You think that slavery is justifiable?

The suicide levels are the same as the national average. It's not like it's a sweatshop. If it were actually that bad no one would work there.

When I lived in the Chinese SAR sure there was poverty but there was a lot of f------ money to be made. Guess where that poverty comes from? Drugs, gangs, etc. that's their own fault if they choose to participate and can't hang.

Renting
![There is astonishing false consciousness concerning the employment relationship in our society. This can be illustrated by an experiment conducted with beginning Economics students First the students are told about the system of chattel slavery where workers are bought and sold as movable property. But just as a house or a car can be bought and sold, so one can also rent a house or car. Now instead of buying workers as in a slavery system, suppose we consider a system of renting workers. The students are asked if anyone knows an economic system based on the renting of workers. There is usually a puzzled silence. A Black student points out that during slack times, plantation slaves were rented out to work as stevedores, as hands in factories (for example, turpentine or sugar mills), or as common laborers. The Professor agrees that this happened but notes that it was the exception rather than the rule. We need an example of a whole economic system based on renting people. After another pause, some students offer, "Well, what about feudalism?" The Professor responds that feudalism was a system of indirect ownership of workers. Instead of being owned as chattel or movable property, serfs had the security of being attached to the landed estate which was then owned as real property. Thus we still need an example of a system of renting people. After more embarrassed silence and shuffling feet, finally student, by the process of elimination if by no other logic, offers the answer: "Well, isn't that sort of like what we have now? Yes, the system of renting people is our system, the employer-employee system. Of course, we do not say people are rented; we say people are "hired." The students would have had no difficulty thinking of an economic system where workers are hired. The difference a word makes! When applied to things rather than persons, the words "rent and hire" are synonyms. One could say either "rent a car" or "hire a car" with the only difference being that Americans favor "rent a car" while the British will tend to "hire a car." But American and British usage agrees that when people are rented, one says people are hired From an abstract economic-legal viewpoint, the employer-employee relation is the rental relation applied to persons. What do you buy when you rent something? You buy its services, the right to employ or use the entity within certain limits for a given time period. In terms of the stock-flow distinction in economics, to rent the stock is to buy a flow of services from the stock. When one rents an apartment or a car, one buys not the apartment or car itself but some of its services. If one rents a car for three days, one buys three car-days. If one rents an apartment for s months, one buys the services, six apartment-months. Similarly when one rents a person for eight hours, one buys the labor services of eight man-hours (or person-hours), .e., the right to employ or use the person within the limits of the contract for an eight hour period. The labor market is the market for the renting of human beings NO. NO. THAT'S NOT TRUE. 0 DONT TREADON ME THATSIMPOSSIBLE!!](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/masonry/001/286/135/6f2.jpg)

Plainly
!["Don't Communists Want To Steal Our Stuff?” NO! Your Boss is Stealing from You! But to understand the communist stance on property, you must first understand the function of the different kinds of property: You work at a cellphone factory. You are paid $20 for each cellphone you produce. The cellphone then goes on to be sold in stores for S500. A small amount of the difference goes towards things like materials and advertising, but the vast majority goes straight into the pockets of your boss and the company shareholders. In other words, YOU produced a cellphone worth $500, and your boss pocketed $480 of it, for doing nothing. Your boss feels he is entitled to the money you create with your labor, because he arbitrarily "owns" the building you produced the cellphone in. This is the function of private ro to collect the profit YOU create. Personal Property Includes all of the things you own as an individual, including your car, television, toothbrush, etc. Any object acquired by the money you made through working is yours by right. Private Property Includes none of the things you personally own and worked for. It includes things that make up the means of production, like an entire factory or a grocery store, which a boss “owns" and collects profit from, though they perform no labor. to provide an avenue for your boss Your Boss Needs You, You Don't Need Your Boss! Includes when the means of production are owned by the people who actually work there, such as the workers in a steel mill "The theory of Communism may be summed up in one sentence: Abolish all private property." WORKERS OF THE WORLD -Karl Marx UNITE! Communists believe that workers are entitled to the benefits of their labor Workers should own and control the means of production collectively, and abolish the idea of a boss entirely. Do you think that you should fully receive the fruits of your labor? Then you might be a communist!
