no, women had to start working because of 2nd wave feminist programming and an increase in sick consumerism for needless stuff and a decrease in traditional values. their presence in the workforce diminished the quality and reliability of workers and number of positions. companies never gave a shit about workers.

>whats better than capitalism

A capitalist/socialist combo used by all western nations including the states.

Enough capitalism ti incentivise innovation, hard work, education and achievement, enough socialism to pump money back into the system in the form of jobs, social safety nets and wealth redistribution so the elite doesn't wind up taking all the money leaving nothing left for the poor whether they want to work hard or not...

The police, and fire departments are socialism. City maintenance roads and infrastructure are socialism. Employment insurance is socialism. Government grants for education or business startups are socialism.

A few policies you simply dont agree with whether theyre actually good or not doesnt paint the whole system bad.

Ill tell you whats exactly as bad as pure socialism. Pure capitalism.

They are if the only jobs they can get pay 2 dollars an hour while the ceo makes millions.

Thats why we have minimum wages. Without them thats exactly what would happen.

Taking money from people doesnt only mean literally going in their house and emptying their safe. You can take money from them simply by denying them access to something they should have the right to in the first place

Born in 71 here. We were the first generation fucked over by the boomers.

But to be fair, there have been far, far-right "foundations" funneling money into politics, universities, and media since the early 80s to finally manifest itself as the young nu/pol/ fags who are only too eager to do their bidding.

True definition of socialism is means of production and economy should be owned by the community as a whole. (Guess what. Every time right wingers who hate socialism yell about how they do and do not want their tax dollars spent, they are being socialists.)

State and federal governments of our western countries does so by putting tax dollars back into public services. IE using wealth from taxes to provide for the community's use and benefit.

Thats the actual definition.

Too much socialism and you become venezuela. Too little and your entire economic becomes top heavy and collapses. Capitalism depends on the circulation of money goods and services. Without regulation the greedy end up sucking up all the money and the entire system implodes on itself.

Thats why we are a combo in the west.

>fucked over by the boomers

Eh, the boomers definitely fucked up, no doubt about it. But I blame our own generation for plenty of shit too.

The bullshit with women's rights had already begun and that was a slippery slope. Then affirmative action and all the other bullshit.

But it was US who first decided spanking was bad for a kid's self esteem. We invented snowflakes, I'm afraid, and they've created more of them.

But again, I like the "free the nipple" bullshit and that girls are such whores these days. It's the decline of a once great society, but like I said, I don't have kids and will just ride the wave til I'm gone without worrying about it.

>>729999763

Feminism of course. Women suddenly wanted 'Careers' and flooded the market with cheap labor, making men's wages unable to support a family.

>>730008856

Did ya read "2 dollars an hour"? Im not advocating an increase of wage here... So those regular arguments dont even apply... And rhe fact youre regurgitating now shows how much this is flying over your head. Without a minimum wage i guarantee you some employers would pay their workers not even enough to have dinner tonight let alone pay rent and raise kids or go to school to better themselves or start their own businesses. Thats why we have minimum wages.

So in that scenario, why should a group of people get crazy rich by not paying the people who build and run their entire business enough to at least eat?
Thats also wrong.

If i asked you to mow my lawn and said id pay you and you did it and i handed you a quarter and slammed the door in your face, i dont think youd be like "well thats a reasonable and fair transaction for an hour of my time! He has rhe right to pay me anything!! I love our system!"

Youd be downright offended. Youd probably never want to help me again. Now what if most employers treated you that way? Because if your country was pure 100% capitalism, thats exactly what would happen bruh.

>>730009466

I remember when they tore up our street to instal cable line. Then this was the 1st box they gave us for cable. The cord was like 20 feet long, and if you stuck it in the middle position, and push down like channel 18 and 22 at the same time you could get HBO(for free).

>>730004048

We had this. Our cable system had the Weather Channel (i.e. before people and reality weather shows) on Ch. 36.

That's not how capitalism works. A kid who was offered a quarter (offered, because nobody works without talking about pay) would just go next door. If there's demand for the kid's lawn services, a neighbor will offer the more. And if the dickwad wants to get his lawn done, he'll have to pay prevailing rates.

There are some real issues behind the economy, but they're generally tied to shifts in the economy (with more automation there are less good jobs), globalization (complex), educational disparities (people in high-skilled high-demand fields are worth a lot, while people in low-skilled jobs don't provide much value), power disparities (when there's a surfeit of low-skilled workers, the big companies have all the negotiating power), decades of insane overregulation (which always favors special interests with big pockets, i.e. large established companies and the rich), and so on.

I'm with you. I got married when I was 30 to a girl 5 years younger. I had her shaving but up until then, you were taking a serious gamble on what you'd find down there.

I graduated in '84, and it was a couple years after that some of the college girls started shaving or at least cleaning up a bit. But even to this day, if I go out with a girl my own age (which is rare), you don't know if you'll find a beautiful landscaped garden with perfume and flowers or a horrific smelly jungle full of deadly creatures.

most people who are in minimum wage jobs make nowhere near enough to live, most people in hourly positions have had to get more than one job/get assistance. most employers just cut hours so they didn't have to pay for their employees' insurance after the aca...

They started out costing $1100 back then. Then the cost kinda settled down to about $400 before they started bundling contracts with them. By the 90s, you could get one for a penny because the contracts were so damned lucrative.

haha we saw it blow up at school. we didnt know wtf happened. fucking teachers scrambling to turn of the tvs lol then decided to let the whole school have a recess day till school let out also i was in highschool when the branch davidians compound caught on fire. we were watching the live footage in one of my shit class doing nothing so either ppl were talking to each other or watching tv and i noticed the smoke after the tank had pushed a huge hole through the outside wall and i yelled out "OH FUCK THE BUILDINGS ON FIRE" and my teacher looked over and was like OMG and ran out too tell the other teachers. we watched those poor ppl burn
