@cyclonengineer

The fact you would post something they produce in defense of leftist monetary policy is fucking hilarious.

That’s normal for him. It’s okay because he thinks it supports his point of view. Otherwise, it’s the mainstream media brainwashing you.

@castoli711

True. Bur seeing the way profits have gone up it is a very easy guess.

Bahahaha

[usmccds423]

@castoli711

So the unions destroyed jobs and sent them to foreign countries?

Yes. The UAW is directly responsible for the rise of Toyota and Honda in the United States.

@cyclonengineer

And now you have some Dr from a Pharma company who blames genetics for morbid obesity advising the gov on the new “food pyramid”.

Of course how would the good doctor sell more weight loss drugs? Or have more patients pay to see her for such problems. If it was solved then no one would buy the weight loss drug or pay to come and see her for those issues. So less money for the doctor. Better to make that cheddar than really help people.What a g

reat system we have here. Everything for another dollar. Who cares about peoples health when money is on the line?

@cyclonengineer

I made some protein breakfast bars from a recipe on this very website in less than 10 minutes then just had to wait for the oven to do its job. They taste better and have a ton better caloric/macro profile compare to pop tarts. So ten minutes of work to get something much more nutritious is all it took.

Sounds like a new business venture for you. A good product with convenience.

@cyclonengineer

Junk food is a lazy excuse

Yeah, brought to us by Big Food whose purpose is profit at almost any cost. Helping to destroy the health of humans is NOT a roadblock.

@NickViar

but an increase in money supply will cause a lack of resources and lack of production?

So more money causes a lack of production? How so?

One of the military’s greatest recruiting tool is a free education. Guess who is against student debt forgiveness or free school?

[castoli711]

Union members themselves OR their leaders who are in bed with the business owners? It is extremely hard to believe the rank and file union folks did anything to get rid of their own jobs.

[castoli711]

So why increase production if more profit cannot be made?

[castoli711]

@SkyzykS

Near complete shutdown/collapse of our industrial production base.

All brought about by the capitalists inexorable turn for profit. They helped to destroy many families all so they can make even more for themselves. It is especially questionable when they didn’t NEED to have more.

@castoli711

No one said a profit cannot be made with increase production. My god, man…

The point is that there are many factors that go into profitability. Meaning, increased production and even increased gross sales DOES NOT automatically mean there is more profit.

[SkyzykS]

I can understand where & how your perspective developed now. Not that I agree entirely, but I don’t disagree entirely either.

The same exact people/organizations will be in charge under a single-payer system.

@castoli711

It’s not free.

Isn’t capitalism the reason these jobs existed in the first place?

[castoli711]

@usmccds423

increased productivity.

So you claim increased productivity IS NOT a reason for the widening gap between the have’s and have nots? Then why when wages rose w/ productivity did wages even rise if it wasn’t for greater profits?

@usmccds423

you think every CEO is Jeff Bezos.

So this issue is only applicable to very big business?

@usmccds423

there are CEOs with double mortgages on their homes barely scrapping by to make payroll so their employees don’t starve

Is this the exception or the rule? And which ones are barely scraping by as a sacrifice to their employees? Bwahahaha…

And your biggest issue is that you’ve been indoctrinated through decades of propaganda. But hey, you’re a good little foot soldier for the elite. So pat yourself on the back. You’re under control.

Great American made products that I fully support. Also, this is what American manufacturing costs.

[castoli711]

@usmccds423

The same exact people/organizations will be in charge under a single-payer system.

But will cost roughly half?

@usmccds423

It’s not free.

Far better than taking out the amount of loans that people typically do.

@usmccds423

Isn’t capitalism the reason these jobs existed in the first place?

Would jobs NOT exist w/o capitalism? How many worker owned businesses would decide to give their jobs away to people in other countries?

Greed. Pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered.

Where did I claim this?

@castoli711

Then why when wages rose w/ productivity did wages even rise if it wasn’t for greater profits?

Already addressed.

@castoli711

Not just “very big businesses”, but the absolute largest businesses.

@castoli711

Is this the exception or the rule?

No, it’s not.

@castoli711

And which ones are barely scraping by as a sacrifice to their employees? Bwahahaha…

I am not surprised you have no idea how the average small/medium sized business functions.

@castoli711

And your biggest issue is that you’ve been indoctrinated through decades of propaganda.

Sure thing, Mr. YouTube video.

@castoli711

But hey, you’re a good little foot soldier for the elite. So pat yourself on the back. You’re under control.

Silliness.

[castoli711]

Would most likely cost less if manufactured by a worker-owned business. If the masses were making more money they would be more affordable.

[castoli711]

True, but you’re not even aware of it.

[usmccds423]

@castoli711

But will cost roughly half?

Hilarious.

@castoli711

Far better than taking out the amount of loans that people typically do.

Yes, combat tours are far better than $30k in debt…

@castoli711

Would jobs NOT exist w/o capitalism?

A lot of jobs would not exist without capitalism.

@castoli711

How many worker owned businesses would decide to give their jobs away to people in other countries?

Probably more than you think.

@castoli711

Would most likely cost less if manufactured by a worker-owned business.

I love how you just make things up.
