Dohohoho. Well, that's a fucking surprise.

>implying any new media is to be trusted to be above rhetoric

>fox news is entirely composed of retards

DURRR.....everyone knows faux news is bullshit. It is fucking trivial.

Only really really old, senile people watch that nonsense.

SPOILERS: Everybody is retarded. Even you. Even me.

We are not as smart as we think we are. The only difference between idiots and geniuses is a regular application of critical thinking. But it takes constant vigilance. We tend to drop our guards when we see something we want to believe in. This article being a prime example.

But go ahead and laugh at these people they deserve it. Just don't think you aren't guilty of the same behavior.

Faux new is for retards

This is fucking highlarious, thanks for the post.
Laughing at these clowns always cheers me up.

>FAUX VEIWER DETECTED

Oh goodness, I'm loving it. Kids, aren't you taught in school to check your sources as legitimate or not? One website, and a non accredited news source at that was the only thing that you went on? Oh good grief.

>>2129703
Ad hominem? Fuck off.

But no, I don't watch Fox. Nor MSNBC. Nor CNN.

>>2129759
DId you check sources when they told you about the holocaust

>>2129783

Nazi detected. They took vidya footage of the body heaps, and showed it to us in school.

>>2129792
lol sure they did...

>>2129658
>Just don't think you aren't guilty of the same behavior.

Some people are MUCH MUCH more guilty however. The people in Ops post for example.

>>2129578
OP pic is retarded.
- Cost of factory and associated equipment.
- Cost of resources to manufacture product.
- Cost of shipping and storage of product.
- Cost of marketers and advertising.
- Cost of store or shelf space to sell product.
- Cost of salesmen to push product.
- Cost of future investment for growth.

That's just off the top of my head, and I know next to nothing about running a business. That worker would have to be making more than the manager in that pic. A lot more.

>>2129807

Except that the profits go into the pockets of the capitalist to use at his discretion, not just into capital for business expansion.

There is no need for the capitalist there - the workers could decide how much to commit to capital and use the rest for their own wages, eliminating an entire useless fraction of the economy.

>>2129807
>>2129807
butthurt capitalist detected

>>2129807
And where did the money for that come from? Trace it all back, the money comes from the workers.

>>2129818
Mwuahaha... you actually believe this don't you.

>>2129823

American detected. I recognized its foul stench when I was brought on board.

>>2129807
>>know next to nothing about running a business.

then shut the fuck up. idiot.

>>2129832
Cant miss that gasoline and cheeseburger stench.

>implying the viewers of any news outlet are not this stupid.

>>2129832
>>2129843
Business owners are we?

>>2129807
he mad

>>2129818
Ok. So then the workers decide to start selling their product.

Oh wait, first they need to buy the equipment (we'll assume they already posses any and all associated rights). So they take out a loan and pay it off slowly, no problem.

Oh wait, how will they sell it if they spend all their time manufacturing? Ok, so they appoint one guy to sell the stuff, no big deal. But where will they sell their product? How will they advertise? How will they plan their business to adapt to a dynamic market?

It gets pretty complicated really quick. So you need some management. Oops. You're back where you started, minus wasted time, resources, and productivity.

Idiot.

>>2129885

Except now no one gets paid out of proportion, the proles get better standards of living and all of their lives are improved by democratic decision making.

>>2129914
What are you, retarded?

>>2129963

>>2129914
LOL, no. Maybe they would start off that way, but as soon as you get anyone in a position of power over another, that ideal is toast.

Labor is cheap and easily replaced. As soon as anyone has to make any sort of sacrifice, they will be the first on the chopping block.

>>2129972
There was no point to refute, retard. Only Utopian bullshit, which is itself a fallacy.

>>2130008

Utopian is believing that everyone acting out of sheer greed will lead to the best possible outcome

My anonymous friend. Just know that an anonymous person (me) is going to quote you regularly throughout their life now.

>>2130262
Nobody here said anything like that, retard.

Fuck off with your half-baked, delusional idealism.

>>2130333
>Utopian is believing that everyone acting out of sheer greed will lead to the best possible outcome
That's essentially what capitalism is. Read Wealth of Nations.

>GOODS, evollso

Why yes captcha, I suppose goods do evolve.

Wow you Murikans are super-brainwashed. Maybe you should try visiting other countries once in a while. Socialism is a great idea and complements capitalism nicely.
