I made it for myself as the simplest way to keep track of positive routines. The concept is simple: Track the activities that make up your perfect day and monitor your daily progress effortlessly. Here is also a github link for those who interested : https://github.com/tracyspacy/yacht
A remarkable quote from the book:โจ"Darwin wrote that it was arrogant for humans to think they were so special they could only have been created by a god. He said it was more humble and more accurate to believe humans were created from animals."
just calm down and control yourself I was talking about your Bordiga nonsense.
something that looks like Trotskyism, sounds like Trotskyism, smells like Trotskyism...
Anyway answering your question, the reason behind such post is just defense against misleading info about ussr that is still actively spreading despite ussr is dead for 30 years.
one thing amazes me for sure: there is still bunch of people loudly protecting their masters' right to exploit and rob them.
And they are doing this while are already living in the world destroyed and robbed by capital, where COVID showed how vulnerable and under-financed our healthcare system is, where due to the global competition and sinking profits of corporations countries are building alliances, and preparing a new big imperialistic war for us, where crisis goes after crisis together with high inflation globally, and where quality of life is sinking monthly.
Countries which prevent markets from operating efficiently tend to do really poorly over time. The more authoritarian, the worse they perform.
In general it means less government control over the markets. And less means libertarian concept (see article again). If you mean something in between , there is need in very detailed scale to find difference between current regulated markets, non regulated markets (libertarian nonsense) and balance that you want.
hehe considering market propaganda in education, on every media it is hard for me to not challenge my "belief" on a daily basis.
unfortunately in your comment you repeating neoliberal propaganda, please check guardian article on "free market zone libertarian experiment" tldr it led to low wage sweatshops and workers repression (and spoiler even this libertarian experiment relied on governmental support)
for sure, there are many essential needs beyond housing and food. I cannot agree that it works well with food either, starving still exist even in "developed" countries. It looks you are trying to a patch something that really flawed. Unfortunately it is not a way. We should move away from profit oriented society and away from human exploitation.
depends on problem you are going to solve, if you want to provide people with affordable housing, then challenge your beliefs in almighty market.
if this topic is among your interests, this book allows you to dive deep with relative ease
Landlords do not build houses, they just rent them out. Housing, shelter call it whatever you like is human right and essential need, so it should not be a part of speculations for profits. Now you can see overpriced real estate because of investors who buy it and never live there. All this "helpers" who rent out their apartments bring more harm than benefit for society (they at least contribute to a price growth in real estate). Buildings could be constructed by government owned organizations in order to provide society with housing, no need in speculators to solve problems.
Sapiens is basically a simplification of a great book: The Outline of History, written by Herbert George Wells. So I highly recommend to read this as well, or if you havent read Sapiens yet, rather read The Outline of History. https://www.gutenberg.org/files/45368/45368-h/45368-h.htm
Obviously, but still better to have full link, especially if discord is full of crypto scams
