Krieg ist urkapitalistisch. Eine kleine Gruppe von Investoren in Rüstung profitieren massiv, daher lohnt sich das Geschäft, denn die entstehenden Schäden an Mensch, Unwelt und Klima trägt wie immer nicht der Profiteur, sondern die Bevölkerung.

Do you think the #system is here to #serve us ?

(the people behind "the system" don't keep us just-about-alive just because we make THEM mass profits?)

Further below I'd like you to clarify if you disagree:

- People that don't make #bosses #profit can simply #die and hardly anyone high up would #care

- We would be dead if we didn't serve as #profit / serve our #body to them.

- The #mind + what you think can take a hike.

“Tor’s Dingledine warns that #Nym’s reliance on demand for its #blockchain and higher prices for its token, as its #VPN funding mechanism is risky.

“There are some downsides to the capitalist-based approach,” says Dingledore. “One of the big ones is, why people participate in the first place. Is the primary goal #UserSafety or profit? If it's #profit, you will put your relay in the cheapest possible place.”

A quotation from The Bible

The man who loves gold will not be reckoned virtuous,
   the man who chases after profit will be caught out by it.
Many have gone to their ruin for the sake of gold,
   though their destruction stared them in the face;
it is a snare for those who sacrifice to it,
   and every fool will be caught in it.
   
Ὁ ἀγαπῶν χρυσίον οὐ δικαιωθήσεται,
   καὶ ὁ διώκων διάφορα ἐν αὐτοῖς πλανηθήσεται.
πολλοὶ ἐδόθησαν εἰς πτῶμα χάριν χρυσίου,
   καὶ ἐγενήθη ἡ ἀπώλεια αὐτῶν κατὰ πρόσωπον αὐτῶν.
ξύλον προσκόμματός ἐστιν τοῖς ἐνθουσιάζουσιν αὐτῷ,
   καὶ πᾶς ἄφρων ἁλώσεται ἐν αὐτῷ.

Weird idea to stop #waste, #fraud, and, #abuse of #taxpayer #money.

If a #corporation's #employees qualify for #government #assistance, the corporation is required to #reimburse the assistance #program for #benefits disbursed, plus an additional percentage to cover the #cost of overhead and collection of money owed.

This would apply to employees working 30+ hours/week or who work any number of hours while holding multiple jobs.

I love my neighbors, but my #tax dollars should not be subsidizing #corporate #profit.

If you have a licence (I don’t but my family do, so I have only just seen it), then this really worth watching. Companies such as Monsanto have polluted and killed for profit for many years. Governments across the world have condoned the behaviour or even covered it up.

From petrochemical companies (climate change) to other chemical manufacturers we allow them to kill us.

It's well known by both sides of the spectrum in #politics, that the #US has a de-facto ruling #oligarchy in its tech and financial sectors despite all the democratic claims. An oligarchy able to control the political system, its legislation and the application of justice through their sheer possession of #money. It's control over public #institutions is undisputed... to the extent that, in daily practice, it is bound by no legislation, no intellectual #property. It embodies the very definition and practice of #anarchocapitalism, just not so formally stated as to explicitly reject the rule of #law. Appearances must be kept, but only to a certain extent.

#LatinAmerica has its own, endemic, oligarchy problem too; not coming out of its local tech sector, but from the #drugs dealing, human #trafficking, #smuggling, #prostitution, and murder-by-contract businesses instead. Because that is what they truly are: #businesses... organizations conducting particular forms of #trade, for the sake of personal #profit. Those oligarchs, just like its american counterparts, share the exact same anarchocapitalist view that the law shouldn't restrict the freedom to do business of any sort. Even if that business ends up with a couple of bullets inside the cranium of some 18 year old kid. Accidents can always happen at the job.

The enterprise in itself always had a direct link to organized #crime, not the least because of the identical nature of their entrepreneurial activity. And that, by necessity, means that very similar practices must take place in each. It's truly not surprising that every "fully legally compliant" #enterprise is, behind closed doors, hiding plenty of illegal practices within... from #taxevasion thanks to carefully selected international banks and falsified accounting records, to financial #fraud designed to deceive investors and shareholders.

In certain moments, when this symmetry becomes specially obvious, one side and the other can truly and visibly overlap. This is how a sizable group of american business men made their initial fortunes trafficking alcohol during times of #prohibition, in the 20s and 30s, only to become the established entrepreneurial class of later years. Now, the direct successors of that group of oligarchs are in Silicon Valley at the moment, busy at the task of physically destroying the local and global environment, along with millions of old and out of print books for AI training purposes. The law, as we can imagine, has nothing to say about that.

Indem auch in Deutschland das Gemeingut Grundwasser von wenigen Konzernen billig „privatisiert“ und teuer weiterverkauft wird, trägt auch hier der Konzern-Fossilismus zu Überreichtum weniger & der Not vieler bei.

„Während die Flüsse austrocknen und die Grundwasserspiegel sinken, zapfen Konzerne Grundwasser oft fast kostenlos an. Ein Streit um eine der wertvollsten Ressourcen der Welt.“ (2/2)

The reason I think #MatriarchalCommunism is the next (or first!?) truly civilized "phase" (if we survive this) is because the rise of primative #accumulation and #capitalism, including the #enclosures of #public #land transfomed into #private, the development of #wage #labor following the #crisis of european “need” for expanding #markets and labor, and the witch trials and murders (10s of thousands of basic #sisters, daughters, and #grandmothers) created or deepened (while adding 100% incrs of intensity of #misogyny) the line between men/male and women/female (less than), while hitherto, communities included #identities and #labor performed independently or in #untraditional #families.
Previous to “Oh shit the world is round!” the #complementary #division of labor for #families in the structure meant women's #work was valued, #compensated with #trade and #respect. #Euro-Colonialist states and the church’s (both #Protestant and #Catholic) #insatiable #desire for #freelabor and #profit purposefully created #genders #races and #childabuse. Before, there were territories and natural boundaries. after the violent and terrifying rise of #privateproperty in #Europe they demanded heirarchies binaries to separate who profits from who labors and who slaves

A quotation from Bastiat

At least let no one argue that, because an abuse cannot be suppressed without injuring those who profit from it, the fact that it has existed for a time gives it the right to last forever.
 
[À moins qu’on ne prétende que, parce qu’un abus ne peut être détruit sans froisser ceux qui en profitent, il suffit qu’il existe un moment pour qu’il doive durer toujours.]

Frédéric Bastiat (1801-1850) French philosopher, economist, politician
Economic Sophisms [Sophismes Économiques], 1st Series, ch. 20 “Human Labor, National Labor [Travail Humain, Travail National]” (1845) [tr. Goddard (1964)]

If you, as a person owning and operating a business, manage to bankrupt said business in an industry where the common, accepted business model is "People walk in and give you their money, and hope that you give some of it back when they leave" [1], then you are not a business person.

You are a clown with capital.

[1] Casinos have always operated on this model. They tend to be quite profitable.
