See. Its not that you dont like capitalism. Its that you have no idea about or experience with or understanding of any of the things you are continually outraged about....other than the reddit memes. That causes you to create some aboslutely ridiculous theories and hot takes that you run with and argue in circles about while constantly shifting the goalposts to avoid valid counterpoints by people with actual knowledge of and experience relating to your ill thought out gripes.
Hence...Qusdahl.
Thanks for the perspective, I guess?
But since I’m the majority shareholder, and you’re some proud worker type who’s also some learned capitalist type, why don’t you go create some surplus value for me.
As it so happens, I’m in the market for a new jeep yacht.

Sir. Youve taken over control of a non profitable company. You should've checked the balance sheet before you bought in. Also, you have no employees...so....guess the work on how to monetize would fall back on you.

"Theres a lot of black cops these days..."
Fewer than 12% of officers are black ( 2019 Census Bureau ).
"But your assumption was fueled by ignorance..."
But your statement about 'a lot of black cops' is also somewhat ignorant. Unless <12% is a lot.
I mean you are the same people saying 1 percent is a lot too. And yeah 12 percent is a decent chunk of a police force. Just saying it was a silly assumption. You guys just argue for the sake of arguing. Unless you are lumping black cops who don't want vaxxed in with the racist cops

Wait, so you want to create a new product that’s less about shareholder value and more about vitalizing communities?
And you expect the free market to come up with it for you?
And again trying to keep the thread on topic - what’s next, do you think companies shouldn’t price gouge vaccines either?

1 percent is a lot when it comes to people dying.
It isn't as much when it comes to a percentage of work force.
i.e. if you said KU has a 1% chance at winning the football championship this year, i'd say, wow, that's a lot.
But then you came out and said KU has a 12% chance at winning the Big 12 in basketball, i'd say, wow, that's not a lot.

1 percent is 1 percent. 12 percent is 12 percent. The ratios don't change the numbers don't lie lol

So you are saying percentages/odds mean exactly the same thing for every circumstance?

Hey you can have 1% of these 100 pennies.
Or you can have 1% of Jeff Bezos's shares of Amazon.
Same diff.
1% is 1%.

You, again, prove you dont grasp how this works. Or even what your argument is....but you'll keep beating your drum and moving the goalposts until everyone gives up and you can declare victory. Very trumpy Qusdahl.
