For those right leaning, why do you cuck for the wealthy?

I would argue that corporations are good for the poor.

Hear me out.

Corporations have this mass production advantage and an almost untouchable working formula in their services with the BEST people working to keep their automated service to people at the BEST price possible.

This over production means that goods and services could trickle down (mostly cheap materials like food) could go to literally homeless people with a combination of charity.

I was so surprised that when I was at a homeless shelter, I was expecting crap, but I got high quality food, things like corn flakes, milk, a toothbrush with paste. Now, obviously, it was the charity that made that available, but the actual production was due to corporations. This could also be applied to Union Carbide, US steel, Exon, and US oil. The mass production has indeed been beneficial to the poor.

IE, mass production trickles down further and further. I know, most of you might be thinking, democratic collectivism where robot politicians decide who is entitled to what rations, but on the other hand, poor people really do take corporations for granted in how so much production could create such growth over the last century.

I'd argue they definitely can be in relatively isolated incidents and could be leaps and bounds greater for every income class.

We could debate at what scale they benefit the people and how we use governmental power to provide the BEST for the people, but that is a small government vs large government debate.

It's far too late to fix the dam, I'm afraid.

We're already at a point where the lower/middle classes are being abandoned by businesses in favor of capturing money from the rich and "almost rich". Various supermarkets, for example, have adopted a strategy where all the affordable mass produced junk is replaced with much more expensive "premium" items that would appeal to people living along the shoreline and such..

That's also why drugs get hiked 1000%, and health care expenses keep skyrocketing. More profit in the 10% that has 99% of the wealth, even if that bottom 90% can no longer afford to give you their money (Which is pocket change in comparison.)

However, overall, you make a very fair, realistic, and unfortunate, point.

We live in a world where it is actually cheaper and more cost-effective to be rich. If that doesn't show how broken things are, I don't know what else does.

I mostly agree that it's too late to fix, but I operate on a principal of "do as you'd do in a perfect world," so I still argue it could and should be strived for: that perfect balance of democracy, socialism, incredibly moderate authoritarianism, and a focus on what 'freedom' can be, the kind of freedom where everyone can do as they please as long as it doesn't disrupt everyone else's freedom. I know, though, it's a pipe dream and likely unachievable.

The corporations are one of the main reasons that there's such a huge inequality divide (and thus so many homeless people) in the first place, you plum. Giving a bit of free food away should be a given, considering everything else they've done.

The inequality divide is a byproduct. Thatcher made the point that the poorest under a capitalist system will ultimately live better lives than under a socialist system. For example, rednecks in the 80s lived better lives than eastern europeans in the 80s.

I made the anecdote of charity, but it's trickle down economics, bro.

Being pissed on from a great height is preferable to getting shat on from a great height, but personally I'd just rather not get pissed on or shat on at all. I'm certainly not going to wave up to the suit with his knob out pissing on me and say "Well done bro, thanks for saving me from getting shat on! Top bloke! Capitalism for the win!"

Your own lack of social mobility combined with what could be described as your "cucking" for big business of late is an interesting element to this, though, so at least there's that.

Why is Foxsteak gone?

Dunno. I think Ziggy is next, though. Posting a thread promoting scientific racism is probably gonna net the dude a ban.

Foxsteak was a known sock. If they're a still-recent permaban, then their shelf-life is generally pretty short.

Oh really? Who was Foxsteak?

Yeah, I'd imagine so. That's why I figure Supra might be on the chopping block, seeing as he was banned, like, a few weeks ago and has been shit-stirring. Who knows, though?

Is Ziggy supposed to be Supra/TI? See I initially thought that but he seems a lot more extreme than anything that TI said in the past.

I thought Ziggy himself said the mods were going to allow him to return (as he is a sock) as long as he didn't promote conflict on here. Seems he's already violated the terms.

No, it's another sock of 'Ziggystardust', the casual racist guy.

Yeah, looks like it. That thread was awful too. Whatever. Ultimately, it's obviously their decision.

I don't trust the republicans either when it comes to protecting personal liberty, but the idea that big government is just some republican boogieman is a joke.

I was wondering why a person so racist, who used to be engaged to an Arab Muslim woman, would be making all those posts on reddit.

My bad, TI. Please forgive me for confusing you with Ziggy.

Foxsteak was banned for racist shit.

"Black people are monkeys and whites are neanderthals.

I mean, this is hardly knew, but now Harvard can prove it with science. #americaneducation

Now prove the east asians have down syndrome."

And you don't think an all purpose offense statement like that was meant facetiously? I mean what race was he trying to promote the superiority or inferiority of?
