            Landlords do not care about survival. They want to die anyway and lawsuits make no difference. Then even if the tenants win the property they can just countersue and drag it into the mud.
            Yang ideology only makes sense as a rhetorical point, like if landlords ignore the law, then you can kill cops. If you're trying to use it to actually preserve capitalism it will just lead to endless bureaucracy and collapse.

          There are things labor can be applied to which which can provide just as much or more value as a retail worker but aren't profitable because they can't be commodified in a way that produces large profit margins

          Examples:
          >Building public transit infrastructure and employing staff to maintain it
          >Building public housing and employing staff to maintain it
          >Building power plants that don't use fossil fuels
          >Officers in/around public transit that make people feel safe while riding
          >Street/park cleaners
          >Event coordinators for public spaces

          The capitalist versions which are built according to consumer demand are much less efficient and/or lower quality and often rely on government subsidy anyways
          >Gasoline-based cars riding on low-density roads and turnpikes which cost several dollars per mile
          >Luxury condos and single family houses that only middle class or landlords can afford, which raises rents for poor people
          >Natural gas plants where the cost of producing electricity goes up and down radically based on market speculators and global events that may have nothing to do with your country
          >No public safety because free rider problem
          >Buses that clog roads and cause traffic
          >$20 a head pay-to-enter fairs with overpriced food

          The idea that you are going to say the entire society should be profit-based when so much of the negative shit we have right now comes from profit-seeking at other people's expense is insane. We all went through our libertarian phase but when you interact with reality more you will realize how rarely anyone will actually disrupt and improve a profitable system. Most businesses would much rather make a system/product/service worse for you if it marginally increases their profits than to rock the boat.

            That's a bad argument because the dividends would have been much more valuable adjusted for inflation at the time they were paid out than they are when the new shares were issue and also due to the opportunity cost that cash could have been used for, for other investments at the time.

            Yes that's my point, capitalism is absurdly unprofitable.

            No, what I'm saying is that a $1000 dividend payment in 1960 is has the same value adjusted for inflation as $10,000 today. So to say that the cumulative dividends of Exxon only produced $200B which is the same as a 1999 share issue, therefore it was never profitable is very incorrect.

            The cumulative value adjusted for inflation that Exxon would have returned over it's history far exceeds $200B and is more likely at least 10x that much, if not more.

            On top of that, when dividend payments are made to shareholders, they can use that cash to re-invest in another business which compounds the returns on investments.

            Dividends being re-invested in XOM over the past 27 years resulted in a 1.63% additional profit per year for the investor compared to holding cash.

            Yes. Adjusted for growth of the monetary base.
            Spy was 100 in 1980. Monetary base grew 30x so it should be 3000. It's actually 2700 in 2018. With a small bubble now.
            The dividends are inadequate to cover taxes and without taxes all your healthcare holdings would collapse. Capitalism double counts money because healthcare creates gdp by taxing and re spending it.

      I will say this though. I suspect the drug cartel is behind socialism in Latin America. They have close ties to the Mexican government and they might have access to their coffers with which they can use to further spread socialism.
      In Chile they're talking about making a separate area for indigenous people. Well that'd be territory for the drug cartel. Would it be in their best interest for the US to become socialist though?
      Maybe then they'd get access to their coffers as well.

In the us whatever spark would have to be very violent and people getting killed and stuff. But not a lone nut but multiple people targeting people that nobody likes. Say a group stormed black rock and Goldman Sachs and started killing everyone. That would escalate. Or say lolberts started killing people who work in the federal reserve that would escalate too...
        Anyways yeah ubi and rent control yep. Avoid all the nasty stuff and such.

      >I don't understand what the green deal has to do with that.
      Liberal policymakers are out of ideas

      They don't want outright socialist policies but what's happening right now isn't working well so their alternative is to blow up the budget with these expensive & unrealistic quasi-market policies where most of the money gets siphoned off to fraud and business interests and the impacts they have are marginal.

      To sustainably fix the problems in the US you need to build more public transit and public housing and freight infrastructure, electrify those railways, and switch baseload power to hydroelectric and nuclear power.

      Fossil fuels and cars are too resource-intensive to continue to be the default for the majority of the population.

    If there was no money printing everyone's money would be worth more. But there'd also be less investing and less jobs. But it could be done away with.
    Creating jobs works too. I haven't done the math but I think ubi ends up being cheaper anyways. What are you going to make windmills anyways?
