    No one cares if you “buy into” anything. It exists whether you believe it or not.

    The entire point of keeping unemployment at certain levels is so capitalists can dictate wages and responsibilities. It’s not a secret. Bourgeois media openly panics whenever unemployment levels get too low.

        Right sure you do. I definitely believe you.

        You can believe whatever you want but that doesn’t change how the real world works outside your head.

            Sure, if that’s even true, then good for you.

            Again, you can believe whatever you want but that doesn’t change how the real world works outside your head.

                Cool good for you (if that’s even true)

                Anyway, in the very real world that we live in, unemployment is kept at certain levels so capitalists can dictate wages and responsibilities. It’s not a secret. Bourgeois media openly panics whenever unemployment levels get too low.

                    Yes, they are panicking because people have bargaining power to get higher wages. Are you still not connecting the dots there?

                    I have a skill and I am not struggling like some of my other comrades are. That does not make me blind to the purpose of unemployment or to the fact that if everyone in the world had my skill set then that would mean there are a lot of important jobs that aren’t getting done, a fact that, curiously, has completely escaped you.
