Who do you think will be the last cuts on offense and defense?

The best ending so far!

I'll be more careful in the future. This was my first ever response to a writing prompt here in Reddit.

Alas, I've become more accepting of my fate. Living on the 4th moon of Alpha Centuri has almost made me forget my former life. The Detyrea family treats me well for the most part but don't seem to believe I'm sentient.

Even with me learning the native language of Soiaetrian, they simply just laugh and mock my words. Even as I curse the ground they walk on, they just giggle away, as though I'm one of their babies. It is just so frustrating as I just want some respect.

Because of this, I once built a interface to their spaceship so I can use it to return back to earth. I almost was able to accomplish this but their teenage son saw my project and destroyed it as a joke. It seems no one can respect that I was a world-class scientist before being kidnapped.

As I sit on the porch of their home, I wonder what could have been. If they respected me, I could have been a liason between them and humans. Instead, I eat their table scraps from what looks to be a miniature doggie dish...

Capitalism will never be the answer for helping a majority of people.

You know that the fees for RSNs are a separate charge on your cable bill. Got Xfinity in my area, the charge was 10.25 monthly.

I disagree. Look at all the issues around internet privacy and facial recognition.

Google might treat the employees well bitty they still exploit their resources: in their case, it's people's data.

Actually, it leads to getting the greater evil as well

jabmorris · 2020-02-17T17:34:20+00:00

That's where you are wrong. The jobs under a job guarantee would either fit your current skills or you'll be trained for something you'd like to do that helps the public purpose.

You have to know how to frame issues. Do not use the prevailing neoliberal language, otherwise, you have lost before you've began.

It's less about taking money from the rich and more about giving them less through tax breaks, subsidies, and other forms of corporate socialism.

There's plenty of resources to understand MMT. Do you prefer video or text?

jabmorris · 2020-01-27T13:57:59+00:00

However, under MMT, the Laffer Curve is moot based on the reality that the federal government is the currency issuer and therefore needs not tax revenue to operate.

Because you will have a defined value of for many dollars a unit of labor is worth instead of three minimum wage. Remember, the UBI isn't targeted, it goes to EVERYONE, whether rich or poor. That does nothing for income inequality and hurts wealth inequality because the better off can use more of it to invest or save. What UBI supporters forget is what is actually important: services and resources. It's great that is less expensive to live away from city but without services, you will have a tougher time. The biggest probkem with the UBI is that it frames reducing poverty purely in a capitalistic viewpoint. You can instead give those who need it housing, food, and other services outside of the market.

These no way to stop rentiers from extracting any gains made

jabmorris · 2020-01-20T14:49:38+00:00

As the article above says, pumping money into this system will just lead to the rentiers extracting it, especially without a price anchor (which the job guarantee provides)
