate for Lenin, you are joining the corpus of violence and threatening political instability which drives that market force that dictates we'll eventually buy off the plebs. It's not evil per se, so long as the system is indeed flexible enough that it decides to purchase your civility before it's too late and your ideas start piking up heads. But it's aggressive and it's undignified. it's threatening violence to get what you want. there is no cause for righteous indignation. we are leaves blowing in the wind my dear. let the process go at its own speed. let the system have its time to flex to the new reality, instead of pushing pushing and risking the big "snap". let people who can't grasp the risk do the agitating, as slowly as possible. I know you are eager to see the inevitable future "capitalism of plenty" (it will be way better than today) but chilllll before you break the damn thing. you, be patient and focus your work on yourself and your nice body. | |||

I'm picturing a gold mine. The gold mine has peasent's paid a living wage mining the gold. Soldiers collecting the gold and keeping order, and the king who gathers all the gold and pays the peasants and soldiers.
You say its the peasent's fault for complaining about the king. But you can just as easily point the blame at the king for underpaying them, or the soldiers for upholding a corrupt system. Who is actually producing the gold however? Who is actually creating the wealth and not redirecting it? Who is really the most replaceable party in the system? While the king is managing the operation -- he is certainly collecting more than reward than he produces himself. The peasants however, the peasants are always paid less then they produce...far less. And that's ok when paying for the expenses of management and order. But not for the surplus. Owning the goldmine is just a mechanism for theft of the actual productive forces. It seems fair only because those smart enough to understand this want to be king someday. | ||
