  • Well kid, it’s funny that your ideea it’s not applicable only if it’s sapping resources created beforehand. So is a net consumer not producer. In comunist terms it’s a “parasite on the workers class”.

    There are some key concepts you’re not grasping and you should educate yourself for your own good. Things like:

    • economy is much more than a stock market.
    • producing good and services that people require is the economy itself.
    • politics doesn’t create anything (regardless of the ideology) it suppose to find the best way to manage what has been created by the economy and society.
    • the reliability of a system is inversely proportional with its complexity. In other words things break more complex things have bigger chances to break.

  • You have no ideea what are you talking about!

    A good food supply means a working economy, for gods sake!

    You need seeds, water for irrigation, fertilizers, tractors, various attachments to them, trucks, fuel, silos, for storin, dedicated plants and educated people to build and maintain everything. And I haven’t reached animal husbandry or food processing!

    Or you would argue that we all do subsistence agriculture because then I have a very bad news for you. Where to many for ineficient low yield agriculture and even if this wasn’t a problem,many, like you, don’t know how to do it.





  • And I’m not trying to sell to you anything. I never said you can stop working. I never said you can eat dirt.

    You can stop working only if someone else has already worked for you accumulating value so you can consume now. Even a big business if going forward only through work. The work of you or of your forefathers that you consume now but someone, sometime had to work.

    I asked sapient_cogbag who would do the automation work he likes to be implemented? Because someone has to get up in the morning and actually do that work, it doesn’t grow on it’s own.

    And you’re asking me about threats of starvation and homelessness … I don’t get it …
