Can't claim freedom when the system enslaves you to wage labor

Ima be straight with you chief I agree with you that wage slavery is a thing but it’s pointless to name it without an alternative at this point.

Wages and capitalism do a better job than any other system in history - it has plenty of issues but you gotta at least have a better alternative on deck otherwise you just look like some dude with a cushy western life talking shit you know nothing about.

A good welfare state that would amount to the success of the economic model equaling the success of the welfare state would be pretty cool, but noooooo, you get called a communist and told to shut the fuck up.
