  • The first thing that comes to mind is Toyota’s philosophy of gradual improvement. Toyota cars sometimes fall behind with new technology but their caution ensures their cars are reliable and provide the best long term customer experience.

    Another thing that comes to mind is the term “in progress” which is widely used in manufacturing and it just means that it’s being done. It’s not sophisticated or difficult to think about.


  • If people had money and were able to take care of their needs, they would spend more than the billionaire who just keeps it but doesn’t use it. Money spent would drive the economy creating revenue that can be reinvested into the business to increase efficiency and capacity.

    But to address your point, redistributing billionaire wealth directly into workers hands wouldn’t make everyone rich. Yes people would have more money, at least at first. This is why socialists believe in controlling the means of production. Workers should share profits.

    Workers should not be so desperate that they can’t afford to go on strike or take time off work to vote, or to have the time to find a good job.

    Arguing that everyone can’t be rich isn’t a sincere argument. You’re creating a fictional scenario where everyone has millions of dollars.

    Is this some kind of joke? My aunt Lisa has worked on a farm for 40 years doing back breaking work and has multiple ruptured disks and numbness in her feet. Carrying firewood and bags of chicken seed all day would send you home to your Gameboy and warm blanket. I bet you wouldn’t even last a day. I bet you wouldn’t even try because you’re probably on the Atkins diet and afraid to eat real food. My aunt Lisa has broken her body farming. She is tough and strong and you will never be like her. I bet you would be too scared to show this meme to her.
