Wut? How about if you don’t like your job find one that you do like and quit pissing and moaning because no one cares?

Correct. Find a job you like or go live under a bridge, or in San Fransisco where the whole city is your toilet.

I have to say, I have employees who are part of solutions, not problems. Why, because the ones who are all about problems I ditch like a hot potato.
People need to learn they are not as all important as they think they are nor is their private agenda relevant.
Do your job. Do it well. Do what you agreed to be paid to do. Learn and grow. Become an asset and you’ll be rewarded.
If you work for a jerk, so be it. Take your skills to someone who appreciates them. Business owners who are jerks aren’t in it for the long haul. Good business owners know their most precious asset is their employees.
What a lot of these people think is it should be handed to them on a silver platter. That isn’t the way it works. It takes time to build a reputation.
Jeeze, it took me 20 plus years and it still requires a ton of blood, sweat and tears.

Fractional reserve banking is only a part of the fraudulent banking system.
(It works like this. Somebody with $1000 lends money to ten people, $1000 each, and collects interest from all of them.)

It takes little money to start a business
Started my business as a sole proprietor and expanded it to 7 employees and dumped the employees with the costs. Now i’m a sole proprietor work part time and make more than most people in years.
It takes things you don’t have
People skills
Dedication
A desire to succeed
A talent/business plan
You will never succeed with your attitude
p.s. no school debt is easy when you pay as you go. Takes longer but you are not saddled with debt

People just don’t get it
Life is about choices
Chose well and you may be rewarded
But some people lead a failed life and blame everyone else for their choices
Wearing belligerence and a hateful attitude like a badge of honor is a recipe for a lifetime of loneliness and failure.

As a sole proprietor I pay approximately 50% of earnings in taxes
25% for estimated federal income tax
5% state tax
About 15% for SS/Medicare
I set aside 5% for contingency
The incentive the government gives us and why I work part time
But in the end I still make more than most, it’s what capitalism is all about

Totally agree…survival is also a driving force

Just out of curiosity what type of business do you run?
You can get a decent pooper scooper for $15. People all over your town will pay good money not to have to pick up after their dogs. You can get $15-25 per dog, and it takes all of 10 minutes to do. Do 10 yards a day and you’d make multiples more than any of your friends who flip burgers or wait on tables.
Just saying…
Seems to me the question of “work” as addressed this thread transcends any economic system. If you were the only person on an uncharted island, there would be no economic system at all. Yet you would still work. (Or die.)
So why would you work?

Well that’s a relative term now isn’t it? A little money to you could be a lot of money to me. Somehow I doubt your claims because you provide so few details that you’re probably just blowing smoke out of your ass.
Doubt all you want.
When you sell professional labor, mine, it takes little to start up a company.
You need enough to live on for a year if you have no reputation which I do. I only work for a select few companies as I laid off the workers that worked for me. It became to painful traveling and keeping people busy not to mention the taxes required with employees.
As far as smoke out of an ass, that would be a telltale sign of a regressive liberal that is butt hurt and cannot make it in life.
I suggest you not start a business as you would never make it with your attitude, you lack of understanding of business and how a small business functions.
p.s. If you do start a business be prepared to pay your employees and have nothing left over for yourself as it happens. But you have no worries there as you clearly couldn’t hack it.

Clean homes, pick up doggy poop, collect recyclables (cans, bottles, papers, etc.), mow lawns, chop onions and sell to restaurants, pick up residential garbage for a fee, go grocery shopping for people, wash business windows, detail cars, clean out rain gutters, clean swimming pools, house sitting, walk dogs…
All businesses that do not take relatively large amounts of cash to start, just get off your butt and do it (or out of your mama’s basement).

Destroy capitalism? Make the entrepreneurs and those who take a chance “share?” It’s not fair, is it, that you, the worker do all the hard graft, whilst they sit back and collect the money? That is what you see. You don’t see that they have had to put all they own on the line or that their family have had to survive off beans on toast or for that matter any of the compromises they have had to make. It’s called having a vision and taking a risk. Why don’t you try it? No, because you are too cowardly to but you want a share in someone else’s risk taking and efforts. Nothing to do with having plenty of start up capital. Why do you think there are banks and venture capitalists? Failing that, you can even buy some shit wholesale from China and flog it on Ebay. Plough all your profits to buy more shit. Not that hard, is it? You either make something, buy and sell something or provide a service.
So, say we get the Socialist utopia you hanker for. What do you think will happen? Will the entrepreneurs and business owners sit back and let everything be taken from them? What you and other Socialist idealists fail to recognise is that people have a choice. They will bugger off of course, taking their businesses with them and employ staff elsewhere. Then you won’t even have that job you so despise because it will be given to someone else somewhere else who will appreciate it. Then what? Who’s going to pay the bills?
Bloody hell, I have never seen such negativity and can’t do attitude.

They don’t see that everyone gets paid including the government before the owner. They don’t see the hours people put in that helps success. They don’t see the hours away from family. Just a few things they take for granted.
