The beheading are awesome too, but they don't let you get a good look. If they did it in a stadium they could make some nice Jihad money off tourists.

All the other stuff the keep to them self too. It's like they don't care about Tourism at all.

They're a staunchly anti-capitalist people. I think that's why the far-left loves them so much.

Socialism does nothing but destroy the human spirit, when there is no greatness to strive for. Socio-capitalism, where people's livelihood is guaranteed and there is greatness to strive for, is alright by me.

We've seen what pure socialism does already, keeps the government living the good life, and everyone else is peasant farmers driving LADAs for 60 years.

Capitalism does nothing but destroy the human spirit, when the only definition of greatness is wealth.

How does a society guarantee people's livelihoods?

[–]tjandearl [スコア非表示]  (4子コメント)

Enough social safety nets that those who don't want to be homeless and get a job and succeed can. You can't save everyone, there's even homeless issues in nations where it's considered impossible. Those people who end up that way are generally very sick mentally, and could do better with the help they need.

I think reforming and fixing the high costs of what we have already is a good avenue. We shouldn't create and sustain leeches, but bad luck happens, we should help those who are willing to help themselves when things turn to shit.

It's why the US needs Sanatoriums either opened back up or new ones built.

There seems to be a serious disconnect with a fair amount of people that the actual homeless are mentally ill. We used to lock them up in "nut houses" where they received care for a reason.

Automation and the next energy revolution are going to change the ball game for the west. But there are going to be some hard times first. Especially when McDonald's and the other fast food chains automate most of their kitchens.

[–]8cr13mov [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Automation will happen sooner if we increase the minimum wage. If the price of hiring a human increases while the price of an ordering terminal falls, it's only natural for businesses to make that switch. Then those cashiers become the state's problem.

You know that most of those places closed down for being experimental nightmares where the general consensus was "if he's not moving or making noise, he's good," right?

[–]Dwarf_Vader [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Automated production gives more output with less labor. I don't know about now - in the future it'll definitely be a possibility without any drawbacks.

[–]whitemales [スコア非表示]  (24子コメント)

you sound like a dumb piece of shit. probably poor

[–]tjandearl [スコア非表示]  (23子コメント)

Economy is killing it TBH fam.

I think guaranteed healthcare and affordable school to help kids get out of the poverty cycle is important. It's not the kid's fault their parents are pieces of shit, if they want to strive for greatness let them.

I just want to fix why healthcare is so expensive before we back up the dumptruck of cash to hospital doors, and the same with colleges. And I certainly don't want to pay for kids to go to school to get women's studies and liberal arts degrees and come out brainwashed bernie bots saddled in massive debt screaming for soviet america. You want free school, go for an in-demand job field, otherwise it's a luxury you need to pay for.

Makes the most sense- the people downvoting this are probably part of the majority crowd of 4chan who are legitimately racist, retarded, and think the whole extreme socialism thing isn't ironic

[–]hydrogenc4r [スコア非表示]  (5子コメント)

Jesus christ Americans actually think like this

[–]Dark_Shroud [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Maybe you should look into some of the problem currently happening at American Universities. Not to mention the college text book scams.

I can also tell you that poor Americans can also go to their local community college for pretty low costs. Not counting the costs of books depending on the class.

I say this as someone who was actually was told by the administrator that I should apply to work at my college teaching some of the tech courses because I was good at them and explaining the materials to others. Then the school restructured the entire department and I noped the hell out.

[–]T_D707 [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

That's a sick thing to say and all, but no one is refuting his points

[–]twdwasokay [スコア非表示]  (14子コメント)

college is a luxury

Hahahahaha try to find a well paying job that doesn't require any college degrees.

[–]RevDrStrangelove [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

I've got a job that pays great and I love it. It doesn't require college but it does require education, on the job training and cojones that clank.

[–]tjandearl [スコア非表示]  (4子コメント)

College is a luxury when you are learning for learning's sake. Plenty of people did that and now work at starbucks. College or appropriate training for a job is a necessity, and we should treat it as such. All i'm sayin.

[–]Alexanderdaawesome [スコア非表示]  (3子コメント)

As someone getting a degree in a high paying field, NO! college should NOT be treated like training, that is not what creates innovative people, whether it is socially or technologically. I think the solution is the social degrees should up the scale of difficulty, put some standards that make the degree harder to obtain, so you dont have jackasses walking around feeling smart because "muh bachelors degree in women study". If everybody has a degree, nobody has a degree.

[–]tjandearl [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

Giving people who need it to attain middle class wealth and a good standard of living is fine. Especially those starting at disadvantage. You may see over-training in some fields, but fields saturate and new ones take their place all the time.

Your field and higher studies wouldn't be threatened. They're already difficult to attain and highly competitive. Computer Science courses still see 60% attrition rates in the first year of studies relating to computer science and they're one of the most highly subsidized courses in colleges today.

Capitalism drives innovation. It's why so many people are thinking "I got a great idea for an app, let's build it!"

We can have the highest standard of living again, we just need to fix the really bad trade deals we have with the rest of the world. The one think I agree with trump on is, we exported all those jobs to Mexico, and didn't even raise their standard of living in that country. U.S. companies just use them for cheap labor and that's No Bueno, no matter how you slice it.

[–]Alexanderdaawesome [スコア非表示]  (1子コメント)

That is why I think the "difficult to attain" is important. there should be a point where weaker students get flushed out, it keeps the value of the degree at a higher relative amount. When it comes to social degrees, we should have a standard that pumps out the proper amount of qualified people for teaching, services, what have you. There is some holes in this argument, but I think it solves more problems than it creates.

[–]tjandearl [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

I can agree with that. I would like schools to start pushing kids towards their natural talents younger, so they know what they want to go to school for. So many kids in computer science blowing boat loads of money who failed Algebra I at least once.

I would honestly be happy if we gave student loans the same risk analysis as mortgages and other loans get. Sending a kid that is bad at math, just has 0 natural tallent in it, to college for a math degree is a bad investment.

Welding, lineman, construction, and even holding a stop sign all pay very well.

[–]morphoyle [スコア非表示]  (4子コメント)

There are 100s of trades that don't require a college degree and are lucrative.

[–]hispanica316 [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

Don't they still require a technical degree, and/ or certifications? Don't make it seem you can just waltz in and get a job.

[–]oorque [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Literally the concept of apprenticeship. Trades are built around the idea of training new workers.

[–]Illusory_superiority [スコア非表示]  (1子コメント)

I could not have done better myself. You made me spill my wine all over the desk.

I hope one day I'll be as good as you.

Thank you.

[–]tjandearl [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

I cannot give myself too much credit. I have so much credit to give to the ex-soviets who spoke out of the dangers of socialism.

I believe strongly in the tenants America was founded on. It's a good system if you do your duty as a citizen and make an educated vote to at least the federal level.

It takes 20 mintues to go on the congress website, look at how your representative and senator voted for bills for the past 4-8 years, and decide if you need him to toss-off or not. People don't do this and it makes me immensely sad, and scared. They pull a straight ticket, which is why we have lifetime reps.

Socialism kills the spirit with its inherent materialism as well. Nothing worth living for but production, so you can live in a commieblock and farm the communal land? To live and die for what? Religious fundamentalists often can get behind many of socialists tenets, but its not so degrading to the human spirit because there is a cause (the arabic idea of struggle, or jihad, in its classical meaning). I'm not saying it's great, but just noting that that is why Iran for instance is in some ways ideologically similar to socialist states. The Jews have Tzadakah, and the Muslims Sadaqah, and they both pay for kitchens and beds so the poorest don't die in the streets. They're religious fundamentals and boil down to redistribution of wealth. European churches used to be the same. I'll take any traditional religious society over communism though.
