State handouts for all? Europe set to pilot universal basic incomes

We have food stamps and welfare too.

I say let small countries like Switzerland experiment with the concept and if it doesn't fukk up their country, we can import it, scale it up and see if it works here.

Is this steaming pile what passes for an intellectual argument around here these days....WOW..

workers build literally every man-made thing in the world. Labor does that, not capital

man makes everything MAN MADE....no shyt ..you forgot something dumbass..INTELLECTUAL CAPITAL...someone has to have an idea first...you can have all the labor you want but its just a bunch of people standing around until someone comes up with a plan and someone invests in him...and capitalism rewards those people better than the labor because their contribution is bigger which is why capitalism works

Socialism's inability to reward innovation and risk is another reason why it never works

capital.. is nothing but dead labor anyway

"dead labor"How does labor die...

but is controlled by an exploiter class]

" Exploiter class" LMAOOOOO...most of the "capital" running through the system is controlled by small investors,city/county governments,Individuals,pension funds,401ks and such...


Heres an idea..since labor is all you need why dont you take your happy ass to a North korean labor camp and build some shyt and show the world how far one can get without capital and an "exploiter class"

when you rail against theory derived from Capital but didn't catch a pretty significant concept in it

I thought I actually said that too.
I spent like 30 secs trying to figure out how to rationalize it.

So European Anglos are going to get reparations before descendents of American slaves? That's what I processed. I know it's not reparations in definition but will serve a similar purpose.
