Without a way too keep them from just raising costs to match, raising min wage has a limited effect. Taxes on profit are more effective. Reinvestment or raises should be deductable, tax the everliving fuck out of gross profit for the rest.

Coriolis fits that vein as well.

They have a high power one for those bastards.

Does anyone actually want to be in Ohio? If something is Ohio, it's that vague uncomfortable ugly failure feeling.

I feel that in my soul. I'm a sysadmin, however it's mostly password resets 🥲

Played since vanilla, took a break in the middle for a while, dragon flight hit the fun of Wow really well compared to the other recent expansions. I'll probably stick around for war within too. They learned a lot of lessons from the mess that was shadow lands.

The return of Ken M. The OG shit poster.

You're probably joking, but this is where I landed. We're no where near ready to join a galactic community.

Ah ok trolling. Nevermind. Move along.

I don't know what I clicked on that. It was exactly what it says.

99%? Are you sure?

That's interesting.... Communism is by definition stateless and without significant hierarchy. I don't think other Tankies would disagree with me there.

The ideological difference is in how we achieve communism. I would really suggest reading 'What is to be Done' by Lenin. It's a real short read but was one of the things that sold me on Marxism-Leninism vs. regular "Communism is a neat idea"

Capitalism will sell you the "you're your own boss, go forth an conquer" all while keeping you under their heel. There is no equality or opportunity there; but even worse is that they will worm their way into any system that does not harshly and consistently fight back against them. Ergo the need for a 'communist' (or rather pursuing communism) state.

That then leads into "Well how does the state go away once we've got communism?" That's a whole 'nother can of worms....
