Companies don’t do profit-sharing because they have no pressure or incentive to do so. In other words, they can get away with not profit-sharing so they do.

Co-ops are community projects. They arise out a strong, educated and engaged community. This does not exist in the US at large. That’s why about the only place with co-ops in the whole country is NYC.

From demagogue to whore in record time.

Obama took office during the Great Recession and rebuilt the economy. Biden took office during COVID and rebuilt the economy. (I know you’re going to try to argue with me on that, so I will just say that we recovered faster than any other developed nation before you do.) You’re kinda dense if you think that as soon as a president from another party enters office it would affect the economy so much as these events did…

Propaganda. Lack of education. There’s a reason they want to defund public schools. They’re not doing it out of the goodness of their hearts. :)

Millennials were not told that. Millennials grew up on in the golden era and then it all fell apart on them when they became adults. They were raised on high hopes.

Poverty figures made a record jump of 11 points in the span of six months.

All they needed is to sacrifice the poor. Poverty is now at 53% in the country.

How could he escalate? He is shipping in fucking North Koreans to fight for him because he can’t find enough Russians. Misleading bullshit headline.

Solar is very expensive upfront cost and requires upgraded infrastructure. Cuba is poor and their infrastructure is old as fuck.

Seems like they must have fucked up multiple times. I’m thinking it was probably the nurses that blew the whistle on this and stopped the whole thing.

Kinda get the feeling the for-profit medical system is deeply corrupt.

Kinda. Trichinosis will eat your eyeballs eventually if allowed to progress far enough.

It’s not really making a comment on whether they could have addressed it before it broke the camel’s back either. It’s simply saying this is the last slight I will take.

If you go through life not ever taking any bs, you definitely will not be able to hold a job. Or function in general really.

So they decided to vote for the anti-union capitalist.

They are 20 years old at this point but the original Guild Wars was full of pop culture references.

It’s painfully obvious lemmy is overrun with astroturf. Kamala spam has been oppressive and it’s just cringe most of the time. I refuse to believe that most of the real users here are that cringe. Also, I support Kamala.

This was for 2023 and the job market was hot that year. If you switched jobs you probably got a double digit pay rise, and many people were doing it. That’s what drove the number.

However, the job market is kinda crashing right now in 2024. So I don’t think it’s a trend that will continue.

They were betting he’d win and just blatant cronyism and corruption would ensue.

We don’t need more small businesses. We need less corporations, less ultra wealthy and more healthy middle class. This does not solve anything and a one time tax deduction doesn’t make small businesses sustainable when they have to compete against corpos.

The reason capitalism leads to fascism is that inevitably capitalism will lead to untenable inequality. Injustice will be too great to ignore between the rich and the rest. This will lead to populism.

There are two forms of populism. One will seek to rectify the imbalances caused by capitalism. The other will seek to divert blame to minorities. If there were less blacks, immigrants, gays, Jews, etc. etc. then our society would not be in decay. One is much more useful to the Capitalist and so it will ultimately prevail. The capitalist will devote all resources to crushing the leftist populism up to and including directly funding fascism.
