Seriously, go fuck yourself with a rake, you goddamn trailer trash.

so many mass shootings in japan. fucking horrible

Walmart is a company, not the government, although I can see how you Americans might be confused about that. A company choosing to remove ads from it's own stores about violent videogames is completely irrelevant to this.

Americans have incredible short attention spans. Noticed how many liberals who were outraged more than ever about the initial ICE raids forgot about it a week later.

You sure you guys wanna try this one again? Because it always ends with crime stats being posted proving that it's not guns but a certain something else that is responsible for the high crime rate in American compared to Japan.

fucking niggers mounting eachother and using eachother to shoot down entire places.

Why are you here? Don't you have a trump fanfiction to jerk off to?

I like trump but that was a fucked thing he said. Although it's just as bad as the "Yea Forums and guns kill people mindset" so whatever

(((studies)))

Gaming journalists will never turn against violence in video games. It's an integral element in at least 80% of all games. They would fuck up their very own industry.

There are still protests all over the country. The only moron who forgot to check was you, because Fox news stopped reporting them.
What a fucking jackass.

Yeah studies are the ultimate form of jewery. Why should you trust something that was made by people whose lives were dedicated to research when I can trust people who know what they're saying intuitively?

>/pol/tard immediately plays the strawman card
Just like the palybook tells you to.

Uh no, people moved on to the next thing like they always do. No one talks about the Ice raids anymore.

Next you're gonna tell me that CNN and MSNBC are still talking about that kid from Covington, KY.

They've tried this same shit with music and movies over the decades, to no effect. When every bit of research shows that violent fictional media doesn't cause violence. This is and always has been a scapegoat for hillbillies who think the guvmint is going to take away their guns if they regulate them and stop selling them to crazy retards and convicted felons.

Uh yes, there are protests at ice concentration camps every week. People in communities are helping to hide possible targets.
Just because you don't like it, it doesn't mean it's not happening. Covering your ears isn't going to help, either.

Nobody but trailer trash and obese virgins were begging for that fat pedo fuck. Go jump off a cliff, cockbreath.

all those people who make video games are also companies. one company does one thing others will follow. the domino effect isnt something to fuck with. walmart is a giant seller of video games if amazon decides to follow suit, vidya companies will no longer be interested in making violent vidya and all we got from now on will be telletubbie shit.

>studies are the ultimate form of jewery
This is what the trumpanzee is reduced to when confronted with reality. Crikey, what a beautiful animal.

Yeah, but it's not being reported like it initially was. Everyone literally has moved on outside of the occasional protests and that is what I'm saying. Which is something that is hard for you to grasp.

It's important to remember that the video game industry has already admitted video games influence real life by removing sexualized content from their games, because they say it makes men treat women worse.

I honestly want to know how many of these mass shooters haven't played video games. I'm willing to bet that it's a good chunk of them.

Lefties causing social tensions leads directly to normal people being pushed towards extremes. Some less mentally stable persons will inevitably be pushed over the edge and snap.

Although I'm more inclined to believe all this "right wing violence" against random innocents has been false flag after false flag by gun grabbers. What's the point of attacking randoms if you could just as well target those responsible for the shit our society is in?
Given the fact that there are people who do not care in the slightest about human life and just see manipulation as a tool to fulfill their own goals, it's not really that far out to imagine these "terrorists" being groomed and manipulated into executing these attacks by some other party that has its own agenda (which would most likely be neither left wing nor right wing. The goal is to sow division)

People are being made extremist. Both left and right are being played. Don't underestimate how psychopathic some powerful people are. They would throw their own mother under the bus if they could get something out of it.
They control the media, and thus the entire narrative normies get to hear.
The FBI is known for manufacturing terrorists and then swooping in at the last second to claim the credit for stopping yet another terrorist.
It just doesn't make a lick of sense for some young guy to just go shoot up a bunch of randoms for no reason all on their own.
Gun ownership of the common people is a threat to the elites, so it makes a lot of sense for them to try to turn public opinion against gun rights. What better way to achieve maximum public outrage than attacking random innocents?
And we know the US government isn't shy of manipulating people for nefarious purposes, just look at mkultra.

It's not absurd, it's just having a modicum of critical thought.

Or maybe mass shootings inspire violent video games? Why is it always a case of life imitating art with these Philistines.

I think it was sarcastic

>Lefties causing social tensions leads directly to normal people being pushed towards extremes.
I love this complete disregard of responsibility. This is like saying "Racism started when that nigger moved in and we had to lynch him. Why would the north do this?"

>Although I'm more inclined to believe all this "right wing violence" against random innocents has been false flag after false flag by gun grabbers.
Oh a schizoposter. That explains it.

>What's the point of attacking randoms if you could just as well target those responsible for the shit our society is in?
The El Paso shooter laid out his reasoning and specifically targeted an area he thought would be full of illegals. The Garlic Festival shooter's motives are unknown but he said he was angry, and the Dayton shooter likely had a psychotic break brought on by his sister and her friend inviting an angry incel to go clubbing and "have sex". This idea that everyone with guns are perfectly reasonable and sane good boys who dindu nuffin is absurd.

Well, Epstein killed himself.
Trump is safe. Party on r/The_Donald and you're all invited!

That's not true. I used to be able to search for it easily.

Most of them are cutscenes.
Ban movies and series at this point.

It's "Diamonds are the hardest metal known the man."

> “I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy,” Trump booms from a speakerphone. “He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it — Jeffrey enjoys his social life.”

>It just doesn't make a lick of sense for some young guy to just go shoot up a bunch of randoms for no reason all on their own.
Except he did have a reason: He hated immigrants. When the guy went on a shooting spree, he went and killed a bunch of people of Mexican descent. He knew what he was doing, he said what he was doing, at what point did his actions not make sense?

This isn't contained to the US either: An Australian literally moved to a different country in order to shoot some Muslims. Citing the same sort of references only more overtly. These are the sort of people Right-Wing echo chambers breed, and these shootings were only a few months separated from each other, so you can't even deny they're of the same cloth.

I'm not defending the left and their obsession with sex and being a pretend superhero. I'm just saying that the right is no better, and just express their unique flaws in a different way.

Fake News. There's no source for this. Trump said he didn't know Epstein.

Oh and he sees video game censorship as a way of stopping gun violence.

If you're talking about hate speech laws, the logic is that you're inciting violence against people. If you spend time putting together information about your neighbor and outlining why people should day of the rope them, legal action can be taken against you.

Who cares? We're not talking about the Antifa shooter, we're talking about the shooter from last week. You were too until you apparently felt you were in a weak position.

Why do you guys always resort to "What about..." when someone corners you?

He's talking about two shooters with clear motives. He didn't mention Dayton because that was likely a case of psychosis and wasn't politically motivated or premeditated. The media has been talking about the Dayton shooting and showed footage and celebrated the heroes and talked about the the shooter is a leftist. Infact, for the little bit of MSNBC I watched one night say Chris Hayes mention the politics of the Dayton shooter twice the day before Trump tweets "it'd be great if the left-wing media won't mention the Dayton shooter's politics! Thanks!"

His ties with Epstein are well documented. Legally and in the media. And yes, he claims he threw Epstein out of Mar-a-lago over some incident, no proof of THAT. The papers unsealed yesterday show Trump flew with Epstein multiple times over the following 5 years. He didn't cut ties.

As far as blaming video games, he's lying there, too. He has to blame something other than guns or his own hateful rhetoric. Everyone jumping on the 'blame games' train is simply trying to shore up the lie to keep the Republican agenda strong.

If you wanna act superior in the game of semantics, go for it. But you know very well there seems to be a scream for censorship in the media because it causes violence against xxx victim group, but they also vocalize that games don't contribute to violence. Seems odd don't you think? I wonder why that is.

Because they don't have much moral ground to stand on with Trump who himself tried to compare the El Paso shooting to Sandy Hook to bitch about Obama.

Wow it's almost like new things happen everyday and need to be reported too

And all actual studies done (even by the FBI, a fairly conservative group, led by a Trump apponted guy) show that right-wing and white supremacist violence far, FAR exceeds any left wing violence. Both in damage, frequency, etc. Lie all you want about the supposed antifa boogieman, but you and your ilk are the aggressors.

i am not acting superior, i just want to confirm that you're an idiot and what you quote has no relation to what i say.
also media is always stupid, what else did you expect?

>But you know very well there seems to be a scream for censorship in the media because it causes violence against xxx victim group,

Reminder it was proven tifa's breasts weren't actually changed. Keep spreading fake news though.

That's actually why that shooting happened in New Zealand. Australia's gun laws were too strict. The point of gun laws into to erase murder, but to make it harder to do so, especially when it comes to murdering crowds of people in a quick and efficient manner. There's a reason we don't hunt with knives or jars of acid but that is quickly forgotten in these debates.

99% of murder is either gang related or domestic issues and not having guns wouldn't change that at all. Hell if anything you'd probably just increase home invasions and crime from gangs towards non gangs due to the huge black market.
Somewhere between 800k - 3 million crimes are stopped by the defensive use of firearms yearly. All you'd really do is get rid of that

What the fuck is your retarded logic? A dead person is dead, and when more people seem to be getting killed due to a change a demographics, a concern should be going through your head.

Okay? If you can reduce murder, what percentage is domestic or gang related are irrelevant.

That's not the point at all and Japanese murder and mass murder is still much lower than America's.

Common sense gun control, red flag laws, and making it harder to own "assault style" weapons isn't a call to ban everything and you know this.

My logic is that guns facilitate the process of killing and we all know this. Some guns are made with the express purpose of killing as many people as possible in the shortest amount of time. It takes a whole lot of intellectual dishonesty to spin acid and knife attacks as being the same thing so nothing should ever be done.

If an ISIS recruit was shopping around online for a good weapon to spread peace with and asking questions about how to get one, no one could do anything. It'd be great if some action could be taken.

1. You aren't removing anything, the black market would still exist and that's not going away ever.
2. Again, murder rate would not go down. Homicide rate stays virtually the same whenever gun control is enacted anywhere in the world, methods just change

It's true. Machete gangs are the after effects of removing guns. You turn gangsters into posers who don't do shit.

Do non americans really think buying a gun is as easy as going to amazon, searching AR-15, and hitting buy now?

Canada has second place in that ranking, I bet it's those filthy burger immigrants fault.

Except that's wrong.
People suspected of terrorism are already put on federal waits for gun purchases and the FBI has the opportunity of investigating the individual further before the wait time reaches a conclusion

South american machete gangs fuck shit up just fine. Sounds like Ausfailians being pussies to me.

It worked in Australia, continues to work in Australia, and countries with high gun ownership can actually make fun safety laws easier than they can in America.

americans are the problem
ban americans

See
It didn't so shit in Australia you retard. The homicide rate in the 10 years following Australian gun control saw a sharper decline in the US than Australia.

If people are so paranoid about mass shootings, why don't they start concealed carrying?

thats a pretty good speech and the fact of the matter is that america isnt the only country in the world with guns, and while an argument can be made about what kind of guns americans are allowed to buy, the fact of the matter is that there are other countries with guns and hardly any mass shootings

if you shoot up a mall, a school, etc, it means only one thing,you have mental issues, you live an unfulfilled life which you did not hesitate to throw away, and if you didnt buy a gun you wouldve driven a truck through a group of people or something

what these people need is help, connections, a reason to not toss their life away in a bloodbath

so how about if, instead of restricting gun ownership even more, which may i remind you has yet to do anything to stop mass shootings, lets try helping these people

I'm pretty sure those unkilled by machete gang niggers are doing pretty well. An Australian carried out a shooting in NZ because they had more lax gun laws there.

Wait, the christchurch guy flew to NZ specifically to carry out a mass shooting?

So maybe a two year wait period for gun ownership will result in less gun crime. You're showing how bomb control works. Is it a 100% fix? No, but the fact that American bombings are so low is telling. If guns and control don't contribute, it wouldn't matter. Actually bombs should be preferable.

Mass shootings going down doesn't save shit, you just have more vehicular rampage and no change whatsoever in generic homicide. Basic statistics can show you the homicide rate stays the same
He carried out a shooting in NZ because he wanted to spark outrage and create a push for gun control and division in the US, which if he had done it in Aussie land there wouldn't be pushes for gun control since they already have it, read his manifesto he points this out

Video games don't cause violence.
A combination of vidya and psychotropic drugs do.

Year or two wait period?
So you move to a crime ridden neighborhood or you have someone stalking you and you should have to fend for yourself for 1-2 years? Are you fucking stupid?
The point of guns being quickly accessed is sometimes you fucking need it quickly for your own safety.

>the fact that American bombings are so low is telling
It would only be telling if guns in america weren't a thing.
>Actually bombs should be preferable
Holy shit no, you fucking retard. At least you can try and run away from a shooter. You can't run from a fucking bomb. Goddamn, how stupid are you?

Well I have good news for you. You probably won't be living for much longer anyway.

When bombs and arson becomes preferable these mass homicides will go from an average of 6-7 deaths to an average of 30 deaths

There's only one study I've seen which shows a negative impact on brain activity regarding video games and it's a very specific thing.
Prolonged use of waypoint markers leads to a decreased effectiveness of the hippocampus and decreased spatial awareness. This isn't localized to video games, it's also caused by overuse of GPS navigation and similar tools. Basically quest markers do in fact make you stupid.
Nothing else has a permanent effect on the brain.

>So you just going to ignore the millions of illegal aliens invading?

given the fact their birth rates are plummeting no replacement is going to take place

arguments for and against immigration can be made but the position of "replacement" is indefensible because the data shows its simply not going to happen

>They ain't making new ones, they are importing old ones.

alright but obviously the entirety of mexico is not leaving mexico, and the ones that do, are on average having less and less kids, specially if they improve their living conditions, you can see this in your own family i bet, your grand parents probably had a shitton of kids, your parents far less and you yourself probably dont have any

>Prolonged use of waypoint markers leads to a decreased effectiveness of the hippocampus and decreased spatial awareness
well yes, if you remove the need to think then the people will stop thinking.

If they ban guns, they'll just move on to banning knoives and foiks from being easily purchased like in good ol' bongland because no one pushing for bans actually wants to blame the people who carry out these acts and do things to mitigate the mindset behind their bloodlust. Better to just disarm and neuter every law-abiding citizen and then have the police kill or jail them instead if the decide they actually want things to defend themselves with.

>replacement isn't going to happen
>american went from mostly white to 56%

I mean bombs should be the method of choice for mass killers but they aren't for some reason. Probably because of bomb control. Didn't you hear? You have to wait two years for the materials to make a bomb and America has a low bomb homicide rate. But also control doesn't work and doesn't matter. And you just said bombs are better than guns. The logic should follow that most mass killers should have an even split among guns, knives, bombs, and acid but for some reason there aren't many bombings in America.

Yes, people on the left are stupid as well. America is fucking stupid. You just proved my point even further. Righties and lefties are exactly the same people.

You don't have to wait two years you dumbass, you could go to home depot and make one right now.
You have to wait two years if you wanted to make a fertilizer bomb the size that McVeigh did with the same stuff he used. There are plenty of substitutes and other materials that can be used instantly.

Not to even mention a fucking chemical attack. You could fill an office building with nerve gas for like $100 and kill dozens / permanently cripple them.

Laws have nothing to do with it. It's lazyness, and you should be happy people are lazy because if they were forced to not be things would get a lot worse

I'm already bored of video games so I'm fine if they ban it. Zoomers just can't handle violent video games, that's apparent. I'm all for a ban of it.

>aws have nothing to do with it. It's lazyness, and you should be happy people are lazy because if they were forced to not be things would get a lot worse

So since knife attacks require a lot more effort than shootings you agree that gun control is effective ?

that's what i'm saying. remove the need to think and the thinking bone in the brain with atrophy, meaning you will need to flex that thinking bone harder next time you do get a need to think. same deal with muscles or other shit in our human bodies: you always have to keep a certain upkeep so the skills and memories and strengths don't deteriorate and become weaknesses, know what i mean?

And all those extra steps make it harder thus it happens less. But sure, video games have more to do with gun violence than any sort of gun law.

>>american went from mostly white to 56%

you are aware that the american census counted mexicans as whites until the 1960s right?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican_Americans#US_census_bureau_classifications

i mean its possible america was once this mostly white paradise, but i wouldnt trust older census to determine that

but EVEN ASSUMING it was indeed once a mostly white country that has now been reduced to le meme percent, that does not imply the rate of """replacement""" is consistent or increasing, and if the birth rates in mexico are decreasing, the naturally it means no replacement can take place

>know what i mean?
Sure it makes sense but the point I was making is that studies have show violent tendencies DURING gameplay like increased aggression and heart rate but those symptoms vanish about 5 minutes after the game ends. There's no study that shows a permanent growth in violence due to games. There are studies that show a lasting negative effect from waypoint markers though. Honestly I would support a ban because they make games shit but the fact that there's scientific evidence that shows them as harmful is genuinely concerning. Unlike the violence thing which isn't concerning due to not being real.

definitely far right right wing. didn't mention jew but is 100% supporter of being an ethno-state and felt like driving 9 hours to wal-mart to shoot up mexicans was the best course of action

>These plus fixing income inequality would do a lot.

shut your mouth

income inequality is the biggest non-issue to ever exist, the implication is that the economy is a zero-sum game and thats just not true

over the past couple of decades the richer have gotten richer true, but the poor have also become richer

any and all government backed "income inequality" solutions, involve stealing someone else's money while the government DECIDES who get a piece while they charge a fee for their oh so helpful services

this isnt just immoral, its been proven time and time again to negatively affect the economy which restricts the work opportunities of the citizens, less and worse jobs INCREASE poverty

poverty is a real problem, income inequality isnt, stop treating them as equivalent

The real fun fact is that economists are "right" and "wrong" based on what is needed to justify current political climate. You can have one economist who can prove that "x is bad" and other than proves the opposite, but that is not important. What is important that you champion the one who fits your political goals.

Milton is perfect example because "inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon" is not actually real, but it is a good mouthful of words to pretend it is real. And if you ever notice it being fake, you just move along instead of reflecting on it.

The economy IS a zero sum game. 30 years of trickle down economics and the rich hoarding all the money proves that.

Government would be doing a helicopter drop, basically giving everyone a massive free WAGE INCREASE, which is quite different from the QE.

You see, you can create a monetary phenomenon that creates inflation, funny thing, there are ALSO A LOT OF MONETARY PHENOMENA THAT DO NOT CAUSE INFLATION. LIKE QUANTITATIVE EASING.

Raise the minimum wage and start a single payer healthcare system. Taxes should move back to post depression rates and cutting most of the taxpayer dollars funnelled into the military industrial complex. The latter two would cover the healthcare and then some. Businesses would have to pay their employees more, but they don’t have to pay for their healthcare anymore so that would be more affordable than it is now.

>single payer healthcare system
that would decrease government a spending a lot but not taxes and i wouldn't expect amerilards to see the benefit of this as they shop around for doctors that are covered by their specific insurance plan if they even have insurance

The real problem is digital distribution and the damage is does to the psyche of people that accept it.
Why does no one talk about the damage paid digital distribution has done?
It is conditioning. It is the kikes' wet dream, money for something that is infinite. People say that the climate change narrative is just a way to eventually tax people for breathing, but that applies to the acceptance of digital distribution even more. Digital distribution has 0 scarcity and infinite supply, it should be worth $0 yet paying for it has been not only accepted, but normalized and most people don't think twice about it. It should either be buy a physical copy or pirate. It is also conditioning to redirect attention away from legalizing unauthorized copy and pasting - commonly wrongly called piracy, and doing away with a lot of our broken IP and copyright system. Paying for digital distribution is a mental illness. Paying for digital distribution is nothing more than giving a donation to a company, and the company doesn't even have the decency to admit it is a download.
It is also Marxist - see Karl Marx' labor theory of value.
It negatively affects video games more than other entertainment. The person that pushed it harder than any others in the video game industry, (((Gabe Newell))), is a Jew and used typical Jew tactics to push it.
The acceptance of being charged for digital distribution shows how sick and degenerated most people are.
"The establishment of a platform from which customers find it difficult or inconvenient to leave is a powerful strategy that underpins almost every successful technology giant. "

>flow of guns from gun dealers through interstate trafficking
It's already illegal to conduct a private sale across state lines without going through an FFL. You're just proving the point that gun control doesn't work further

>letting monopolies fail for one instead of giving out subsidies

now thats something i can get behind, government subsidies interfere with the free market and makes it harder for the best products and services to reach the customer

>and also making sure companies pay taxes. remember both amazon and google pay 0 income tax

i have a fundamental issue with taxes, i think A VERY SELECT FEW are necessary, but heres the fundamental issue with it, there are 4 ways to spend money

1) you can spend your money on yourself, this is the most efficient one, you know how much you earn and you know precisely what you need
2) spend your money on someone else, this is also efficient, you want to spend the least amount of money while also looking good in front of others, you know the limits of how much you can spend
3) spend someone else's money on yourself, heres where the problem starts, you dont know the limits of how much you can spend because its not your money, but you atleast know what you need, and you could convince yourself the right thing is to only spend on yourself what you need
4) spend someone else's money on someone else, all hell breaks lose, here you dont know what the recipient needs or how much the donor can give, you cant even control your spending based on whats right because you are "helping someone"

this makes government spending inherently inefficient, its designed to be inefficient, and any inefficient system always ends up being inhumane

now when it comes to income taxes to these big companies, there are only 3 possible outcomes

1) they will pass the bill down to you, the consumer, products and services get more expensive, you can see this on steam, valve doesnt pay for the taxes imposed upon games, you do, you pay the extra cash
2) the company will grow less, this means it will offer less products/services than it would normally do, or they will be of worse quality, or even worse, they might be inclined to let go of personnel

or 4, the reality of whats happening right now, company just hoards the money and doesn't spend it along with not paying taxes. why is it companies stayed in america in the 50's despite paying the highest taxes in the world?

but QE is literally used mostly when inflation is low or negative because it induces inflation

>BLARMPS
>TRUNTFS
Why do Trump supporters do this?

>the right murders less people
Nope. If we’re talking about shooters with clear political motives it is overwhelmingly white supremacists who kill in droves. The Dayton shooter was more likely an “incel” shooter and calling him Antifa is just you doing identity politics. You might as well blame anime for inspiring the shooting as well. It is just you looking at the identity of the shooter and blaming that for the shooting even if it is completely unrelated

Also the MSM never shut the fuck about about how HURR DURR HE WAS A LEFTIST so you might as well put the DA LEFT CONTROL DA MEDIA narrative to rest

The only thing you have left is
>The Congressional baseball shooting, where the shooter had no ties to Antifa
>The attempted arson of an ICE facility that only led to 1 casualty (the perpetrator)

Anifa being a massive threat to anything and anyone is fucking laughable. The worst they do, both in and out of the United States is beat people up and commit vandalism. Meanwhile for right wing/white supremacists you have
>The Knoxville Unitarian Church shooting
>The 2009 shooting of Pittsburgh police
>The Oakland freeway shootout
>Wisconsin Sikh shooting
>Overland Park Jewish Community Center shooting
>The 2014 Las Vegas shootings
>Charleston Church shooting
>Lafayette shooting
>Portland train attack
>Unite the Right rally
>Murder of Timothy Caughman, and Blaze Bernstein
>Pittsburgh synagogue shooting
>Jefferstontown Kroger shooting
>MAGAbomber
>Poway Synagogue shooting
>The El Paso Cielo shooting
All of which had clear political motives, and that’s just within the US. Outside the US you have
>Anders Breivik
>the Florence shooting
>The Quebec City mosque shooting
>The Macareta shooting
>The Christchurch shooting
All of which the perpetrator had very clear political motives

So no, this is a disingenuous both sides bad argument where you resort to identity politics.

>Is that why under the conservative system, a few people get the entire pizza pie and everyone else is stuck with eating the card board box?
>The economy IS a zero sum game. 30 years of trickle down economics and the rich hoarding all the money proves that.

i think the best way to refute this notion is to use a country that is not the USA

lets use a sad little country, Rwanda, only 20 years ago they had a horrible genocide and the people in the region have always lived in the most miserable poverty

if the economy was a zero-sum game theres no way this country could ever improve, theres just no enough wealth to spread around and make everyone live better

and yet they do, under Paul Kagame, the country has undergone free market reforms inspired by the ones transpired in Singapore, the result? the country is one of the most rapidly growing in africa, between 2006 and 2011 poverty went from 57% to 45%

and yet they did the opposite of what collectivists say, they made doing business much easier, they increase economic freedoms, it is the most economically free country in africa

and its interesting the domino effect a better economy has on people's lives the country has half as many homicides as the US, mortality rates drops, the capital is one of the cleanest in africa


the only way to reduce poverty is by giving individuals the freedom they need to pursue their goals and become valuable members of society

again, 20 years ago, genocide, today, prosperity, safely and growth

i rest my case

companies do not hoard money, they invest it into creating more money making machines, and since life is full of amazing coincidences, these money making machines also happen to be job making machines

Also, how much of their economy is reliant of foreign aid? And what would happen if it all suddenly dried up? Sounds like less your prosperity is a house of cards one strong wind away from collapsing.

i think theres a fundamental understanding with the nature of jobs

it helps if you visualize jobs as services, every worker is a merchant selling his services, you can compete by offering a better service or by doing the same job for less

if the job is easy to do and has a low skill ceiling, the everyone is competing with prices, its the nature of minimum wage jobs (and btw minimum wage is a scam in on itself)

a company will always make use of more skill intensive jobs which is why you as a worker, as a merchant of services, must be flexible enough to improve the quality of the services you provide, acquire more skills, so your payment can improve

ford could get away with improving assembly line jobs simply because, well back then the supply of workers who could do that job wasnt as big as it is today, if he wanted to keep his higher quality service providers, he had to pay a premium, like you and i do when we want better quality anything

1 and 2 are not 0, we have to keep that in mind

1% and 2% is not even inconsequential, but its a percentage that the general population can manage

Go back to a top marginal income tax rate of 91%. That's one of the reasons why we saw a boom in the 1950s, corporations and millionaires couldn't just hoard their money, otherwise they'd be taxed to hell in back, so they had to spend it, they did that by investing in their companies and workers which is improved quality of life for everyone.
