Quote from: RE on Sep 28, 2024, 03:41 PMYou're a Commodity in the sense you are something the capitalist buys to run his bizness.We weren't discussing what K-Dog and I are in a capitalist system, but the Marxist one.
Quote from: REYou and Kdog are CNC machines in your respective professions.So what are we called in Marxist/Communism systems? And does being whatever THAT might be allow us to keep our stuff?
Quote from: RECommunist biznesses need Tools also, including expensive ones. A communist engineer makes more than a communist roofer. However, Communist Roofers make enough to have a decent apartment.So K-Dog would lose his million dollar home and luxury cars and live in a small apartment in a concrete tower of some sort, as his current value to the system is as paid labor in a retail store, and I might get a bigger apartment, better food and get to to keep a car? Sounds equitable to me! Seems a bit against K-Dogs best interest though, advocating for a system that would place his value about one step above yours.
