(10,232 posts)Notice she never answered the question. "Heres the Green New Deal, heres the guarantee of a job, and think, yeah, thats what I want, its that simple. What do you say to those people?
The question was NOT about being given something it was about a guaranteed JOB. A job has to be worked. Unlike this little princess who knows nothing about working a real job, most people don't get to sit on their surgically enhanced butts when they get a job. Those jobs are NOT free money like she got when she was born. Those jobs have to be worked satisfactorily and a boss of some kind has to approve of what they do. It's not the end all and be all just to be given a f*cking crappy job. You still have to work. Work, labor is a concept lazy rich white people want you to forget. Because they make their wealth off of NOT paying you what you are worth. They want the profits from your labor. No One in a capitalistic economy is paid what they are worth.
So she successfully turned the discussion away from providing jobs to all citizens to giving away free stuff or minimum wage. But isn't that the implied guarantee in capitalism? We let you rich bastards keep the profits from our labor but you have to give everyone a job? True they don't pay for the true value of that labor but they should at least have enough labor to go around. But they don't and they are so much more rich for it and you are so much more poor for it.
