While the whole, "gently caress this I'm moving to Canada" movement is hilarious- telling people to wait until they get marginalized or brutalized before they're allowed to immigrate is myopic as gently caress.

Lol pretty much Anyway as I said I already have EU citizenship so the cost and trouble for me to move there from here is about the same as it would be for me to move to another state within the USA. I have months to find a job wherever I go and it can basically be any convenience store gas station job even. I can even vote.  Not quite there yet I guess but seems like the USA is on a downward spiral. I'll *have* to move at some point given how rents are being jacked up every year. Very bourgie of me to not be able to afford to live in my community anymore, I know. Trust me I'd rather stay where I am but apparently my landlord needs more productive serfs.

 felt bad about not posting an image in the capitalism.png thread again, so here is about as capitalism.png as it gets. this is milk being dumped by the thousands of gallons, the literal tons. this is what happens when milk is "overproduced", meaning, more of it is produced than can be sold at an acceptable rate of profit. this is also regularly done with grain and other staples when the market has reached a "glut". it is also worth considering that about 3 million children die every year due to starvation and malnutrition, according to UNICEF estimates. we produce more than enough food to nourish every one of them. at no point in the past few decades has starvation been a matter of material shortage. this is one of the things that angers me the most about capitalism. it is murder on an unimagineable scale, just as sure as a knife to the throat or a bullet to the brain.

If only there was a way to refine the milk fat into an oil that could be used as a fuel. All that excess milk could probably knock a couple bucks off the price of a cruise ship ticket.

I'm saddened that no productive use (besides the obvious FEED THE POOR) has been found for such overproduced product. Like the above poster asked, can't we do something with that excess? What the gently caress?

I was being facetions, but it could be turned into cheese which could keep for quite a while, and feed people and stuff. In reality, most of the world is lactose intolerant, and cows are horrible in terms of energy input. The best thing we could do is eat the cows and stop making so much milk

Yeah, I’m going to be working on this in the coming years. I have an actual plan and timeline for my eventual exodus from the US. This isn’t some choice I am making lightly, I will have to leave my family and friends behind. But I want this, it’s been a goal of mine for years now.
