We've hit an unexpected tough patch, and while the past was imperfect, returning to it will be an improvement. As such, to ensure security, to achieve full equality and total stability, for the duration of high inflation:
1. All workers, wage earners and employees of any kind whatsoever shall henceforth be attached to their jobs and shall not leave nor be dismissed nor change employment.
2. Every establishment, concern, corporation or person engaged in production of any nature whatsoever shall henceforth produce the same amount of goods per year as it, they or he produced during the previous year, no more and no less.
3. Every person of any age, sex, class or income, shall henceforth spend the same amount of money on the purchase of goods per year as he or she spent during the Basic Year, no more and no less.
4. All wages, prices, salaries, dividends, profits, interest rates and forms of income of any nature whatsoever, shall be frozen at their present figures.
It's over. The economy is a LARP. Wherever the hell we're going it ain't to any kind of normal by any measurable standards. Better get the lighter and smoke up, johnny because Kansas has already gone bye-bye
>economy is a larp Yes, given requirement to hire women, and the existence of HR and the lawyers / law making HR necessary...

So slavery? Those policies are not new, are usually implemented during the last years of a decadent Empire. Why not let the market fix it for once?
Carter Myers
>why not let the market fix itself Politicians aren't required for that. Plus, people would simply elect new politicians in order to keep the redistribution (theft) through taxes.

Retarded planned economy socialist drivel

>slavery Starvation is prosperity, slavery is freedom, torture chambers are brother-love. If you don't understand it, then it's your own fault, and it's the mangled corpses in the jail cellars who're to blame for all their troubles, not our benevolent leaders.

What's your point? Is this post some kind of Rand/Objectivist psyops? Why the cigarettes with the dollar symbol?
The dollar sign? It stands for a great deal. It stands on the vest of every fat, pig like figure in every cartoon, for the purpose of denoting a crook, a grafter, a scoundrel, as the one sure-fire brand of evil. It stands as the money of a free country, for achievement, for success, for ability, for man's creative power, and, precisely for these reasons, it is used as a brand of infamy. It stands stamped on the forehead of a successful man as a mark of damnation.
Incidentally, do you know where that sign comes from? It stands for the initials of the United States.

So your solution to our current struggles is to return to Russian style serfdom? Is your last name Schwab by any chance?
Charles Nelson
Let's not be anti-German, fren. Also, do you have a better solution?
Ryan Murphy
Comes from here, the columns in the shield on my flag
>anti-German Please elaborate on that one >better solution Sure, but it's not very sexy nowadays to advocate for social virtues, and hence a focus on the basics is oftentimes dismissed as being idealistic in light of more "pragmatic" alternatives.
Charles Roberts
>real money Are those silver?
Nicholas Clark
Retarded,and would spread poorness everywhere. I dont get people who seem to think that destroying everything is the only way of going back to "normal". What you propose are communist laws that have never been normal
Jack Perry
>why anti German I believe that Schwab is G*rman
Andrew Ramirez
Silver Dollar, yes
Landon Reed
Real money is whatever other people accept as payment
Zachary Bennett
>social virtues I've never (intended) to invoke this concept. I advocate the extended order that happen with free markets.
Owen Adams
Yeah, but that has little to do with the reference I was making, of him being one of the driving forces of the WEF. Where your proposed model is akin to the whole 'you own nothing and be happy' veneer of supposed benevolent elite interest, that de facto condemns the majority of the population to functional serfdom.
Angel Nelson
>Real money is whatever other people accept as payment That is "money." "Real money" is used to denote money with physical backing.
Elijah Russell
>my proposed model The OP is a copy/paste from Atlas Shrugged, and I posted it to mock statist intervention.
Isaac Brooks
>free markets "Free" markets only work if the participants have a shared value base that puts importance on freedom of choice. If the economic expansion of the past decades has shown anything, it is that dictatorships don't magically become democratic when exposed to free market principles. The reason why this is, is because free market economy is a product of social dynamics, and not its source.
Julian Mitchell
Touche
Sebastian Reed
Yes, I agree with this, that people choose freedom.
Levi Myers
Returning to it will be an improvement? Nigga the US is 30 Trillion in debt and the feds ain't bailing us out, the gas prices are un-truckable, and housing is in the biggest bubble since 2008. Are you retarded? Were going to go down further than a 9/11 roof jumper. This shit ain't going back to normal for a long, long, long time.
Carter Wilson
>with physical backing.
Whats the usefullness of the gold,other than being an artificial "richness" that provides any society the coin needed? You just need trustness. Gold can serve that purpouse as any other thing. See in places with no coins,as a jail,they need a coin and invent one,whatever if cigarretes or noodles. When there hasnt been a coin,like in the dark ages,there has been poornes . Thats why christianism dosent advocate for communism. They tried sth similar and wasna disaster,the so called dark ages. What you propose is a dark age again. Its not needed to destroy everything. Letting tech advance with sone.rules would solve all the problems. Per example social media for over 18yold,and internet in general and smartphones,would put normal dynamics back to normal. There is a general rule,the less trade the less items and the more expensive. You are seeing this now as there is less tarde with Russia due to war.
