State of The Union February 2024

This isn’t true. I’m an employer and I care about my workers quite a bit. I would fight automation and AI tooth and nail to keep them working, or work myself to figure out how to make it a tool for them vs competition to them.

You’re describing investors, which ironically is what you expect to be, and the most cutthroat companies are typically run by a board detached from the employees in a diluted ownership scenario. And you actually don’t even want to be an investor. You just want to be a piece of shit entitled to somebody else’s fruits of labor. You’re the embodiment of greed.

You keep talking out of your ass and never fully explain how everyone is going to be Bill Gates by simply waking up in the morning.

Do you understand what speculation in this context means?

This is also something they teach in that there higher education you mentioned…

Ok.

I don’t expect you to understand what that actually means, but if I was doing large diameter pipe, I’d damn sure love to have the automated system.

WTF, are you talking about?

I said, for the most part. So not everyone. But certainly the majority. Kudos to you for actually having a connection to your workers.

Obviously not in your definition.

The utopian question

Dummkopf

Read the post again dumbfuck! No I didn’t write a dissertation but I gave some ideas that are better than what we currently live with.

Which still requires a human to operate it. What happens when that is no longer a factor?

I’m not going to walk through a progression of deconstructive what ifs and what abouts with you.

You don’t have any technical knowledge of any real subject, so continuing is useless. Work is abstract to you, or more accurately- imaginary. And you don’t even like it anyways.

What I don’t like is being taken advantage of. Big difference.

So trading does not constitute technical knowledge?

Nice deflection.

Spouting your socialist and communist talking points is not answering the question

assclown

I was asked how my ideas would make it better. I gave 2 examples. Question addressed. D-bag!

No, the definition.

Then enlighten the readers and explain it.

No, not in any real way.

Its not a deflection. Its what you do. The deconstructionist lives life in the cheap seats talking shit and boo-ing at people who actually do things.

This is very basic information you should already know if you’re going to discuss economic change, especially if you’re going to throw around “higher education” as a badge of authenticity for your opinions.

So far you have yelled about “the system” and then asked for literally everything that already exists….with the caveat that it should be given to you instead of earning it for yourself, and you can’t explain how it makes sense or even what a plan would look like for that scenario to play out. Just that the Castoli’s of the world should take ownership with controlling interest of the companies who hire them. And they should do it on unregulated loans. What could go wrong??

You’re complaining about not having what you want and you’re also trying to position “the system” as the reason why instead of going out and getting it done, just like I assumed in my first post.

You can literally do all the big time revolutionary things you mentioned like right now. “Do” is the clincher. Maybe start with understanding the most principle tenets of investment & ownership, and why they exist. Nobody owes you. Go get it.

Yes you do, it’s called life and what you need to exist. Reality, in short, is your boss. You are also at the mercy of forces beyond your control. A carpenter, for example, has more control over his destiny than you do. If he wants to make more money he doesn’t have to hope that the market does something which will benefit him, he can work more hours, take on more jobs, work weekends, whatever. His earnings are a result of his productivity and he has more control of how productive he can be than you. You can put as much time as you want into your job but there is no guarantee that the extra time will result in more money.

The problem for you isn’t whether or not this dream world would be good or bad, but that you would need to get a job. That’s the irony. You brag about working whenever you want and not having a boss but that wouldn’t be an option in your ideal world. This world you hate provides you the ability to make ends meet on your terms.
