Not true, find a real problem and create a solution. No one forces a person to work for someone or a company. No one forces someone to buy a product. Only government can force you to so something you dont want to do. They can also force you to buy something you dont want to buy.The only way to get rich is to overcharge your customers and underpay your staff. The billions left over go to a select few.
Stop allowing those who enter this country illegally and end the H1B visa programs, you will see wages go upWalmart staff work close to minimum wages, so the Walton family can earn their billions.
I prefer to deal in kindness rather than money. I volunteer with Street Pastors, everything we do depends on prayer and we have to continually thank God for all the good things that keep happening.You are wrong, your are envious, and you are spreading a lie that traps millions of people into thinking they can never advance in life.
America invaded Iraq illegally according to the United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan. The result was about two - three million Iraqi refugees, they have to go somewhere.Stop allowing those who enter this country illegally and end the H1B visa programs, you will see wages go up
I doubt wages will go up, American companies will still contract out to Asia.Stop allowing those who enter this country illegally and end the H1B visa programs, you will see wages go up
Where will the State get the money?State-funded medical education.
There are a number of ways to help other people that don’t require the sacrifice people make to become doctors. If you want the smart people to become doctors instead going into another profession that requires less time, less sacrifice, less aggravation, less risk, less investment then you need to pay them.People who want to help other people. It’s pretty telling that you think the only reason someone would become a doctor is for money.
That would be ideal, but as long as the majority are Democrats and Republicans, there will never be any respect for the Constitution.I say, let the State provide the things that are mandated in the U.S. Constitution, and let’s continue allowing Americans to be free.
U.S. wages are stagnant or down over the past 40 years. Expenses like insurance and tech is up. Markets are unstable, and they can be taken advantage of by those with money, but those same unstable markets keep others from getting anywhere financially.I doubt wages will go up, American companies will still contract out to Asia.
Not to sure whether to laugh or cry over this comment. I believe you’re correct, though. Constitution, schmonstitution, as far as they’re concerned–it’s all about personal power, which is what the Constitution was written to prevent. I think it’s likely that they like the fact that kids aren’t studying the U.S. Constitution in school anymore.That would be ideal, but as long as the majority are Democrats and Republicans, there will never be any respect for the Constitution.
Neither are voters.I think it’s likely that they like the fact that kids aren’t studying the U.S. Constitution in school anymore.
That is not true. In some sense, if you want to live and you want your family to live, you have to have money. In order to have money you have to work |(unless you have an inheritance or are able to siphon off money from government contracts, say as commission or similar). Now you are presented with a list of employers who will take you If you want a job, then you have little choice in most cases except to work for someone who is providing that opportunity for you to work for them.No one forces a person to work for someone or a company.
No it doesn’t. A laborer owns his labor and chooses to enter into a voluntary contract for a set salary or wage. If the laborer thinks his labor is worth more than the employer is willing to pay, they can take their labor elsewhere. Exploitation occurs when there is no voluntary exchange.“Controlling the cost of production” = exploiting labor. It’s why worker productivity has skyrocketed since the early '70s but wages haven’t.
Again, Walmart pays its employees at roughly the 75th percentile of their industry. They are actually paying more on average than the market prices labor for that skillset. If you have an issue with the fair market value of entry level labor, then develop additional skills or go to the next company that pays better. Again, voluntary exchange here.Walmart does it by paying employees so little that billions in government assistance goes to Walmart employees every year.
Do you have any statistics to back this up? Sounds to me like unproven assertion rather than fact. By the way, I have worked in warehouses. Kinda familiar with the Amazon model of order fulfillment.Amazon did it by grinding down human bodies in their warehouses.
Stupidest quote of the day. In the marketplace there are two goods, capital and labor. When I seek employment with a company whether it be as an entry level laborer, or a doctor, I am offering to provide my labor in exchange for goods or money with which I can buy goods. This has literally always been the case. It isn’t dehumanizing to sell my labor as a valuable commodity. My time has value, and I am happy to provide it in exchange for goods and services that I equally value. Also, Eugene V. Debs was a communist who would say that I have no right to determine the value of my own labor, so essentially he was into slavery."The most barbarous fact in all christendom is the labor market. The mere term sufficiently expresses the animalism of commercial civilization.
No, that is exactly what communists believe as is evidenced by the Gulag systems, Progroms, and Maoist leaps that resulted in the deaths of millions. Capitalists believe that both labor and management make free will transactions with one another and are free to accept or reject the offer of the other side. That’s called liberty, which Debs rejected.Like Debs said, the capitalist sees human beings just like products on a shelf, to be used and discarded.
This is absolutely true. Especially living below your means. Just because you make it doesn’t mean it all needs to get spent. But too many people do not know how to live below their means. They don’t save or they start too late. They justify their spending and have nothing to retire on.Hard work, living below your means, saving regularly, and persistence is surely a good method to grow rich slowly.
No it isn’t. Investing is the process of providing capital so that people’s labor can be put to useful work. In return the investor gains a dividend of the profits generated by the combination of capital and labor, both of which are required to provide goods and services that the public buys. Otherwise, the labor just sits idle, as does the capital. And oh by the way, laborers can participate in this process through stock grants, purchase of mutual funds which tend to be reasonably priced, purchase of stocks, company provided stock purchase options , 401K contributions, etc., that many companies not only provide, but voluntarily contribute to as part of benefit compensation packages.What do you think investing is? It’s just amassing wealth produced by other people’s labor.
I’d laugh at the joke–but it’s not a joke, I know.Neither are voters.
They could very well make shows like that, and people won’t watch them. Most people want to be entertained when they watch tv. People that are interested in black history, Constitution history and anything else like that will search for documentaries or look on the internet.I frankly wish that instead of showing so many junky CSI shows and probably ANOTHER season of SVU (in which the detectives get to spend ALL their time on ONE rape case–definitely not real life!), and yet ANOTHER “talent” show with judges and buzzers and a million dollar prize going to someone that we will never see or hear again–why can’t we get all the television networks to agree to air at least one hour per day, preferably at varied times so that all people working all hours can see some of it–of educational programming of black history and U.S. Constitution history?
