Just move to Cuba or North Korea, you'll get a living wage and a big prison. I used to live in Cuba for 25 years with less than $20 USD a month so that's more or less your value in the communist society you seek.

if i wasn't in a sling atm i'd hug u eagle. Was thinking the same thing after i read that intro!
Hug accepted Dexter. I understand these young idealistic leftists because I went through that stage as well, I mean who doesn't?
At some point he'll grow up and realize Government and Big Corporations collude to fuck the little guys up and he'll finally get it someday. Hope he doesn't get it when the rifles are pointing at him at the gulag shooting walls like most of them ended up in my country. I recommend you watch this video if you haven't already, very enlightening for the entitled rich american kids that believe state coercion will save them
I as well. Its easy to get sucked into, as you understand as good as I. Its not even as if I don't lean more left that right even to this day. Buy many young people have been brainwashed into this style of thinking. When they see all of their best intentions, laid wasted, by sociopaths who wind up taking power under these ideologies, its already too late to walk it back. Even something as benign as a "liveable wage," will be taken as a sign of an authoritarian required takeover, to manage, and subvert those who disagree to the Gulags.....
Why take things to the extreme? I am advocating for employers to take care of their employees. How does that translate to communism?
Employers don't care or should care about their employees, they should care about increasing efficiency and making money. A job is contract between employer/employee and the government must stay out of it to avoid creating damaging distortions on this market. If you are getting paid less than you deserve just quit, increase your value and look for other employers, or even better, create value for society on your own enterprise. Communism is a Road to Serdom, it's not a black or white thing, it has many shades. The fact that you are early on the Road to Sefdom as described by F. Hayek doesn't mean you a re not a communist, you are just early on the way, like most idealistic leftists are, they just don't realize Government and Big corporations collude to keep them ignorant and unable to compete. The more they whine about government intervening and protecting big monopolies, they worse off they will always be.
