Yinlock posted:regulation is good Being good in theory does not mean it is a realistic solution. It cannot be regulated because you are keeping the very aristocracy you are constraining intact and in full control over society. It has failed, it continues to fail, and it always will fail because you are not changing the power relations in society in any meaningful or sustainable way.

Grondoth posted:You're wrong, that's pretty much the startup guru's answer to any poverty. It is pretty funny. This is basically the last critical period where we're going to have the excess energy to invest in anything, and if our leaders weren't smooth brained Reaganites then the entire economy would be in the midst of a massive mobilization to construct as much renewable and nuclear energy sources as possible. It would be a enormous diversion of resources and manpower that would put WW2 to shame. Instead we're busy trying to funnel poo poo into the tech bubble while we sleepwalk over the cliff.

coding costing a lot of money is the largest stranglehold on rich people's capital. paying engineers is the most expensive part of almost every major company. you pay people in wv who live at home to code, congrats, the wealth of every tech shareholder just went up. there's a reason everyone's slamming the "GET A STEM DEGREE" button on the internet and that's because we're looking at a career that is going to pay 40 grand in about 10 years on purpose.

I have a great jobs program that will provide meaningful work and also provide me the ability to escape disgusting earth capitalism and join glorious, pure full space communism. Make a space pioneer corps and subsidize families to go into space forever.

Concerned Citizen posted:Well any CCC would have a training aspect to it since most modern construction requires skilled labor. not that skilled the real problem is that construction has been automated pretty heavily, drastically reducing the amount of manpower required. back in the 30s, digging a ditch meant putting a bunch of people to work with shovels. today it means one guy driving some heavy machinery. in FDR's time, bulldozers had only just been invented, and more complicated machines like backhoes were still decades away anime was right posted:coding costing a lot of money is the largest stranglehold on rich people's capital. paying engineers is the most expensive part of almost every major company. you pay people in wv who live at home to code, congrats, the wealth of every tech shareholder just went up. it's already like this outside of major cities back down south, the best entry-level programming job I had was $12/hr 1099 work that abruptly vanished without telling anyone or paying out the final paycheck when investor storytime stopped bringing in the money. and that was better than the previous programming jobs the primary motivator behind my move to a big city was that outside of the big tech hubs, there's more experienced programmers than there are programming jobs, so anyone who doesn't already have a few years experience can eat poo poo

I just realized that the first thing Tim Kaine mentions in the "better skills" part of that op ed is "innovative K-12" education which is an obvious code for charter schools the democrats' plan to improve employment in America starts with.... union busting

Yinlock posted:actually that's exactly what regulation is Strange. I thought corporate power surged under the ostensibly regulated capitalist order and we are experiencing a wholesale reversal of those regulations which we are powerless to stop because the left was annihilated and anyone remaining was in the service of capital. Must be mistaken. In your dimension is the work primarily organized by worker cooperatives or some other kind of system?

Raskolnikov38 posted:do people that have used the job training programs the democrats create when they can actually exist yes and at best you're looking at starting out all over again in an entry level job and that's assuming you somehow beat the rampant ageism in hiring practices on top of it as an older person who at one point had stable income in a community where such a thing is a rarity you're more likely to be the primary care provider for either an elderly parent or child and increasingly grand and sometimes great-grandchildren, so good luck working all that into your busy schedule

Yinlock posted:lol if you think this is or was even close to regulated I'm saying regulation is impossible, because you are restricting the privileges of powerful people who both exist and have the means to reverse them, and then succeed. Looking at reality should make this crystal clear, reading history of attempts to curb elite power without making structural changes (that makes them no longer elites- this would be equivalent to destroying capitalism itself) are almost always miserable failures and should make this clear beyond any shadow of a doubt.

Do that instead and avoid the forever war you will eventually lose as capitalist elites bolstered by automation resort to outright eliminationism.
