You go to school, get an engineering degree, then bust your ass working long hours. I drop out of school to get stoned and I sit at home finger painting. We both get paid the same.

What is this, I don't even... Non-income inequality, the fuck is this?zombie wrote:i guess it depends on what you mean by income inequality. if you mean that people can work to improve their situation above others in the same field is inequality, then yeah i guess it is not possible for that to exist in capitalism.Jigsaw wrote:
Not really. A system I want is theoretically possible. Non-income inequality causing capitalism isn't.

I seriously think he at some extent does. There's no way to get his shit to work then to drain the middle class even more.zombie wrote:i doubt seriously that that is what jigsaw wants, in a system.Foo wrote:You go to school, get an engineering degree, then bust your ass working long hours.

It is a side effect of good times. We create problems to give ourselves purpose.Jmac Attack wrote:Neither have I. But you can't deny the tension between the left and right. We are becoming more and more of those two ideologies. And that sucks.Foo wrote:It is not really though.

Why would you box yourself into defending that lunatic?
If we were embroiled in a massive war that had to be fought or we would lose everything, we would be united. We are so far removed from that sort of thing that we argue over minutiae like it is life or death.
Think about this for a moment. A dude who was on the second highest court for many years got promoted to the highest court. People are acting like it is the end of the world.
Hint: nothing in your life will change. It is not that big if a deal. A bunch of dried up old tarts are worried about abortion? Really? No one wants to fuck them anyway. It is no big deal.

maybe. if he decides to give you some kind of indication of what he wants in such a system, then we can discuss and debate, see if it could work. but shitting all over it without giving the chance for him to give his view, doesn't really feel productive at all.Reign in Blood wrote:I seriously think he at some extent does.

it's possible. i was curious if it allowed for movie production and such myself, or if he felt like that would be worth sacrificing for such a system.Foo wrote:Wanna bet his ideal system gives practically no reason to take risks to start a business and little incentive to work hard?zombie wrote:i doubt seriously that that is what jigsaw wants, in a system.Foo wrote:You go to school, get an engineering degree, then bust your ass working long hours.

Re: Presidential gaffes and jokes......
BTW, I am betting on idealist bullshit, no real way to pay for anything to actually work for the country at large. But, as you wish, I'll let him conjure up his grand plan to save us from this evil capitalism.zombie wrote:it's possible. i was curious if it allowed for movie production and such myself, or if he felt like that would be worth sacrificing for such a system.Foo wrote:Wanna bet his ideal system gives practically no reason to take risks to start a business and little incentive to work hard?zombie wrote:i doubt seriously that that is what jigsaw wants, in a system.Foo wrote:You go to school, get an engineering degree, then bust your ass working long hours.

Re: Presidential gaffes and jokes......
Why don't we just skip to the logical end, which is everyone getting a weekly shipment of morphine and fentanyl to keep complacent.
Re: Presidential gaffes and jokes......
Also, Jiggy can't articulate his position after like 6 years of advocating for it. I think implementation is gonna be a real bitch.
Re: Presidential gaffes and jokes......
i suspect that it will be some kind of balance between capitalism and socialism, that he has in mind. but we'll see if he feels like putting it forth.Reign in Blood wrote:BTW, I am betting on idealist bullshit, no real way to pay for anything to actually work for the country at large.

you don't want people griping when they see faults in the system. complacency to the general population seems like something that would be right up your alley.Foo wrote:Why don't we just skip to the logical end, which is everyone getting a weekly shipment of morphine and fentanyl to keep complacent.

Re: Presidential gaffes and jokes......
and i don't either. i don't want hand outs to be the norm. and those that are given hand outs should be given them only in return for "volunteer" work, unless they're unable.Foo wrote:I don't like people griping because they don't think they are given enough.zombie wrote:you don't want people griping when they see faults in the system. complacency to the general population seems like something that would be right up your alley.Foo wrote:Why don't we just skip to the logical end, which is everyone getting a weekly shipment of morphine and fentanyl to keep complacent.

Why don't they just get a regular job? That is "Volunteer" work for pay.zombie wrote:and i don't either. i don't want hand outs to be the norm. and those that are given hand outs should be given them only in return for "volunteer" work, unless they're unable.Foo wrote:I don't like people griping because they don't think they are given enough.zombie wrote:you don't want people griping when they see faults in the system. complacency to the general population seems like something that would be right up your alley.Foo wrote:Why don't we just skip to the logical end, which is everyone getting a weekly shipment of morphine and fentanyl to keep complacent.
Lots of able people are unable when given the option.

"unable" isn't optional. if there were more jobs to go around, that would also be a good step.Foo wrote:Why don't they just get a regular job?
