Two words; Class Mobility. Capitalism has no class mobility. Think about it. We the proletariat are predestined to be who were are before birth just like how the bourgeois are predestined to be the scum they are. For example you look the Bushes, you look at the Rockefeller, the Rothschild's, they were all predestined to be rich. Now you look at guys like me or you. For example my grandfather was a lawyer, my dad is a lawyer, and i was pushed into becoming one since age 3 but it doesn't look i will end up able to be one. In communism since every corporation is run by the state there can be a NO-NEPOTISM law where everything is done meritocratically. Shouldn't we have the best of the best be our CEOs rather than some jerkoff who was born to a rich dad like Billy Madison?

Why don't you just invent something or become a general under capitalism? Could it be you're a alazy deadbeat?

>>132188657
Because you have to be part of the upper class to get into a high up military job. For example google any general and go to wiki and click "childhood". You will find every single one grew up in a "wealthy household" and were sent to some expensive military prep school.

About inventing something that's a literal lol. You can't expect 8 billion people to invent something since we don't all have 150 IQs.

Yeah, rich bloodlines exist but it's not impenetrable. Anyone can be rich if they're lucky or talented enough. I don't think it's unfair to deny a child their birthright because someone simply can't be them. If I become rich then I'd want to pass down my wealth to my children because I love them rather than watching them struggle from rock bottom and struggle to achieve my level of wealth if they do so at all.

So the hundreds of times communism has killed its own people "for the greater good" and violently spread its influence is how you care for the poor? Communism can barely feed the poor because it becomes a bureaucratic hellhole and nothing gets distributed correctly.
>>
>>132188117
>Capitalism has no class mobility
But that's wrong you retard. Class mobility may not be easy but it is certainly possible. The issue with communism is that it relies entirely on an interim step between true communism which is utopian and capitalism but whether or not it is possible to move from the interim step to true communism is debatable. Put simply true communism has never been tried and may not even be possible, every attempt at communism has failed to pass the dictatorship of the proletariat phase.

There's still supply and demand in communism. In fact in capitalism is where demand is skewed because say there is a SUPER high demand for water or food but the people have no money to afford it, the market judges food and water as low demand.

Nepotism has become more prevalent in our society due to the amount of cheap labor shipped in by your commie overlords. We don't have the ability to start from the bottom anymore. Why? We can't live on what they are paying. Immigrants can because they benefit from socialists programs which give them housing and such. The rest of us scratch and claw for what we have and naturally our parents want to help. Thus the rise of nepotism.

Those aren't the same thing
A contract worker owns the means of production
A guy making 3d printed parts own the means of production
A guy putting on a local festival owns the means of production.

The elite DO NOT own the means of production.

They invest.

They loan money to others, who make money, and pay them more.
This is even how stocks work, even though stocks are a form of ownership. You buy 100 in stocks, the company does well and your 100 is worth 200.

Yes, but none of them were asigned because of their personal skill or education or achievements and weren't removed once a better candidate showed up. I am refering to USSR. Every single one of the leaders were well established party members, most of them came to power by eliminating their opponnents after previous leader has died, if I recall it right. If you consider political success as a merit in itself, even in cases, when one rounds up his enemies and shoot them, I can't argue with you on this topic.

tl;dr party system pushes forward amoral subhumans, just like in gags or syndicates, while refraining intelectuals and true communism theoricians.

A lot of those were established directly by the Soviet Union, so it's not surprising that they resemble the Soviet model.

So get a degree in financing. Work as a teller while you're in college and trade penny stocks to build a portfolio. Once you graduate you can get an entry level position at a bank, probably as a loan officer while building your portfolio with more funds. Then you can move in to investments. That's not hard to figure out you just sound fucking lazy. You don't want to put in the work to get to the top. You think you should start there. Thus you believe the great lie that communism will put you there.

I think you could do it if you'd quit admitting defeat before you've even started. It's never too late to turn your life around.

You have never had a job dont you? Even less a business I bet, but no, when people seek work in my business I do not "exploit" them, in capitalism if you dont like your job you just quit, in commie lands either you work by force in what was assigned to you or you go to the gulag, this doesnt happen in here

Start your own business
No one gets there, even those with tons of inheritance, without work.
You think the rothchilds are gonna just turn over everything they control to the next in line because of blood? No, they spend their entire lives being carefully groomed and educated to do precisely that.
You get to be a tycoon by finding a market you are extremely good at, and providing a service better than others.
That's why real estate is the shit. You start low, and make money through savy buying and selling, and then by the time you're in your 50s, you're a tycoon

First: It's spelt "bourgeoisie."
Secondly, the bourgeoisie is the affluent middle class- not people that "city around on golf courses all day smoking cigars, playing cards and being rich assholes." The middle class are the people who work -for- those people. They're the managers, the clerks, the secretaries and supervisors that make those businesses run. And becoming one of those people is very simple in a capitalist society. All you have to do is equip yourself with skills that are useful to the rich assholes, and then make yourself seem better than the other guy that's applying for the same position you are.

Read. Work out. Pay attention in your course of study. Make that course a worthwhile one. STEM or economics, with law and medicine being second-tier choices. Something that you can convert into a salary.

Alternately, if college isn't for you, that's fine, go to a trade school. Be a welder, collect certifications. Get certified to operate heavy machinery. Become a plumber. All you have to do is not be dumb labor.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mr-aEtJVVdk Charlotte Thomson Iserbyt served as the head of policy at the Department of Education during the first administration of Ronald Reagan. Exclusive interview with Iserbyt breaks down how conditioning/training under a corporate agenda has replaced traditional education, leading to a deliberate dumbing down of Americans. Iserbyt further explains how Reagan signed agreements merging the U.S. and Soviet systems under the United Nations banner, turning over education and many other areas of public policy to global control.

Capitalism is the economic system that defines class mobility through your own hard work. Marxist-based economies don't allow for any mobility at all unless you prove valuable to the party. Meritism is also promoted far more via the free-market than a bureaucrat filling a quota. Most of the silver spoons manage to keep or increase worth, proving they are worthy. Those who aren't worthy of their position usually lose all their money. Fuck off.

>>132191211

If you concede that not everyone is equal, but want to destroy hierarchies that are the natural result of these inequalities and reduce all people to the same living standards (which is the goal of communism, any communist "intellectual" will tell you as much), aren't you basically just being evil and destructive? Communists typically say there are no meaningful biological differences between people so all differences come from pre-existing power structures and socialization, therefore communism levels the playing field. But what you're saying is some people are geniuses and some people are dumbasses, but you want to destroy the value structure that makes geniuses more important than dumbasses by putting both of them to work in a factory for a pittance and having them live in collectivized housing?

Nah man.
Most people who get rich don't start making money until they're twice your age.
High school is less important than ever.
Here's a straight forward path if you have the drive for it
Learn coding. You can do it on your own, no school.
Use your coding skills to create software that fills a market gap.
Form a company foe the purpose of selling and further development of the software.
Become a millionaire by the time you're 35
Spend the next decade using you millions to invest in other business
Turn a million into hundreds of millions.

Software development is hands down the best way to get rich without an education.

"Perhaps you will point to the Paris Commune; but apart from the fact that this was merely the rising of a town under exceptional conditions, the majority of the Commune was in no sense socialist, nor could it be. With a small amount of sound common sense, however, they could have reached a compromise with Versailles useful to the whole mass of the people -- the only thing that could be reached at the time."

Don't you DARE abuse the word "meritocracy," you fucking communist piece of crap! Firstly, the words "Class Mobility" that you used there should actually be written as "class immobility," which is the problem you're actually complaining about. Secondly, "class immobility" is precisely WHY communism fails on its face! As a communist, you allow everything to be taken from you in exchange for the promise of equality, and everyone becomes poor. Because there can be no private ownership in a "true" communism, YOU WILL ALWAYS BE POOR IN A COMMUNISTIC SOCIETY! Au contraire, in capitalism, you at least have some class mobility outside what you inherit, which is precisely how the Bush family, the Rockerfellers and Rothschilds became wealthy in the first place. Are you fucking retarded? Of course you are, that's why you're a communist instead of a meritocrat, and why you couldn't even understand this basic truth in the first place!

You start by becoming a realtor. It allows you to learn the ropes about property values, buying and selling, etc, while working for a company before you strike out on your own, with hard saved money, and start buying properties. After awhile of buying, and renovating properties, you'll understand enough to start getting contracts for real estate bids, the big money, and use that to create your own properties, a la trump.
Small business loans are fairly easy for anyone with steady revenue in 6 figures for 5 years, and they start at 1 million, so it's pretty easy to expand after you do real estate on your own for a bit.

Capitalism is the evolution of the mercantile class. If you can contribute something of worth to society you make more money and move up. If you do nothing but unskilled work, or no work at all, you stay where you are. Simple, easy, best economic system tried. Just keep a mindful eye on cronyism/corruption (which happens in every system) and keep consumerism in check and you're good to go.

Also, older people learn languages all the time. I'm learning Japanese while improving my French, and I'm twice your age.

1). Communism isn't the way to increase class mobility (you can't be class mobile if everyone is the same class) 2). Who cares? Your life is substantially better due to capitalism. It's lifted our species out of poverty and given us levels of prosperity never seen before in human history. Even a person who "barely gets by" lives better than the kings and queens of medieval Europe (indoor plumbing, easy heating, cheap clothing, cell phones, television). So what if the people on the bottom have trouble moving higher? Only so many people can be on the top. What matters is that the people who get to the top get there because they innovate and make people's lives better (Bill Gates) or lend others money to innovate and make people's lives better (Rockefellers and Warren Buffett).

It isn't your so-called "facts" (see: misinformed opinons) that offend me, but the mere matter of your mentally-deranged existence. You nihilistic vampires have spent so long living in society that you've forgotten what it means to work intelligently as well as hard, as opposed to merely performing "fruitless labor" for other people with more money than you. That's what it means to be a meritocrat: To strike out on your own and prove yourself, thereby elevating yourself as a person, as well as financially.

You can burn up in the sunlight and fuck right off to the afterlife for all I care, Dracula. The day will soon come when incompetent fools like you that continually try to defy the natural order will once again succumb to it, and furthermore, it will be your own doing.

Actually, a lot of those regimes increased living conditions greatly. For example, Albania was a war-ravaged peasant society stuck in literal feudalism and tribal warfare in 1945. Within a matter of years, illiteracy was virtually eradicated, railroads, bridges, and roads were built, education and healthcare became widespread, heavy industry developed for the first time, the country became largely self-sufficient, and life expectancy increased by decades. It was still one of the poorest countries in Europe, but had developed by leaps and bounds since 1945. The real disaster for Albania came in the 1990s, when communism collapsed and the new capitalist order was unable to effectively govern. The country gained its current notoriety for corruption at this time, and billions of dollars were lost in pyramid schemes, leading to a literal civil war in 1997.

Udemy is a fantastic resource, with both free and paid online courses. I personally suggest starting with c# or possibly even JavaScript, but only after learning about programming logic flows. Youtube also has some great videos.
If you have above a 2.0 gpa, you can also take some basic classes at a local community college.

Then are you a real communist? Communism has only a single class in the ideal set (you may prefer to be in government under Stalinism). You desire power and to have higher social status... Well, look into ways to increase such (not simple). Much of it is mindset. Some, I would think, is career. I messed up a bit in college and don't make as much bank as I would like, but I am climbing the tech ladder. Still considered a proletariat, but I am happy where I am (good job, cute girl, about to buy my first house)... On a decent road. I don't live like a king, but I will work my way up so I can give my offspring more.

For what reason do you desire the power and social status? What are the roots of it?

>Doesn't know how economics work
Probably should've payed more attention in your Econ class, maybe you wouldn't have bought into a failure of a socio-economic-political school of thought. There are millions of cases of poor and middle class peoples rising in status. My high school sweetheart's father was born to a lower-middle class family that had just came to America running from the Italian mafia. They didn't have much money, but he put *himself* through college busting his ass studying and working, then got a job with AT&T and worked himself into a regional project manager position. In just 10 years, ages 18-28, he went from a poor man to a man making 6 figures, shooting him into the upper class bracket. Capitalism affords THE MOST opportunity for advancement of any model. You just have to not be a worthless piece of shit.

FYI just by living in America, YOU ARE IN THE TOP 1% OF THE WORLD. Our homeless live wealthier lives than most of the world's population. No better model than capitalism.

No, capitalist is a person who takes their money (capitol) and injects it into the economy via investments. Sometimes this is ownership of the means of production, sometimes it is ownership of property, sometimes it's not ownership at all, such as bank loans.
A records clerk that buys penny stocks is as much a capitalist as a retiree that does angel investing.

Kek OP i had some pretty decent chuckles going through this thread but I'll post some interesting info in case someone in this thread takes communism seriously.

One interesting example of how central planing of production can result in absolute disaster is the story of Trofim Lysenko, a Soviet agrobiologist that earned Stalin's admiration by using the tried and tested method of vernalization to increase crop yields. The problem is that Trofim also believed in Lamarckian inheritance (the belief that traits acquired by organisms during their life cant be passed on to their offspring) which is a false hypothesis and implementing it proved disastrous for Soviet. Disagreeing with Trofim's ideas was outlawed in the USSR in 1948. (because they were believed to be in line with communist ideals and a glorious counter for Mendelian genetics) which meant that no advances could be made in biology for 17 years until everyone realized that his ideas were shitty and that their crop yields didn't improve a bit by following them.

No sources are needed because googling Trofim Lysenko will yield a lot of data since this story is pretty popular.

>>132189995
High supply induces lower prices. This lowers the value necessary to purchase essentials.

Alternatively, excess supply lowers prices beyond the point of profitability.

The vast majority of jobs are already not production-oriented. The majority of jobs in the US are "service jobs" ie jobs that interface with other humans, rather than jobs for menial labor.

You don't need formal education on econ. Pick up a decent book. Look at multiple views... The Chicago School and other saltwater schools.

And If you are looking at programming, I suggest learning a bit discrete & comhistorical mathematics... specifically the logic portion of such...

That stuff also helps with understanding how laws are written...

I think our high school courses should be re-vamped... different maths taught... coding... languages... logic...

Ways to prepare you for life... instead of just more school that may lead to crippling debt (go for STEM to have a job to pay off debt).

I study economics in college and read every economics book I can get my hands on. Marx has useful insights (i.e. the distinction between labor and capital) but ultimately, his assumptions about human nature are entirely wrong. This is why almost every mainstream economist falls under the "capitalist" label. Even Pickerty is technically a capitalist. Communism is the economic equivalent of creationism

Only if you are going for study in the field of economics. Self-taught is for knowledge only. So you understand the complexity of our economy. If you want to actually work in economics, that will take time and major investment.

If you can do math and logic, coding is an easy mobility method. The world needs coders for software. Detroit is hungry as fuck for coders... Paying like $70K to new graduates. That will knock out debt decently fast.

Are you familiar with the concept of "maxwell's demon" in physics?

Basically it's a magic barrier that only lets hotter particles through, and colder particles reflect.

It would be a violation of the second law of thermodynamics, because that law states "entropy must increase".

In capitalism, we call these "wise investors". They select and support businesses they think will do well. Because they're not perfect, they screw up sometimes.

Those that screw up too often lose money. Their empires collapse, and others take their place.

In capitalism there is a natural equilibrium of rich and poor, which cycles as people fuck up. The restoring force can take a long time, though.

For a system of understanding based on the best way to deal with shortages in resources that are randomly needed at any given time, there is no way to deal with "forever."

Also limits to growth exist. Take Walmart and McDonalds, they experienced very rapid growth i, their early years, but now grow at about the same rate as the US economy. Growth cannot go on forever
>>
>>132196536
So? That's how you get cheaper food. Mcdonalds simply has not reached maximum supply yet. Once the supply meets the demand, it won't be economically feasible to build anymore mcdonalds. Also, you fail to understand that mcdonalds has also helped other restraunts, like chipotle. They invested in a small chain of 14 restraunts, and helped them grow to over 500 sotres

Born and raised in California, Econ 101 was a required class to graduate high school. Why would I want to be a socialist? I benefit the fuck out of capitalism, it's why, even born into a middle-middle class family, I have a $23k car, paid off, $33k in the bank, and a foot in the door to make $80k/yr by the time I reach age 30 (in 7 years), more than my dad makes now at age 54.
You might want to check up on the statistic Vladimir, even the homeless have more net worth than most Afghanis, or Nigerians, or Vietnamese, or Micronesians, or Hondurans, or rural Chinese (you know, the ones that didn't/couldn't betray communism for capitalism.)

You want to live in a communist country, go right on ahead, have fun in the inevitable civil war due to starvation in 5-30 years. If you are someone of power in the party, you're gonna get shot dead; if you're not, you'll be living far worse off the ol' Crazy Joe near Palladium in Los Angeles.

Ironically these companies are becoming less efficient because they lobbied the government to regulate their competition out of existence. This is what happened to the airline industry not that long ago actually.

This happened until finally they started deregulating the airline industry and competition came in and forced change.

To get really high up, you can't be socially awkward... Look at most corporate execs... They have good smiles and know how to talk and interact with people. Upper management is a lot about keeping employees happy and motivated as well as your customers confident.

Unless... you are the inventor of something or start your own company. You can be awkward there... Not in the ladder climb of existing corporations... Unless you are really fucking good at the job of fixing inefficiency.

Also... Look at your other options for improving SMV.

If your desires for communism are rooted in the desire for equal social status, understand that it will always exist... If not financially, it will be looks/physique, social interaction... many things. Work on what you can to improve.

Government subsidies have caused prices for schooling to shoot through the roof. This is because it allows people to spend money they don't actually have and this creates an artificially higher demand for schooling. All that means is that the people wanting to pay out of pocket usually cant afford the prices. Same crap is happening in healthcare in the US. In capitalism businesses are allowed to fail because it forces them to offer a good or service at a reasonable price, or they go out of business due to lack of customers.

Our other commenter is correct that AA sucks.

Coding is decently easy. You can learn a ton of concepts on the internet for free... MIT opencourseware may be of great benefit. They have a plethora of courses. And other anons are correct. Look at community and transfer to a UNI. Good coding and logic will get you somewhere.

Pick up a Raspberry Pi 3 B from Amazon (I suggest a KanaKit for like $70). It is relatively inexpensive compared to other options, but it is meant to teach coding and it can be a very fun project. It is very open source and you can learn a ton. If you feel you like it, pursue programming as a career... Good money.

Now that I think about it, coding and software is actually kind of outside of proletariat vs bourgeoisie... Sort of... In that you don't need major capital investments to do it... You need compilers for major stuff, but it is not like owning a factory.
