      ​@@angelwilder2378 it might have something to do with the fact that the world is driven by power and wealth accumulation, which is constantly - no matter who sits in the white house or congress - contracting towards the "top". people want what others have, and the economic systems all force them to work at jobs that generally have zero to do with their sustenance, other than needing a mediated way to exchange that work for paper that they then have to give to someone else to sustain them. civilization and its requisite institutions are not reformable, it is far too late and too populous. those that want something different need to do it themselves, which means at the scale of individuals and those they choose to create life with. i've been working at that for 20 years, and i feel much more free than anyone i know who lives a more traditional "civilized" life. but my way is not for everyone, and everyone should be free to live as they see fit; if they impose on others, those others should deal with it directly, including with (temporary) allies as necessary. some would call that "rule of the jungle" or "might makes right". but dig this: the current world is precisely that, except those with "might" have the "legal" backing of the system and the military. does that make them any more "right"?
      there is no way that mass society can be equitable or "fair" to everyone, because mass society requires governance, and that means some people will always have power over others. it is mind boggling that people still believe that 300 million individuals can somehow all agree to the same values, priorities, laws, etc. or even that they should all agree. humans are doomed.

    I worked in a factory for a number of years, alongside some people who had put their entire adult lives into working there. When our contract negotiations stalled and we motioned to strike those contracts got drawn up pretty quick, usually within a day or two. Might've been the fact that we produced 1/2 a million pounds of product for McDonald's USA every 24 hours or it might've been that the company would've had a really hard time replacing the collective knowledge and work ethic of the shifts that ran that place 24/7. Workers hold more power than you realize. Cheers from Canada.

      EXACTLY. The best way to get a living wage for everyone is to make it an absolute DEMAND of every individual in the nation. Companies that hire below that level would have to raise their wages to acquire any employees at all. For a period of time there would be a pretty heavy unemployment issue but the economy would expand to accomodate. Government minimum wage can never acheive this. Only the people can.

      @@scarydark5719 i have seen dozens of beau's videos. i saw a single one where his promotion of small scale communities creating their lives outside of governance is the only one that even came close. he is definitely anarchist-friendly, but most of what he says is not anti-state, it is about changing the state. being more "democratic". that is not anarchy. democracy ends up being nothing more than tyranny of the majority. when as many as half the people (minus 1, theoretically) are guaranteed to be unhappy with any given decision made by the "majority" (or plurality, let alone elitist representatives concerned only about their own power), how can you possibly see that as a socially acceptable situation? it isn't, not to me, and it is why mass society is a massive failure. beau's thoughts on that were quite useful.
      and again, i am not dissing beau, he has quite a bit of useful critique. the fact that i don't see him as an anarchist does not diminish the points he makes that resonate with me. i am not a binary thinker, and my agreement or disagreement with any particular thought someone expresses is not a wholesale confirmation/rejection of that individual or anything else they might express.

    If everyone stayed home from work for two weeks, the wealthy corporations and the politicians they own would panic.
