We slaves now
Real serfdom hours
We have 327 million people now for frame of reference
The 70s brougjt a post-wwii boom recession and the economy had to be rapidly converted in order to bring back the growth. That's why the later half of the 80s and 90s were so great.
Wasn't it Reagan that said "Greed is good"?
This is the Reaganomics era, and for America to stay dominant, and for wealth to trickle """down""" you need people working, not homesteading
You need people near entirely reliant on both ends of this new digital world of consumerism
Amazon came up earlier, and is a good example. Walmart is another one.
We over 350 mil with illegals
As shitty as it is to give a company a monopoly on an area, the people there need it. They need the job to be able to survive by turning around and paying what little they get for their labor right back to the company.
So essentially, people need to work if they want these material items that they can’t make/get themselves?
That's the real damning effects on these kinds of companies. It's not just that they shut down other businesses, it's that they dominate the value and return of labor in that community, so much that laborers cannot afford to question practices, unionize, or strike.
People need to work to eat.
People are no longer allowed to see the full value of their labor, you don't get to reap what you sow in a metaphorical or literal sense anymore, especially when you're not allowed the land to do it on.
It's not even a matter of being able to afford the land outright, you're taxed on the land because it forces you to stay chained to a trickle """down""" economy.
We studied the alienation going on with working in our era in my ethics course
The cost of your land taxes is also arbitrarily set and those with more capital than you can easily run you out of being able to afford the tax, and then leave you no choice but to sell.
A concept that is most easily understood through home market values raising or lowering based on the value of the lots around them.
Also, Tex called land we can't access this way anymore "Public" land, which is not a term I appreciate when a lot of it is policed so strictly. Half of the state of California is Federal land. Public land is not a good title to be used because it implies free and fair access to it.
What I was getting at here is the state will come arrest you for that.
Doesn't matter if you live zero-impact, you're an example to be made.
June's the month of the doomer in FC.
It's like that guy that claimed an oil platform as how own country
And he doesn't even live on it because he knows the threats are real. <:kek:519747357076881408>
I hate that it’s just a waiting game for this to all self destruct
Radio platform, not oil, I think.*
June is comfy
