@MichaelAune @SFGate Understand that California has been trying to squeeze the farmers out of their land by shutting off the water to the farms in the central valley. They have been surviving thus far, but the closure of Del Monte could be the straw that broke the camel's back.

@_mind_your_biz @nxt888 Why do rich white people get off with just a fine?
English

@nxt888 So don't do crime. In prison means they were found guilty.
We need MORE prisons to hold all the criminals. Glad the labor can help pay for it.
Alternatively we should impose capital punishment more often for murder and this would help reduce the numbers in prison.

The United States has the largest prison population on earth.
Not per capita.
Total.
More people in cages than China.
More than Russia.
More than every "authoritarian" state it condemns in its annual human rights reports.
1.8 million people.
Disproportionately Black.
Disproportionately poor.
Disproportionately from the zip codes with the worst schools, the fewest jobs, the most abandoned infrastructure.
This is presented as a "criminal justice system."
It functions as a labor system.
Prison labor, paid between 13 cents and $1.15 an hour in most states, produces goods for McDonald's, Walmart, Victoria's Secret, Whole Foods, and the United States military.
The 13th Amendment, which abolished slavery, contains an exception clause:
"Except as punishment for crime."
That exception has never been closed.
It has been expanded.
The plantation did not disappear.
It received a different name and a legal foundation.

@DanielW_X @kozturk411 @JimsTweets You're a fucking imbecile. The government isn't raising them, they provide a baseline education. Smart kids=smart society.

@kozturk411 @JimsTweets No, I'm saying they are not the government's kids.
I have a bigger issue with kids raised by the government voting.

Do Homeschool kids just like, not have to take tests or exams or get grades? How does the government know if the child is actually getting an education and not just like, being neglected
Maryam@hell_line0
The fact that Americans can just not send their kids to school and call it that “homeschooling” is crazy to me.

@DanielW_X @JimsTweets Right! Gotta keep the kids stupid and away from the world so we can abuse them!

@JimsTweets The government doesn't need to know... they are not the government's kids.

@Only_boy_feet @levineugen Who told you that? The US govt? The US govt thats sponsored anticommunist dictatorships around the world? The us govt that supported the Jeju Island Massacre? I have no clue what the DPRK is like. I do know that the US govt lies and stuff it says should be met with skepticism

@MichaelAune @levineugen Dude, North Korea has China as a neighbor and ally, US blockade excuse doesn't apply to them. Northkorean government doesn't give a shit about its people and only see them as slaves

Es decir, si se da una hambruna entre 1921 y 1922 en medio de una guerra civil, junto a una sequía e infraestructura colapsada los muertos son culpa de los bolcheviques y del comunismo; pero si el propio mercado contribuye a la muerte como en la Gran Hambruna Irlandesa, (+)

Есть такой миф, что капитализм тоже убивает и даже намного больше чем коммунизм. Это очередная ложь коммунистов. Капитализм - это добровольный обмен. У добровольного обмена нет жертв по определению. Во всех примерах зла капитализма, зло творит государство, т.е. социализм.

@OK_GREAT45 @canugur1987 Unless the factory owners work together to set low wages
English

@canugur1987 in a free market, everything including labor has a price, based on the availability and demand which means, if one factory owner has wages set studpitly low, he will be unable to hire people, because they would go work somewhere else, the wage is therefor set by the market.

@Only_boy_feet @levineugen In this case, you can blame the US. Since you're so smart, What effects do you think 50 years of US sanctions would have?
