The next time some starts their argument with "Why should I have to pay for someone's...?" Just say "Because you're not a selfish asshole, right?"

*nod* Often, the argument is "People *WANT* to work!", and to a certain extent that is true-*if* you expand the concept of work past "sells labor to others". What people *actually* want is freedom from suffering- and to do things that bring them satisfaction.

In the USA though, the so-called work ethic has it's roots in religious extremism, and the Puritan belief that if you weren't laboring, you *literally* were a target for the Devil.

Yes and no. There are plenty of existing cultures without modern wealth and technology that get their needed tasks done, and take care of their members *just fine*.

This isn't a feel-good story, this is an indictment of a wealthy society's unwillingness to just feed kids a hot meal.

NO ONE should have their sense of self worth and meaning tied to their participation in paid employment. The fact that our society has pushed this lie for generations is horrific, and causes very real harm.

Human survival shouldn't be something for the "free market" to play with. Health care is a right, not a privilege.

They should put it all out in public. Do it on the steps of Congress with cameras everywhere. Release all the papers and documents. Fuck the GOP.

Ugh. Really? I’m so tired of people pretending that Trump is what makes America awful. It’s always been awful. He just ripped the mask off.

There is no "trans debate". Trans people exist. Trans people deserve to live in a society that doesn't treat them like crap. Period.

Hi. Jew here. Israeli Jew. Trump and Netanyahu's "vision of peace" is a vision of permanent apartheid. Every Jew in the world who claims to care about democracy, human rights, and racism should be outraged that this atrocity is perpetuated in their name. Free Palestine.

My wife graduated from college 20 years ago. She has a white collar professional job. We've been making monthly payments for two decades...and we still have thousands to pay off because of the interest.

Matt Shea is a religious extremist accused of aiding domestic terrorism. He's not in jail because he's a white male politician. needs to take steps to remove this dangerous fanatic from office and the streets.
