Unemployment has to jump 40 to 50 percent, in my view. We need to see some pain in the economy. We need to remind people that they work for the employer, not the other way around

What a fucking asshole! True “we need to show those uppity peasant who’s boss” energy 🤬

Sounds like he’s mad he can’t afford as many yachts.

Viking_Hippie ,

Absolutely

If you can’t put your yacht on a bigger yacht, how is life worth living?

Pfft, you need a golf course on a yacht in a pool on a house on a yacht!

Employee and employer work TOGETHER. I would love to meet this guy in person, real let them eat cake energy. Anyway, where’s my guillotine sharpener.?

Sounds like commie talk to me. How long have you been a member of the Communist Party of America? /s

The thing is, the workers work for money, not for the employer.

The employer is just a middleman that can easily be replaced.

Absolutely! https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/67a0b623-f972-4171-be55-d9034ae864b4.png

Indeed. Anyone earning more than 40k annual salary belongs to the richest 3% in the world. Get ready gringos, we third world countries are coming for you

When we have nothing to lose, then we have no problem eating the billionaires.

Tim Gurner is talking like someone who has never been an employee, much less experienced actual poverty.

Viking_Hippie ,

You talking about me? Because you’d be wrong on both counts. That’s part of why I despise greedy and power-hungry billionaires (but I repeat myself) like him…

Or did you mean him?

rainynight65 ,

I meant him. Apologies if that came across the wrong way. I’ll edit my post for clarity.

Viking_Hippie ,

Fair enough 😁

If billionaires ruined the economy in such a way that 50 percent of people couldn’t afford to feed their families then I like to think that people would simply eat the billionaires.

But that’s wishful thinking and seeing how people interact in public and online makes me think that way too many people still think billionaires are awesome.

What do you mean “if”? They’re well on the way already and it’s getting worse, not better.

then I like to think that people would simply eat the billionaires.

Problem with that is that owning everything also includes bodyguards and even de facto private armies.

way too many people still think billionaires are awesome.

Unfortunately you’re absolutely right.
