you're not the leading edge of anything
you're just shit
we're having a discourse right now
which I've been leading from the start
checkmate
Can't we all just get along?
And seize the means of production
explain why seizing the means of production is either necessary or effective
because otherwise capital brings more capital into itself, a runaway feedback effect that necessarily destroys society (including itself)
but are you saying you want unskilled laborers to take all the profits from a business that they put no investment into
an organization that was built from the ground up by its owner(s)
because if thats the case then entrepeurs wouldnt exist
businesses aren't especially built by their owners, that's the point
they're built by their employees
thats not true
notice that managers are also employees
owners literally don't do shit
I worked in a factory that was owned by a guy who started his business selling fruit out the back of his truck
and now he produces all the fruit bars and snacks in the country
he built that
and hes a millionaire now
so if ownership were to be assigned to someone else, would that be unfair
because then he wouldn't be compensated for all that work
if someone other than him were the owner, that would be unfair, huh?
thats what buyouts and mergers are, compensation
they should make the owner be whoever did the most work to make the company, huh
they dont seize their means of production, they pay them what their business is worth, which is usually int he tens of millions
so some unskilled labourer who walks in off the street should just get the company?
no whoever does the work to make the company
so the person who owns the company?
not who technically owns the resources needed
its like you're trying to fix something that isnt broken
i'm explaining to you in your own terms but you still don't understand
you think he deserves the company because he worked hard
what if someone else technically owned the food truck at first
no he owns it because it was his to begin with
then should all that hard work mean he just gets a minimal payment and no ownership
it's the same work
no because that would be stealing
which is what you're proposing
