  1. i have had family get into this. I keep telling them, if you make money they will kick you off the site. They only want degenerate gamblers who lose everything.

  2. Nope, half or more of your income would go to taxes.

  3. It gives the current employees the notion the company is doing well and expanding and not laying people off.

  4.  @grmpEqweer  imagine all the people that are going to die when we have socialized medicine?? Imagine waiting 12 hours for an ambulance only to have to wait longer in line at an emergency room only to be told euthanasia is your only option. They have caps the doctors can make in some of these countries so the doctors only work 6 months out of the year and take the rest off.

  5. good luck with communism. When investment stops, you have massive starvation.

  6. honestly you can thank the fed for all of it. They allowed interest rates to go to zero for too long. All these businesses took out hundreds of millions of dollars in loans and they reallly have no where to put it.

  7.  @Thezuule1  I know it’s sad, your life becomes a commodity and the government decides if you have worth or not. I would save every dime I could and flee to a free county.

  8. If people can’t make money doing an activity they will stop doing an activity. You will have all these doctors quitting or moving to a free county.

  9. ​ Detrumpificator4377  i guess it would be more akin to socialism at that point because in order to prevent billionares you would have to impose massive taxes on them. The problem is these people would likely move to a capitalist county and they would receive the benefit of their economic development.

  10.  @grmpEqweer  hey, so are you in China or Russia? Asking for a friend.

  11.  @SharienGaming  its the other way around, these billionares give value to people who work. Without them and other business owners, most people would have no way to provide for themselves. Look what happens when a factory leaves a town, it just slowly dies.

  12.  @stevechance150  i have heard they are actually offended when you say they are socialist countries because they have a free market, use capitolist principles, defend private property ownership. They just heavily tax the middle class to pay for welfare programs. In the US the middle class pays virtually no taxes.

  13.  Detrumpificator4377  some people just work harder, are smarter and more driven than most. If you have a system that holds these people down; they are bound to leave. Look at China, their wealthy have started running towards the exits. China actually jailed one guy trying to leave.

  14.  @grmpEqweer  also is it true you guys get paid 5 cents per post you make on social media??
    7
  15.  @grmpEqweer  hey so did you make another 5 cents for this post? How do you guys like the Ccp in China. They seem like they are moving away from communism and wholly embracing capitalism there now.

  16.  @senboy9002  at least euthanasia is cheap in these socialized medicine countries. I hear they are taking out the homeless too.

  17.  @Lily-gr1ct  not to brag but I make 3x what most people do and work less than 40 hours a week. I got out of the hourly wage trap and did my own thing. There is no safety net, no benefits when you do your own thing but the upside is unlimited.

  18. rent isn't getting more expensive, the value of money has decreased dramatically. The money supply was increased by 7 trillion dollars. As a result, everything is more expensive. Housing is not a human right. You are not entitled to the labor of another person or their property.

  19. where i live, investors bought up a bunch of dilapidated crack houses and fixed them up. I am an uber driver so I have seen a major improvement in the neighborhoods because of air bnb. None of these clowns who are complaining about lack of housing would touch these houses. This is why they will be forever renters.

  20.  @Alex-cq1zr  my understanding of communism is essentially the state owning the means of production and banning ownership of private property. The problem is govt employees tend to not be very motivated or smart. They then to give contracts to their friends who are also incompetent. Then the economy collapses. Smart people flee in record numbers. Investment dries up. Currency collapses. Govt defaults on al public debt. Sound about right?

  21. well, unions cause companies to go under so it makes sense to me.

  22. for what? Being good at math.

  23. if you think medicine is expensive now, wait until its free.

  24.  @Kingzzxepic  well you get what you pay for, and with socialized medicine it’s nothing. So you likely will get nothing.

  25.  @robert2690  no but with this spending, the money will be worthless.

  26.  @sheepcommander_  well, the only reason I say that is there are a ton of people position online who are communists. I virtually never met communists in my day to day because most people realize that is a failed economic system. It has to be the ccp

  27. unions by their very nature are inflationary as they drive up the cost of labor and reduce its productivity. In a time where costs everywhere are rising out of control, there is no place for unions in our economy. It will likely take a currency collapse to push us to that point, but we will get there. Wages went up for wait staff in restaurants in my area, I stopped going and now just make my food. If subway employees make 20 an hour and a sandwich is 17 I will stop going and no union will save you from unemployment.

  28. like what? I already pay taxes on my house, cars and boat. What else?

  29. @ yeah but you realize as a persons tax burden goes up their productivity goes down. You get to a place where it’s not even worth it to go to work at some point because taxes will eat up any profit.

  30.  @DustinLaGriza  yeah the numbers just don't make sense for universal health care. We are already going bankrupt because of healthcare. The only solution is for the govt to get out of healthcare all together or to completely nationalize it and cut everyones pay in half or more. From the the top down. The problem is most doctors would just set up shop in mexico and take cash.

  31. @ you are getting that bible verse wrong. It’s the love of money that is the root of all evil. 1 Timothy 6:10

  32.  @Lily-gr1ct  when the factory owner shuts down because his can make more money in Mexico and now the workers have nothing to do, maybe they should have been happy with their wages and/or developed new skills.

  33.  @youtubesucks1499  the top 10% of earners pay 73% of all taxes. The bottom 50% pay 2.3% of all taxes. You tell me what would happen if the top 10% decide to stop working and therefore pay no taxes. This county would end in 6 months. The fed would have to print more money than has ever existed and it wouldn’t be enough.

  36. Please fire all these people.

  37.  @Dominique03  talk to anyone in a union. They take money out of your check and only protect the lazy people. They destroy most companies.

  38. we have 5 kids, paid zero for childcare because my wife stayed home with the kids. we had to let go of alot of things. But the 2 income homes appear miserable. we have a modest home and can't go to starbucks every day. Is way better than this nonsense.

  39. I have a feeling this plant will be moving to Mexico.

  40.  @gaslitworldf.melissab2897  it’s never enough. When I made $12 an hour I wish I had a little more, then $15, just a little more, $30 a little more and so on. The point is it’s never enough.

  41.  @kimberlychodur3508  imagine living in a county where the govt decided if you get health care or not.

  42. I have lost a ton of money the past couple of years investing in biotech companies. Never again. Money is leaving pharmaceuticals in a rapid pace. There are these billion dollar companies going under now. The prices do seem insane but the cost to make these drugs is also insane.

  43. major automakers are already abandoning EV's. They can't compete with tesla. American cars are just poorly build. I drive for a living and wouldn't take an american car if it was free. Everything would break in no time. Toyota is the only car I would ever buy. These american car companies will go the way of TV factories in our life time.

  44. In order for universal healthcare to work, all doctors, nurses etc have to accept a 50% pay cut. It’s simply unaffordable what they are charging for their time.

  45.  @ts109  honesty, where we are here is pretty good. The poor in the us have it better than most middle class in 90% of the world. If you change the system we have it could plunge the poor in the us to devastating poverty that the rest of the world has to deal with. Keep in mind, like 70% of china has to live on like $300 a year. The poor in the us have no idea what poverty is.

  46. everything I have heard is the ev's from ford were a disaster and no one wants them. They hybrids are doing well, so maybe the plants can make those batteries. I have a feeling this plant will never even start producing cars and this is yet another 9 billion of tax payer dollars wasted.

  47. Don’t forget bread and circuses. When people stop working they will need something to entertain themselves.

  48.  @marcnotarianni1889  I actually work for Amazon as an independent contractor, the pay is good and work is crazy easy. I am actually out doing deliveries now. I am trying to lose weight so I do as many shifts as I can.

  49.  @feydrautha012  what company would make anything without a profit motive. It’s all risk at that point. There is no upside.

  50. i am sitting here waiting on an amazon package. Its an iphone case. Its 50% cheaper than going to walmart or bestbuy. I really don't want amazon to change. I just don't trust going to some random web page as well to buy anything.
