Looks like the proofs are in for the translated Vietnamese textbook. Looking forward to grabbing the free pdf. https://twitter.com/plbmagazine/status/1534956305739390978

https://twitter.com/primarycatdad/status/1535772821753933824quote:A McDonalds hamburger costs $2.09 at the register. McDonalds internal documents show that the raw materials (patty, bun, etc.) cost $0.34. A McDonalds employee makes $11/hr on average with a shift manager making $15/hr. Shifts are 8 people on average. That means McDonalds pays $77 + $15/hr in wages to a shift (total $92). The average McDonalds makes $2.7 million/year in sales. That is $308/hour, or roughly 147 hamburgers every hour at $2.09. marx would probably write a hundred thread tweet about burgers if he were alive today

I just finished Neil Faulkner's book "A People's History of the Russian Revolution". While I did find it funny how often he quoted Trotsky, I otherwise found it to be a decent overview of the Russian Revolution. One thing I found I wanted to know more about was the Soviets themselves. Is there any decent literature on how they formed and operated, especially in the period leading up to the Revolution - they seem to be a great example of direct democracy and worker power in action.

probably bc Trotskyism is often a punchline in contemporary contexts and ppl probably forget that he was a revolutionary in all the same rooms as Lenin for the decades marching up to the revolutionary victory

Also his History of the Russian Revolution is the most thorough firsthand account of the whole affair and is well-written.

I should pick up Trotsky's book as well I suppose.

He's been cited in several histories I've read, but I haven't read this myself yet. But it sounds like Oskar Anweiler's The Soviets: The Russian Workers, Peasants and Soldiers Councils, 1905-1921 is a good overview.

DirtyRobot posted:the analysis is missing a bunch of fixed capital costs which is why a bunch of pea brain conservatives are in the quote tweets inadvertently agreeing to Marx's major premises (it's just that actually the rate of exploitation and the production of surplus is less than the OP said so it's fine actually) It's also that the surplus value is mostly going to banks and landlords, not so much to the individual franchisee until after a decade or so.

DirtyRobot posted:
Values and vision identify the group. They give the group purpose and direction. Keeping the values and vision is the most essential dimension of leadership. Giving voice to values and vision brings any group its dynamic. Any concerted, effective movement by a group toward the realization of its vision requires the articulation of vision and values in practical, understandable terms. Effective leadership requires the ability to give voice to the values and vision. Virtue is a blend of principle, sensitivity to relationships, and commitment to the common good. Virtue distinguishes Gandhi from Hitler, Martin Luther King, Jr., from Stalin. Virtue distinguishes ethical leadership, which will transform society, from leadership which is merely effective.
