      Did you realize it is because one can only pretend to be doing another a favor for so long while exploiting them before that fact becomes obvious? If that wasn't your realization you missed.

      The most employable people on Earth. They love working, they're grateful, and love hard work. (and WOW smart!). lol.
      _"Instead of eloquently explaining what "MEME" means... he MOCKS Peter. lol._
      Imagine if he instead said, _The concept of a 'meme' was first popularized by Dawkins' _Selfish Gene,_ but has taken like 25 years to start catching on. He used it to make an analog of a gene, passing phenotypic traits by Mendelian statistics ... whereas MEMES compete for people's desire to replicate itself through conversations (similar to how genes do but _sociologically_ ) ... to spread itself based on it's competitive advantage.
      Then, his dummass demanded people listen to his REMEDIAL ideas that he YELLED. Not realizing WALMART plays within the rules the GOV MADE regulating employee healthcare policies.
      Think about how eeeTARDED-RAY he is ... he has a RARE opportunity to LISTEN to someone that is unlike ANYONE he not only knows, but ever has or WILL know. Yet, he wanted to hear himSELF talk.
      He flips out bc the EPA or Dept of Edu are VERY bad ideas ...
      But he never ONCE explains why they're necessary.
      _"I wanna have a conversation n ax you su'in."_ (Instead of just asking):
      Via TIGHTLY LINKED POINTS,
      (SKIP ALL OBVIOUS POINTS)
      ...That UNAMBIGUOUSLY LEADS TO a CLEAR CONCLUSION.
      Not ONE PERSON there had that ability. So it is NO MISTAKE that they are resentful, don't know how to make money, and are broke.
      Running ANY business in which ALL TAXES ARE. PAID TO THE TEE ... is INORDINATELY EXPENSIVE.
      But look who's here axin fu hand-outs !!!

      The Founding Fathers were right to institute a republican form of government. Processes such as voting and elections are vital for the public to express themselves politically, but when it comes to governance, decision making should be based on expertise rather than mob rule. A republican form of governance tries to strike a balance between having the voices of the people heard and having effective governance by technocrats.

      I regularly argue with three democratic socialists and a communist in a discord server. The communist is probably a troll, but two of the three demsocs are unemployed (one gets welfare, one is living off a dwindling inheritance), and the third works online captioning videos. I work in construction making lower wages than the captioner. They have sources, citations, and some valid points...that sound good in theory, but have never worked historically, and miss the point of my arguments entirely.
      Funny thing is, they're relativists and I'm an absolutist, but they speak in the most absolute terms and I speak in the most relative terms.

      Its not as though the IDEA of socialism is bad. Socialist ideals are wonderful... but the execution of a socialist system ALWAYS leads to problems.
      The first issue is human nature. People are inherently lazy. If we all were given everything we wanted, and given the choice to get up at 6am and work at MacDonalds... no one would. But someone has to... So immediately you get slackers... then there is jealousy. Then no one works.. and with no production, the products disappear. No more bread, no more food, no one disposing of trash... etc...

An individual could spend a solid 5-7 hours watching educational videos on our monetary system and economics, and learn 10 times more then a college graduate has ever learned in their entire 16 years of school. These people don't realize they are massively undereducated or miseducated when it comes to our financial system. Hopefully he encouraged people to educate themselves.

If you can be convinced that "It's Miller Time and You Only Go Around Once in Life." than you are much less likely to protest the chains capitalism requires that we wear everyday at the capitalist's workplace.

    • @johnnysoccer1983
      @johnnysoccer1983 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Except.... he's not teaching them, he's deceiving them. It's because of Capitalism and businesses not doing the right thing that forced the governments hand in creating regulations. It came full circle, but he only wants people to focus on the government. Why? Because all he truly cares about is making more money himself. He cares about HIS profits. If he actually cared about the people, he'd pay employees more and take less money himself. If he can make millions himself, then there's no reason he can't pay employees more, which in turn gives them more money to spend on items, which helps the economy, which makes business owners more money, and it cycles around. But the rich of this era make excuses for why they make billions and their employees can barely make ends meet on minimum wage. It's a con job, and it's easy to fall for if you can't see through the deceit.

    • @inthemaking9714
      @inthemaking9714 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Lol I guess you missed the part on tax rates impeding business growth…. You must of also missed the part of productivity per unit of labor…. Of course he’s worried about making more money himself. He mentioned that. He employs many people (of whom you do not even know what they’re getting paid). Would you rather have a few people make more? Or pay many more people the wage rate per unit of time that competition allows in a capitalist society? There are plenty of reasons why he can’t pay employees more, he just listed them out in the video? Also, minimum wage does not equal livable wage… minimum wage is exactly what it says… the minimum in which an employer can pay. Typically these are low skilled jobs. You build skill and acquire knowledge that you learned by entering the labor force presumably at minimum wage then you take what you learned and you advance your career. Poverty is not stagnant. It does not consist of the same people. People move in and out of wage brackets all the time. I’m making a hell lot more money now than I made when I was 21… do you see what I’m saying? I don’t want to be rude, but you’re really clueless on economics of a capitalist society.

    • @johnnysoccer1983
      @johnnysoccer1983 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@inthemaking9714 Claiming tax rates impede business growth is a bullshit argument and not actually reality. They claim it's true, but it really isn't. If the business itself and the people at the top are making millions/billions, then it's just not reality. The 50s that he loves to talk about as the golden era of Capitalism had MUCH higher tax brackets than today, and that didn't impede any growth. The minimum wage back then was higher than todays minimum wage when you adjust for inflation as well. Minimum wage back when it was introduced WAS a liveable wage. It's only in recent times that it became so low compared to the costs of living that it was no longer a liveable wage. I believe it was around the 80s where minimum wage adjusted for inflation to today was around $14. So.... what happened? It wasn't taxes, because taxes dropped. It can't be regulations because businesses continued to make more and more profit. So, what was it? The simple answer, it was greed. Companies realised they could cheat the system under Capitalism and they could massively increase the costs of their services, without increasing wages, to maximize their profits. They realised they could monopolise their areas of business at the expense of everyone to increase the wealth of those at the top. Regulations keep being added because businesses are NOT doing right by their workers. Businesses have FORCED the governments hand in adding regulations. Back in the day, they didn't need so many regulations because businesses weren't taking advantage of everyone else for their own profit AS BADLY as they are today. It's BECAUSE of Capitalism that life is so expensive compared to wages in this era. Capitalism unchecked leads to greater and greater wealth gaps and more and more people in poverty.
      Oh, and by the way, there are most definitely areas where the same people stay in poverty and can't get out of it. There are whole communities that have to live like that. There are many reasons as to why it's happened but that was a foolish comment. Sure, there are some that move in and out of poverty, but there are still a lot that stay in poverty and no amount of trying to move up the ladder works for them. Just because YOUR situation isn't like that, doesn't mean it's not like that for others. That is a concept that both you and Peter fail to comprehend.

Lets just look at in state to be fair $17,000, in Mexico the top public university charges about $1,000 dollars a year, people in Virginia make way more money, but not 17 times more, much less 50 times on all other states!! And thats the top school, some public schools charge $300 dollars and $500 dollars a year, yes they make less but not that much less, a country like mines, Mexico should not offer such cheaper education and opportunities than this great country, its still worse in sooo many corruption issues than the US Ik Im not saying Mexico is superior. Im saying America is just never gonna be truly great with tuition rates that high, they need to be wayyyyy lower, the man is right it should be considered a national embarrassment that students have to pay so much more education in the country of opportunity.

Then you save even more, and decide on a practical degree that will actually push you forward on life, and not just an excuse to party for 4 year. You pay for it with the money you saved working hard, and with the new money you will make with the even better job you get with you're degree. It's called responsibility.

      But, CEOs don't add 300x the value of their average employee, yet they make 300x the wage of their average employee. Think about what really makes sense; the people controlling the wages are greedy and overpaying themselves. Starting a business shouldn't mean that you're so much better off than the people that allow your business to function, the labor, that you obtain so much more than them. There are literally people working their asses off that can barely take care of their families while their boss has so much expendable income they can buy literal islands. That's a huge disparity that you may be able to rationalize, but not justify.

      @@robertdouth8979 It can actually.
      That's a stupid piece of literature that is quoted entirely too much by people who have no clue what confirmation bias is.
      People can change their minds but it's necessary for THEM to change it. If what you say is the truth it will prevail. Never entirely there will always be THAT guy, but for the most part.
      What you can do is try to close the gaps in understanding. If you think the only reason they think this is because they are stupid, that isn't different from the stance of rain and volcanoes are magic.
      No, rather you don't understand them.
      When debating we are colored by our experiences and former knowledge. That doesn't change regardless of your education level. That is why crowd sourcing is powerful. That is why cross discipline science is basically the gold standard. There are subtle nuances about topic like construction even that an architect wouldn't know unless they talked to a builder.
      Unless you sit down and hash out the entire topic you wouldn't understand completely. If you did they would be on your side.
      For instance telling someone that the bend in the plumbing is important will elicit many poor responses from folks who don't understand. Telling someone that the bend in the plumbing keeps things from smelling makes them confused not curious. Telling someone that the bend in the plumbing actually keeps water in it because of how it's shaped and gas doesn't pass water well. That is more concise and more easily understood. From that stepping off point you can use that to further explain numerous points like air in pipes and water hammer and much more.
      Even if they don't sit through he whole thing, helping to deepen the understanding of both you and them is better long term. They will have a slightly deeper understanding next time and you will be better at understanding them. This isn't a situation that if you can't convince them now all hope is lost. Plant the seeds if your tree is healthy it will grow.

I have a full time job and I was running a small business before C-19 shut me down and I never recovered. I must say I do agree with your most of your points. When I was in full swing, I always had to pay the sub retails and the labor and I got what was left over. I wasn't making very much net profit but I only had my business a couple of years. I was building momentum. I think the biggest problem would letting owners of all businesses who are greedy and don't have integrity take advance of the work force if we didn't have some kind of regulations in place.

Also whoever talked about the man's education being wasted, fuck right off because first off that man's education was likely worse off simply because of his zip code which is bullshit.
      If a person can read, converse, and do basic math the education did their bare minimum of a fucking job. If our education was even half decent all of these "liberals" you're so quick to mock would actually have an understanding of economics, taxes, business, and how the Fed sucks ass.

Yes the battery isn't quite there yet butt with capitalism we have people working on Solid State & Graphine battery's & dare I say perpetual electricity machine by Newman. Solar Panels like Solar City that Elon funded for his brothers or cousins & it's the largest solar panel company in the USA & employs people I know massive amounts of cash compared to McDonald and its easy to get in. I know people that work for that company that are just regular dudes like me & Solar City flys them all over the USA to work & pays for it. Puts them in hotels and pays for it. & they offer good benefits. Peter Pan & Grey Hound is easy to get into USA wide & they have great pay, free bus tickets anywhere in the USA, 401 K & I think they match it or contribute something to it. Health care.... I'm broke & currently unemployed due to Corona Virus & family issues but once everything clears up I'm back to work & I don't blame the rich per say. It's cronyism. It's the FED, It's Wall Street not oh well your a real estate agent that sells houses & makes money but you owe me because I'm broke? No that makes no sense. Blame the right person. You wanna be rich too just like me people. There is someone to blame though. Like the politics, government, FED. Get back on (maybe) or at least let the dollar compete with gold and silver. Geesh look at whats Palladium has done over the last 5 years. When I was buying Silver and small small small pieces of gold years ago. Palladium was approx $800 an Troy Ounce. Now its something ASTRONOMICAL. Imagine if it where to compete. Look at Bitcoin. I'm extremely depressed no kidding because when I bought Bitcoin when I got into Bullion no one knew about it. There was only a snippet video of it at the very end of a financial documentary year ago and it was $12. By the time I bought it though it was like $25-$27 and I had 15 20 bitcoins at any given time. I've probably totally brought like 50 but never had that many at one time because I would play casino games with them online. Bitcoins went up to $20,000 at some point & now hover at I think $8,000-$10,000. So imagine if I saved all my bitcoins and sold out when they got to $10,000-$20,000. That's what capital society does. It put the control of the money/investment into the hands of the free market and it adjusted & you can only print so many Bitcoins. They can't just print more like the FED......

      And these broke people complaining about being broke, and they fight for more social programs and welfare to help the poor and illegal immigrants. Do you see how that doesnt make sense? The programs they fight for costs more taxes. Lmao
      Leftists have the same desires as Republicans, but they're so narrow minded and uneducated that they feel pressured to be Democrats because Democrats are inherently the good guys.
