@Lostcontroller It used to be called "Personnel Department". I don't have the faintest idea why it changed. In the UK, the professional HR body is still called CIPD - Chartered Institute of Personnel Development. I guess "personnel" implies that every employee is an individual...

My bro is an outlier - is smart (has a proper, hard-science degree) and works in HR. His experience of UK is: 1. Businesses often have terrible recruitment processes and systems. 2. Sometimes, it's not the HR/recruitment team failing, but the people doing the actual hiring (managers must interview, otherwise it causes problems down the line...) - he's had managers wait 2-3 weeks to get back to someone to offer an interview, then been all surprised Picachu face when they're "no longer available"... 🤦🏻‍♂️

@samuelmatheson9655 Nah man, more accurate description is "corporations buy corrupt politicians to pass laws favouring them and their evil practices."

@BrutusAlbion Thanks to Brexit, farm labourers are now being offered as much as £30 an hour. "Mass immigration does not suppress wages." My arse! The EU is a Corporatist cartel, intended to keep the poor, poor. Not that they're replacing the EU workers with African migrants, coming by the boat-load...

@shy8054 No problem, I can see the lack of clarity in what I wrote... The definition of "Capitalism" was created by Socialists (may have been Marx, but I don't remember). The point is, that it strongly emphasises all the bad things, without being fair/accurate about all aspects - it was created expressly for the purpose of saying "Capitalism bad, Socialism good." My point is that the Marxist definition of Capitalism does not match the Adam Smith definition of "the free market". What we live under today isn't the free market either - it's a degenerate form (warned about by Smith...) where corporations effectively control the politicians who are supposed to be keeping them in-check.

@shy8054 Free market enterprise != Capitalism (straw-man created by Socialists) Free market enterprise != Corporatism (where corporations buy-off the politicians responsible for ensuring the market remains free)
