Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

(unless you won the birth lottery, of course)

Birth lottery does help you, but it is not necessary. I know a lot of people who were very poor in high school, now they have a lot of money and they are not even 40.

This sentiment of "I need to be a better worker, or else I will be homeless" is great for a profit based system like your country currently has. But the only reason you state it's also good for you because you can't imagine any alternative being better currently.

"Go to work today, or you will lose your home" is not how you make happier people. it's how you make more efficient workers for a more profitable business.

But baby step wise theoretically, try to imagine a life where your basic needs are met and you work to improve the life for you and your family. Capitalism and communism still run the world, but you can put in effort to give your kids more and give yourself and your family a better life than the bare minimums.

And before you say this is impossible. it already exists rudimentarily. We have plenty of reserves in Canada where you can stay on the reserve and collect money from the government and have a home and necessities given to you because Canada took the land from your people and it's owed to your people etc. But people still
make the active decision to leave the reserve where their income and free homes and basic needs are met, to earn more for themselves and their families and pursue careers and education around the world. Not because they will die or be homeless if they don't.
Because they have the ambition to earn more than the free minimums they and their kids are given.

you're missing the true scope of this. They were born in your country, so they already won the birth lottery and have massive advantages over most of the human beings born on the planet etc

UBI is not the only way. It is the easiest and fastest.

Some people win capitalism, 99.9999% don't.

It is a winnable game. (It requires a lot of work, to get there, physical, or mental(Or extreme luck)(Or insider trading))

There are 197 countries in the world, and over 190 countries are capitalist.
(or pretend to be)

Did Eiryl out himself as a socialist? Lol

If there's no nationalism based on "others stealing our jobs" there's no need for borders.

Overly simplified, you wouldn't understand or listen to any more depth than that.
(you'll probably bring up religion and/or terrorists, completely missing the point, which is exactly why I said you won't understand)
((spoiler, it's the same answer))

(FYI, In my country rich people actually do all kinds of things to sneak into the US so their kids can get a US passport and move to the US. That's how valuable it is to "live in the US" for us.)

(Which shows how important the borders are, ironically!)

America is not the only capitalist country.

The global differences. I never desired or imagined I would move to the USA and was happy thriving and had even bought a home with family. Exhausted and overworked, but still. thats all countries lol

So moving to the country where cancer is a bankruptcy risk and death instead of covered treatment from taxes was unthinkable.

I am to understand that jailing people for talking about things that doesnt align with govt policies is a good thing?

That tweet doesn't even mention government policies. She's been arrested for being a piece of ***and spreading blatant misinformation in an attempt to rile up racist violence. And yes, that's a good thing. *** you and anyone else that defends this *** awful behaviour.

The capitalist class want no one to come in and take it.

It's already 2024 and people still talk about "capitalist class" as if it's 1860 or something.....

If you ever put your money in stock market, real estate, bonds, crypto currency or 401k or retirement account of any kind, you are a "captalist class".

If you ever run a business, such as a restaurant or local grocery store, you are a "captalist class".

If you ever publish books, music, art, or a software and sell them for money, you are a "captalist class".

Pretty sure that's higher than 99.999% of people in 2024.

"Ali Al-Shakati was the suspect, he was an asylum seeker who came to the UK by boat last year and was on an MI6 watch list. If this is true, then all hell is about to break loose."

Thats adorbs you believe that
