Back when Capitalism was at its all time high.

2019-09-09 22:02:16 UTC  

(Good) Labor Unions.

2019-09-09 22:02:28 UTC  

Labor Unions secured massive benefits for workers

2019-09-09 22:02:36 UTC  

Nowadays theyre just as corrupt as corporations however

2019-09-09 22:02:36 UTC  

Unions themselves have to kept in check though.

2019-09-09 22:02:40 UTC  

Yeah

2019-09-09 22:02:51 UTC  

But the answer is Labor Unions, they are the check for corporations

Take a look at this

2019-09-09 22:03:47 UTC  

A single dad could work a middle class job, and support his wife, 2 kids, own 2 cars, and buy a house in the 40's and 50's

2019-09-09 22:04:00 UTC  

A combination of corruption in both labor unions and corporations

2019-09-09 22:04:02 UTC  

I provide low income housing and deal in real estate. So I can actually vouch that this graph is accurate.

2019-09-09 22:04:03 UTC  

Has ended this

2019-09-09 22:04:32 UTC  

Fact is, Corporations have abused their greed to levels which cannot be tolerated

2019-09-09 22:04:38 UTC  

I agree

2019-09-09 22:05:06 UTC  

I would propose that the federal wage should be increased to *match* buying power and inflation

2019-09-09 22:05:20 UTC  

Because corporations intentionally pay less than they should otherwise

2019-09-09 22:05:26 UTC  

Whereas during the developing ages of the US, they were building the country up. Now they are producing the newest iPhone. That’s not worthy enough to sacrifice the population.

2019-09-09 22:05:36 UTC  

Secondly, Labor Unions need to be given more bargaining power against Corporations

2019-09-09 22:05:58 UTC  

I disagree. Possibly against large corporations

2019-09-09 22:06:11 UTC  

But the problem is you will end up harming you’re own goals

2019-09-09 22:06:20 UTC  

But the core of the problem is infact capitalism, because the very essence of it is to make as much profit as possible

2019-09-09 22:06:27 UTC  

Which hurts everyone

2019-09-09 22:06:47 UTC  

Which is why I believe in a Tri-Society.

2019-09-09 22:06:57 UTC  

Religion. Capitalism. Democracy.

2019-09-09 22:07:02 UTC  

Now, with new technology being developed, there is a uniquely interesting path for economic planning as opposed to capitalism

2019-09-09 22:07:05 UTC  

Planned Economy

2019-09-09 22:07:08 UTC  

A.I Planned Economy

2019-09-09 22:07:11 UTC  

No.

2019-09-09 22:07:30 UTC  

In simulations, AI Planned Economy has already surpassed private control of econmics

2019-09-09 22:07:34 UTC  

Government needs to stay out of the economy.

2019-09-09 22:07:43 UTC  

The only problem is the tech isnt ready enough to be scaled to a nation level

2019-09-09 22:07:57 UTC  

Government destroys economies and is worse than corporations when it comes to greed.

2019-09-09 22:08:06 UTC  

Except it's not government directly

2019-09-09 22:08:08 UTC  

It's A.I

2019-09-09 22:08:14 UTC  

No.

2019-09-09 22:08:28 UTC  

A.I.s should not exist.

2019-09-09 22:08:41 UTC  

I agree, however there is a problem with that stance

2019-09-09 22:08:51 UTC  

It will happen anyways?

2019-09-09 22:08:54 UTC  

I know

2019-09-09 22:08:56 UTC  

Other countries dont care what you think, they'll use the A.I to beat you
