In my ideal society we'd take care of each other.

Don't use the TSA as a fucking model. Shit.

In an ideal society, I think workers would be compensated for the value they produce not the value they'll accept, and that's just incompatible with a society that structurally predisposed to value investment above labor.

How do you feel about compensation for shit like QA at peeps like boeing? Lots of us don't 'produce' but we're huge into it.

I'm not pedantic about "production" being actual literal "fabrication", but just a contrast to "rent seeking" or "investment".

Fair enough. Thanks for the conversation.
