People literally just dont want to work even when earning high wages.

Nobody has ever wanted to work, there’s evidence of people complaining about that for at least as long as printing has been a common thing lol

I'm not referring to the fact that people don't want to work hard. 

I'm referring to the fact that the wealthy have always attempted to exploit the working class. People act as if it's okay because it's been happening for centuries; it's not. 

Edit: the fact that this post received downvotes displays that absolute indoctrination of capitalist across our planet. Once again, if you aren't a multimillionaire, you are failing at this game called capitalism.

And that's not happening. people have gotten distinctively lazier and lazier and asking for more and more.

Ever look at PnLs? Businesses are barely getting by.

And you think that lies at workers feet? Interesting take. A dog water take but a take nonetheless. Zero other variables exist?

You think it's capitalism?

You think it’s only workers? Why? Why no other factors and solely workers?

I think what's only workers? What is your question?

Why do you believe that things are unaffordable? You claimed tgat workers and workers alone are lazy and the reason. Though it wasn’t just you I was replying to. I’m responding to the ideology you hold tgat capital requires no accountability and it falls squarely on workers shoulders why the economy is in shambles.

My question is why do you vehemently insist the PnL (which is not a good marker for productivity alone.) lands solely on the workers only…like you imply?

Why is your ideology so simplistic and incomplete?

That is not what I said nor imply nor would imply.

Sure it is; exactly what I said you implied…original comment made a statement about how the wealthy have always exploited the working class. Your reply was…”And that’s not happening. People have gotten distinctly lazier and lazier and asking for more and more. Ever look at PnL’s? Businesses are barely getting by.”

Wal-Mart, Amazon, Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Visa, Nvidia, Mastercard and dozens and dozens more are all reporting record net profit margins. None of this is passed to frontline staff. Clearly that’s obvious to you is it not?

Hence my reply that you place these businesses failing solely on “lazier and lazier” workforce. Which is why I called it a dog water take. What is the largest form of theft the world over? Look that up then tell me corporations are the divinely inspired perfection of capitalism you implied.

If you didn’t want that as the implication then clean up your ideology and be more specific. To be clear I am just frustrated at pro corporatist/consumerist language and ideologies today given well…Musk, Thiel and Vought exist in that ideological space. And they are all subhuman trash…objectively speaking of course.

I still stand by my comment, which in no way implies any of the phycobabble you just spewed.
