Why is capitalism going downhill since 1970?
>>
>>139999412
Because we've been fed this false belief that our economy kept being a free market, capitalist economy while it was actually distorted into some bastardized version of its former self through the corruption of the elites and politicians they purchase. If you think what we have had since the 1970's is real capitalism, where large corporations are heavily subsidized by the government they put in place, where the small businessman and woman is crushed under the weight of rules and regulations put in place by the elites to keep them at the ultimate top of this corrupt market, where your tax dollars go to pay for the employees of these heavily subsidized and protected companies to live, then you are mistaken. This isn't capitalism, this is a disaster concocted by the elites and rich to keep themselves at the top while the rest of us toil away under the false guise that hard work will make us free.

Hard work will never keep us free when the government and it's rulers keep us from realizing our true potential.

Dude, the US went bankrupt in 1971. The dollar devaluated 80%. It crashed. A decade of hyperinflation without growth started... until the elites finally got an idea - go back to the good old times of slavery and no worker wage rises and high unemployment.

But something had to happen in 1980 for this all to work out. What happened in 1980 and continued to 1991?

State control capitalism (fascism) creates monopolies where smaller businesses cannot compete. International corporations are the logical extensions and use their monopolistic advantage to create and control the economies of other nations by manipulating commodities prices.
My use of fascism in economic is technical and not meant to refer to larpers and whitenats walking around with tikki torches.
Fascism is on the left spectrum and is the progeny of communism after it failed. The resulting ideology was fascism and was first practices by Mussolini, a life long socialist.

I hate you progressives, you tax the shit out of poor people and make it impossible for them to truly tap into capital gains which is the primary source of income growth for the highest quintiles. Look up "accredited investor", a person who makes less than $200,000 per year can't even invest in high-risk ventures due to SEC regulations.

http://www.investopedia.com/terms/a/accreditedinvestor.asp

>To be an accredited investor, a person must demonstrate an annual income of $200,000, or $300,000 for joint income, for the last two years with expectation of earning the same or higher income. An individual must have earned income above the thresholds either alone or with a spouse over the last three years. The income test cannot be satisfied by showing one year of an individual's income and the next two years of joint income with a spouse. The exception to this rule is when a person is married within the period of conducting a test. A person is also considered an accredited investor if he has a net worth exceeding $1 million, either individually or jointly with his spouse. The SEC also considers a person to be an accredited investor if he is a general partner, executive officer, director or a related combination thereof for the issuer of unregistered securities.

It's not much more of a step to say that EVERY system will fail eventually because we will go extinct.

The reason I support the FASTEST growing economy is because we need money to finance tech, which is the only possible way we can prevent or even prolong the existence of our species. What separates us from other animals--and what separates life from empty space and gas clouds--is complexity. I say, we should go as complex as it gets and hope for the best

That's the honest truth. See the graph I posted, the graph you posted compares "productivity" (which is adjusted with IPD and includes self-employed worker's productivity) and "wages" (which is adjusted with CPI and DOES NOT include self-employed worker's pay). Literally apples to oranges, and when you correct for those intentional data manipulations, you end up with them matching within 4% of each other to this day.

Women entering the work force doubled the supply of workers, meaning that workers have to compete for jobs instead of companies competing for workers.

Pretty good point.

Also, women don’t negotiate for a higher salary thus suppressing the entire salaries of the workforce.

Implying productivity can be measured, maybe people can just get more done in less time due to technological advancement.

>>139999412
I don't know it's almost like half the population, (woman) sparked by feminism, joined the labor force. Of course when you so much labor in you can now afford to keep wages down since the supply of workers is so high

If I was a politician I would have this plan
Social Security
>privatize social security
>everyone is required to invest 15% of their money, however, these investments can be passed on after death. The government doesn't not keep the money.
>these investments can be accessed completely tax free after age 65, or under standard capital gains taxes
>those currently taking benefits will continue to get them

Income Taxes
>anyone making less than $50,000 no longer has to pay income tax
>loss in revenue matched by increase on taxes for those who make $200,000 or more

Capital Gains
>capital gains also is not taxed under $50,000
>loss in revenue is matched by increase on taxes for those who get $200,000 or more in capital gains every year
>abolish SEC accredited investor regulation

Profit sharing / Corporate Tax Rate
>corporate tax rate cut to 0% for companies that distribute 10% of profits to employees who make less than $50,000
>for instance, if there is profit of $200,000 this profit should be distributed between enough sub $50,000 employees such that it's used up
>corporate tax rate cut to 15% otherwise

>minimum wage is abolished

Non-citizen tax
>all non-citizens pay at minimum a 15% tax on all income

Wanting subhumans to be imported to do the jobs cheaper and with less arguments than the native? Yeah, sound like social....Oh no that's right, that's a capitalist approach to economics: the best profit value per action, whatever the cost to anyone else.

>if a kike-funded "think tank" presents data, that data is just hearsay

They claim the previous methodology is false and provide evidence why, and you believe them. I do the exact same to their methodology and you dismiss it and laugh at me?

>Are you talking about the original graph?

No, I was talking about yours. Simply determining that the wages are matching inflation is irrelevant unless you factor in what those wages are being spent on. So in that sense they're both wrong.

>I don't have the energy to check all these, can you provide a source?

>Anyway seems pretty self-explanatory since cars have gone up so much in use-value.

I'd disagree with that as a whole. In some sense you're right, but the cost of cars should be going down. Plastic replaces most of the metal on the cars since those time period, things are mass-produced in such vast quantities that the average costs of components should be relatively cheaper, even if they've become more sophisticated. The core principles of air conditioners for instance have remained mostly unchanged for decades, so being able to manufacture those efficiently should be the expected outcome, but they're not.

In the 1970's, Trudeau Sr. changed Canada's Central Bank from a government own & ran institution into a rough copy of the Americans "Federal Reserve".. that combined with other policy changes caused the largest inflationary phase in Canadian history.

Money became worth so much less in such a short time that even Labour Unions couldn't keep up with it and the media used their strikes to make public opinion turn on them for being greedy, even though all they were trying to do was keep their wages caught up to the 11~17%/year climb of inflation over a ±3 year period.

On top of this, Canada wasn't the only nation to do this. Multiple "Western countries" pulled off the same changes throughout the 70's.

Not THE capitalist approach. Most market-supporters acknowledge we should internalize externalities like importing shitskins. Anyway importing higher skilled workers would be better for the economy as a whole.

>They claim the previous methodology is false and provide evidence why, and you believe them. I do the exact same to their methodology and you dismiss it and laugh at me?
I laughed at you because you appeared to believe that, because a certain think-tank presents data, that that data is wrong or suspect. You didn't use the exact same methodology. Do you understand what the CPI and IPD deflators are and how they are used? You have to compare apples to apples, which the original graph does not do. If you're going to adjust one line with CPI, then adjust the other line with CPI as well. That's what I recommended to you. The original graph doesn't do this

>No, I was talking about yours. Simply determining that the wages are matching inflation(?) is irrelevant unless you factor in what those wages are being spent on. So in that sense they're both wrong.
Wages match not only inflation, but also follow productivity increases. The CPI basket is hardly representative of even a majority of economic output, and would be inappropriate for measuring the ENTIRE economy. Anyway there's free choice in what you spend it on.

>I'd disagree with that as a whole
well our opinions are great but why don't you try to find out exactly how much it costs to make a car nowadays vs yesteryear, and compare that cost to income also.

It's not. The owners of capital taking all the profits and leaving their workers with squat is exactly how it's supposed to work. It wasn't working before 1970 due to FDR's socialistic New Deal legislation.

The New Deal was an abject failure. Things like the AAA are indefensible even from a modern Marxist perspective

I'm pro-markets, but I have recived no indication that (virtually)anyone in the top positions of economic influence would trade morals for profits. And in the end, the amoral individual will always end up winning out over the moral one in economic situations, eventually. Such is the nature of profits.

>I laughed at you because you appeared to believe that, because a certain think-tank presents data, that that data is wrong or suspect. You didn't use the exact same methodology.

If you're going to adjust one line with CPI, then adjust the other line with CPI as well. That's what I recommended to you. The original graph doesn't do this

I'm not saying the first graph is better than the second one, quite the opposite. The point I was making was that they're both flawed because they claim to measure the economic prosperity of the average worker relative to productivity, but that is a flawed notion if they don't take into account what that productivity is being used for and what the money that the workers are receiving is being spent on. That is why it is flawed.

>Wages match not only inflation, but also follow productivity increases. The CPI basket is hardly representative of even a majority of economic output, and would be inappropriate for measuring the ENTIRE economy. Anyway there's free choice in what you spend it on.

If you're measuring the productive and compensatory measures of that productiveness for workers in order to asses relative prosperity over a time period, you HAVE to determine if the cost of living goes up or down for the same time period, or your methodology is flawed.

>p2p is capitalist
fucking lol p2p is libertarian socialism you dolt

In p2p systems there are no hierarchies, and instead, all peers are equally privileged and equal participants. p2p systems undo private systems of ownership of intellectual property and productive capital, and place them into the commons without the need for centralized ownership. p2p undoes consumerism by making the consumers their own clients and destroying the client-server model. I mean, fuck, p2p was first popularized by fucking PIRATES which are implicitly anti-capitalist.

lol. Let me tell you a story. The oldest bank in the world (Monte Paschi di Siena) went bankrupt. Now my government is giving back ( with my tax euros) 80% of the money the people lost.
The reason? The fucking retards bought obligation with a 12+% annual yield as a safe investment and the bank "deceived" them (aka aggressive selling tactics vs a 70 y/o senile granny).
So yes, people are retarded and yes, they would be raped by Wall Street sharks and bankster.

>>139999412
Because the investment into increasing the productivity is much higher on the employer end for a while now where we are building incredibly complex machines to increase productivity of someone who is actually working less hard than their predecessors. So if you replotted a function of effort vs. hourly wage, you'd see the true benefit of this technology investment and quit complaining about how much more you make when you look at the bigger scheme of your society. Truth is our society squanders our productivity so we have a reason to be angry still, but this anger is displaced by stupid misleading graphs. Jews and greedy human opportunism are the real problem.
