Could be worse. My last bithday I fucked my shoulder 3 weeks prior. My family went to a shoooting range to celebrate without me. I didn't get a cake or anything either. I took opioids for it so I was mentally and physically numb the whole day. During the three before that I was in a different country so at least there was an excuse to be alone. I think they wish I was still gone even though I stay quiet and work from my bedroom.

Most got trapped intentionally into low-value economic zones by the government's housing policies before the FHA, and because they didn't own any of the land they couldn't build wealth, and jobs and access to services were hard to find, creating inter-generational poverty. Add onto that that criminal enforcement tends to crack down a lot harder on black communities (especially for drugs, which don't see significantly greater usage in black neighborhoods, yet sentencing on "black" drugs is drastically harsher) means that not only are they taken out of the community far more often into a state where they can't add to the economic value, they generally have a far harder time getting work once out.

Add on the fact that there's a history of White America destroying black communities that did gain success:

>Suburb of Tulsa that was known as Black Wall Street gets firebombed from the air, armed whites rampage through, beating, killing, robbing, and looting, police round up the blacks and let the Whites do whatever they want

And freeways were used as a way to bulldoze black neighborhoods, which forced the residents out of property they owned, but since they were de facto or explicitly banned from areas (often explicitly in suburb bylaws, Levittown, NY literally ruled itself "Whites Only") that weren't "red" by federal maps, they got trapped.

>Having worked extensively with millennials at my companies, I’ve found they often work incredibly hard. But first, they need to feel like what they’re working toward aligns with their own goals and aspirations. Specifically, I hired a lot of freshly graduated art history students to work as account representatives at Lofty.com. I ensured upon hiring them that I knew what they wanted to build in their careers, and ensure that their role within Lofty would amount to that end. This created a management-employee partnership. They worked hard for my company because they felt they were getting something out of it that benefited them.

Not the first two years. Democrats had supermajorities in both House and Senate, and they had the White House, from 2009 to 2011. The Republicans have never had that. In fact, a double supermajority plus presidency has occurred twice before, every time it's Democrats.
>the 89th Congress + LBJ: 1965-1967 (the result was the Great Society and Vietnam War)
>the 95th Congress + Jimmy Carter: 1977-1979 (the result of severe economic recession, gas shortage, hostages in Iran, and we gave away the Panama Canal)
>the 111th Congress + Obama: 2009-2011 (the result was war with Libya, Syria, a terrible deal with Iran, and Obamacare)

Democrats have certain things they want to do (go to war and cripple the economy) while other things remain "pet projects" that they could've taken care of a long time ago (end warrantless wiretapping, close Gitmo, make 9/11 benefits permanent). Anything they wanted before 2008, but did not get, is solely on them for not getting it.

During those two years they mainly focused on getting out of the wars and on healthcare reform that would be a palatable compromise to the Republicans (a market-based system almost exactly cloned from Mitt Romney's own state system), not realizing that the only thing Republicans care about is getting credit for something being done.

The one that had Iran giving up a lot of stuff and signalling civil and good-faith negotiations on both sides?

Socialism literally just means a centrally planned economy, that lacks a price mechanism, and therefore lacks a market system.

This inevitably, inexorably, in every conceivable reality results in a totalitarian political environment, as well as deadly shortages and useless surpluses.

I mean, it's not that hard to understand.

Now, if you are only referring to a welfare system, that is not socialism. Welfare specifically requires a market system, and greatly benefits off the tax revenue generated in a capitalist economy. Not socialism.

Nobody has ever implemented Marx's theories, yes, because they're impossible to implement in a real human society larger than a village. But plenty have successfully integrated basics like "the rich shouldn't be able to hoard the wealth of the nation," "healthcare should be affordable and accessible to all," and "affordable public education is critical to the nation's future."

And when you bring up Venezuela, you conveniently ignore that it's because a small few used the manufactured oil shortage of the oughts to completely rewrite the entire economy to be dependent on the State's oil profits.

Democratic Socialism is primarily a capitalist market system that takes a few services that do very poorly on the free market, like healthcare and education, and puts them as government services paid by taxes.

It also ensures welfare is what it should be, a safety net, and not what it is in the US right now: subsidization of unlivable wages.

But that's the thing, nobody's even saying "take over everything!" We aren't even saying with healthcare that anything will be taken over. The current plan would be to expand a successful program (Medicare) to all and use that centralized bargaining power to cut out most private insurers, who've taken up a position as a middle man that inflates all costs to insane levels.

Something else to consider: The IRS already has everything it needs to run your taxes and send you an end of year receipt, with a payout or bill if the amount paid throughout the year was off. But instead they sit there with their thumbs up their asses waiting for you to file the info they already have because the tax prep industry has successfully lobbied against that fix every time it's been brought up. By members of both parties, no less (Reagan and Obama are notable examples).

In the US it absolutely requires you to be seeking work or working. Also, it's pretty true. Welfare is more a subsidy for the rich than the poor, as it allows those dank 35 hour minimum wage "part time" jobs where you can't reasonably make accommodations to get another job, can't afford schooling, and don't gain meaningful experience to be promoted. Your only real options are yo subsidize yourself with welfare or starve, which allows huge companies to get away vastly underpaying.

And Walmart's use of it is particularly egregious. They pay as little as they can get away with, promote all of their employees to get on SNAP (literally, they push that), and since their presence kills local businesses in rural areas, they don't have many other places to spend their SNAP funds except at Walmart, not that they would anyways, since they stretch their money out better with their discount. And since Walmart is taking so many SNAP dollars, they get a huge tax credit.

Meanwhile, each of the Waltons personally take home more per hour than their average employee does in a year.

He's talking about the Waltons, the shareholder family. The interest rate on their individual net worths conservatively would amount to about three billion dollars a year at 2% annual increase in value.

With the 2% appreciation of their assets alone, say through bond value, each employee would get a $1,300 bonus per year without their initial 150billion dollar net worth being touched.

Even so, I'm not particularly arguing in favor or against it, just running the math with the right people. The entire system is a shitshow that would need a war or total collapse to build up in a less wonky manner.

No, they could just increase pay rates across the board before it ever goes to them, but they won't because the post-Reagan tax structure promotes shareholder value above every other concern when it comes to a company's actions.

No, they'd just not bother paying them more than they were forced to. Or they do shit like the Company Town, where you end up owing the company more than you earn.

Pure capitalism treats workers like a resource to be exploited and burned through, which was why Unions and collective bargaining came about and were the actual reason livable wages and sane work hours became the norm.
