isn't that like every socialist ever?
exactly
His beef with capitalism was when people worked 80+ hours and still not able to get by
workers rights were non existent
I find that a lot of people we call lazy were actually unwilling to HOBNOB to get the job they were after.
we still kind of have that work force
its smaller now
Like, the amount of networking to get into some careers is ridiculous.
but the ones who work double jobs
Kissing ass shouldn't be a requirement.
If you work 80 hours today minimum wage you have lots of money
...
Sounds like you're basically saving up to pay your future medical bills.
thats like 45k a year
and thats 11 bucks an hour
If that.
thats a middle class income in Europe
Minimum wage is 7.5 where I live.
due to high taxes
32k at the 7.5 one
Oh for fuck sake.
Only the technology has gotten better.
Everything else has worsened.
Spoiled my ass.
naw, everything else has stayed the same
but tech made our lives better on average
Relationships?
Relationships have worsened.
but if marx was here today, he'd still be a marxist
Divorces are high. Fatherlessness is rampant.
you wouldn't want a relationship with the people that are now considered worsened
lifestyles
@Scribblehatch before divorce, you had lots of Mistress and beaten wives
its not really different
if anything, its slightly better
Most people live super wealthy life styles relative to the past
Now is the best times in humanity to live
thanks to tech
Do you know about LBJ's welfare
we still have wife beaters 😉 (referencing the clothes)
