Despite what the GOP would have you believe, The US and EU have actually achieved post-scarcity, China is close. You should be fighting for post-inequality because that is what is holding back the rest of the world, as well as millions of citizens of the US and EU.
Yes, we’re just passing a bunch of money around at the top.
It’s why I almost never take Americans seriously when they say they ‘need’ more money. They don’t know what that word means, or what hard work really is.
Oh really? Americans don’t ever need more money? How about these Americans? They’re doing fine on whatever they can panhandle from people leaving the Walmart parking lot and dumpster food?
United States owns 30% of the worlds wealth while having the 4.2% of the worlds total population, though. Does a group of people need more food ehen most of them are starving because a few of them hoarded 95% of it and are sitting on it doing nothing…?
The claim was that you shouldn’t take Americans seriously when they say they need more money. I would say those Americans should be taken seriously if that’s what they say, especially the ones with full-time jobs who are still living in tents because the rent is too high.
Sure. We don’t work hard. Talk to me when you have spent 25 years in American kitchens to fund your own businesses, the first 5 of which never took off, but also consistently failed to drive me into bankruptcy. The 6th one finally works for me, and I’m finally not having to work 18 hour days 7 days a week.
Yeah. That’s definitely working harder than most people have throughout history for less.
My bad.
the first 5 of which never took off, but also consistently failed to drive me into bankruptcy.
Lol, don’t blame your failed business ventures on me. If you think ‘hard work’ is all it takes to make a successful business, I’m sorry, that’s just a testament to why 5 of your businesses failed.
and I’m finally not having to work 18 hour days 7 days a week.
Let me guess, you’re also living a higher quality of life than the vast majority of people ever to live while working considerably less. And here you are, still finding ways to complain.
Please take your complaints to the people subsistence farming or picking through landfills for a living. All your post does is prove my point that you don’t understand what hard work really is, or what the word need really means.
The people who designed this were paid to design this. I presume that at least some of them have children. Therefore, resources spent to invent this did go to give children food, water, shelter, etc.
Oh but didn’t you hear? When we live on the commune we can all do like…arts and crafts and stuff…all day. And we don’t really know how, but stuff will get done while we fingerpaint and there will be no poverty or hunger!
Of course they aren’t ok. They may think they are, but they are having to recognize that while the system may have worked for them, and me, it certainly doesn’t for most people and they can’t handle that.
Love this is what we spend our resources on while children go without food, water, electricity, education, and shelter.

Oh… and some of those people? Full-time employed.

Move out of the major city. Nobody is entitled to live there. Supply and demand.
Again, I don’t live in a major city.
Cool. Then you don’t have a significant issue of people working fulltime but can’t afford living quarters.
Do the people in the picture you posted live in a major city? Cause that’s who I was referring to.
Looks like they’re living in a major city.
Supply and demand.
They can leave and their money will go way further. The problem is, a lot of people living in major cities feel they’re entitled to do so.
I don’t live in a major city and we have the same thing here. So no.
I don’t believe you.
Ok, I guess that’s your right, I guess…
You may live outside of a major city, but then you don’t have the problems from the picture you posted and the explanation you gave.

You’re welcome.
Yeah, they could’ve done something else useful for society and still support their families.
For what? Your mental gymnastics? Lol.
Lol.
Look at the authoritarian communist, dictating how other people must live their lives.
Let’s round up all the artists and musicians too, because they’re not feeding kids or something.

Huh? Improve your literacy, and reread the word I wrote in front of communist.
That comment was dripping with sarcasm, but you couldn’t comprehend it because it didn’t have an /s
Lol the irony
Lol your irony

Oh look, a butthurt capitalist
Authoritarian capitalism isn’t much better, but fortunately, I included the word authoritarian.
Can you people stay on topic?
You mean, like how the original commenter did?
What do you mean? I was talking about how the dress is a waste of resources, then he started talking about artists and musicians.
You are not on topic, and now you’re crying because people are staying on your new topic.
🥱
Sorry, you need to brush up on your rhetoric and reading comprehension.
Might want to take a remedial English course at your local community college.
Gonna block you now.
HRRRRRR
You okay there?
Capitalists doing capitalist shit.
Of course they aren’t ok. They may think they are, but they are having to recognize that while the system may have worked for them, and me, it certainly doesn’t for most people and they can’t handle that.
My god, go back to lemmygrad.
My internet, please go back to Reddit where your capitalist takes will be supported.
