just read someone saying that economically, it's the earthquake right now, and the tsunami will come later...
- it's a fucking bullshit bennn, the economy is live and kicking - people that are still working - socially necessary labor is the economy. this just exposes thekingsteven
- lie that is the service economy, if your work has dried up right now and you don't have money, its sitting in some billionare's bank accountkingsteven
- it's there because automation has removed the need for your labor and the excess siphoned by gatekeepers of the technology that should have liberated uskingsteven
- @ks the economy is alive and kicking unless it's in a vault? I think Bennn's point was that economic fallout is going to be worse than the sting of a week off.MrAbominable
- you're referring to the imaginary economy MrA. 'unskilled' frontline workers are holding the world together, exposing the lie. slowly people are waking upkingsteven
- we can end this in one of two ways: mass austerity + poverty or mass nationalisation + universal income. the tsunami is only as imaginary as the dollar.kingsteven
- @ks if i understand your position: you're saying the tsunami is already here. and more tsunami is just what the fish call 'ocean'.MrAbominable
- It's all priced in!shapesalad

- You make excellent points. But as a small business owner, I identify as petty bourgeois. Your words are counter to my class interests, therefore are anathema.Khurram
- khurram sir, i am not a socialist but an anarchist and as so my views are more libertarian than the leader of the free world, the state shall only exist tokingsteven
- protect the venerable, and oversee the collectivisation of the industries of necessary labour. the service economy would remain for our entertainmentkingsteven
- unable to interfere, both the creation of new products, services and public investment would be encouraged with strict regulationkingsteven
- ^ i mean regulation of the markets/ profits and economic models. not products btw. and i'd probably regulate housing and the rental market - just for the kicks.kingsteven
- I was kinda being sarcastic. I'm a champagne socialist! (or cocaine communist, woteva you prefer).Khurram
- i mean, i'm not actually running for president either... besides i'm already head of state for the nation of steven'skingsteven
