Its a great system.

For about 10% of the population is great, the next 20-30% pretty good. For the rest is pretty bad. Creating a society of fat, sick, ignorant people.

About 37.1% of people do not work.

So pretty good or up comprises 40% per you, and 62.9% work.

I would not expect those who do not work, and who are not of retirement age, to partake of wealth created by those who do.

No, you are all for workers giving a lot more than what they rightful produce to increase the wealth of a few.

"It Might Not Be Good for America, But It's Good for Us" CEO of CBS

This is just one sign of society decaying. What matters is not what is true or right, it doesn't matter what people need in terms of food, education, health care, or even the economy in general. All what matter is how can rich people get richer.

No, I am for Two Way Employment at Will.

If one does not think he/she makes Fair Market Value, they should be job-hopping in a great market.

My corp has counter offered 5 who quit. In 3 cases, the new corp went higher still. In all 5, we lost the employee.

That is a consequence of wage labor. It is the second main reason why prices keep going up, therefore people need to continually switch to higher paying jobs, a self-defeating cycle.
Did you watch the video? It is just a short example of how money corrupts information, and news. But that's how the whole economy runs. Food is not produced to nurture human life, it is the cheapest products packed with chemicals to increase shelf life and profits. Apartments are build for rich people so they can "invest", and stay empty. While at the same time millions are homeless. Same with any other aspect of society.

It is truly astonishing how people really believe the system is fine.

All the hatred Bernie gets from the left in favor of clinton and other war criminals shows me there is no real leftist movement in this country.

Hopefully real socialism and the principles of mutual aid will come into this country's mainstream and people will finally fight back against capitalism.

You and the other tiny percent of citizens that believe that nonsense will have to keep hoping.
