Re: Police: "We only kill black people"
This sounds very much like a US problem. Here there's tons of metrics and data around satisfaction, response time, and myriad other metrics which all are a very key yardstick for government employees. I can't quite see how you've got this bureaucratic hellscape you end. But sucks to be you.

so then productivity and care is not dependent on greed. there is more to it than that.Foo wrote:OF course firing people who are not performing as expected would change the culture. They have been fat and happy for too long.
Re: Police: "We only kill black people"
Sucks to be someone reliant upon the government, which is why I prefer freedom over socialist healthcare and the like. Is pretty good to be Foo. Hard work, though. :pshowa58taro wrote:This sounds very much like a US problem.

Ok. I guess I am the only person who is generally underwhelmed with their dealings with government. Glad it is the excellent experience for you that they promise.zombie wrote:so then productivity and care is not dependent on greed. there is more to it than that.Foo wrote:OF course firing people who are not performing as expected would change the culture.

"given everything" implies that they are not working, or trying to find work, at all. if that's the case, then they don't earn anything.Foo wrote:And who would wash dishes and suck the shit out of skeptics if everyone is given everything?zombie wrote:correction: because they need money. if they were in a position that money wasn't a necessity, largely, they would seek out ways to earn money that they also enjoyed or felt fulfillment from.Foo wrote:

Re: Police: "We only kill black people"
you want there to be change, but insist that everyone is driven by greed, so unless there is an increase in the wage earned, nothing will change even with new employees. and that is based, solely, on what you've presented in your argument. if you have a different viewpoint that isn't coming through how you've been arguing, then that's cool too. but i can only discuss and debate, based around what you're posting.Foo wrote:Ok.

Re: Police: "We only kill black people"
Gotta be the only one. I got two buddies who moved their families to Europe and China, respectively. Both came back divorced, with both citing not only a cultural change, but dealing with a more infringing government etc. as big reasons.Foo wrote:Ok.

Re: Police: "We only kill black people"
also, while we're on the subject of not being satisfied with government employees... what is a police officer exactly?
Re: Police: "We only kill black people"
First of all, there is no such thing as trying to find work. Every time I hear that said the person has been "trying" to not find it for years. If a person has not worked for it, it was given to them.zombie wrote:"given everything" implies that they are not working, or trying to find work, at all. if that's the case, then they don't earn anything.Foo wrote:And who would wash dishes and suck the shit out of skeptics if everyone is given everything?zombie wrote:correction: because they need money. if they were in a position that money wasn't a necessity, largely, they would seek out ways to earn money that they also enjoyed or felt fulfillment from.Foo wrote:

Re: Police: "We only kill black people"
capitalism should be based on productivity and care in the work you're doing, or service you're providing to people, and not about greed. if everyone is only driven by greed, then something needs to change on a cultural level. but i don't think that is the case.

Re: Police: "We only kill black people"
maybe sometimes greedy. (not necessarily money-wise) everyone has flaws or shortcomings. and those should be worked on.Foo wrote:You don't think you are ever greedy?zombie wrote:capitalism should be based on productivity and care in the work you're doing, or service you're providing to people, and not about greed. if everyone is only driven by greed, then something needs to change on a cultural level. but i don't think that is the case.
