I would also suggest that application of the communist model to health care has been demonstrably much more successful that the capitalist version. |

And let us all pause to consider the heroism of the control room staff at Chernobyl. For all the socio-politico rhetoric that's argue over. it is the humanity of such people that we all share. |

When I think of the heroes at Chernobyl I think of the ordinary firemen, not even employees of the plant, who went in and put the fire out. All of them died; they will have known at the time that they would die, but they did it anyway, to save everyone else. Every single one of those men was a genuine Hero of the Soviet Union - did they get the Hero medal for their coffins? That is the least they deserved in recognition for such valiant self-sacrifice. May the winter snow fall softly on their honoured graves.

Take inheritance, for example. Many laws allow to pass it down to anyone. Yet most people still choose their blood relatives. So they make a decision without the law compelling them. So the social dogma compels them. If such dogma exists, it's theoretically possible to establish a counter-dogma by which all is inherited by all once and for all. Quote:
Who has the strongest army now? Yet there are polities with just a few soldiers, or those with nothing (Panama, Iceland) - and these defenceless countries enjoy full sovereignty and respect. Mere agreement, or social dogma, is enough to prevent war. __________________________________________________ _______ Yet I do not know how such agreements are made, and he who knows will know how to build communism too. |

Point out which of the 10 Commandments I broke
Let me tell you something about myself and last night. Some weeks back I was suspended from work for 1 roster without pay My employer got sick of my smart ass attitude Losing 1 roster pay for me is nothing really, in fact I treated it as an extra week off That all stems from 1 thing, I am entitled as per my work contract $1000 of shares in the company each financial year, next week marks my 10th year there, so far I have refused them every year, that's $9000 I've refused so far to take, totally free and mine for good, who knows what they might be worth one day plus dividends I'm missing out on. Reason is this, I will not own shares in any company, no matter how profitable that company is if I would not buy or use the companies products or services, meaning I think they are sub standard to my expectations of quality. I've repeated that to managers and as expected don't like hearing it. A few weeks back I got hammered in a meeting for Supervisors and all State managers as my shifts production numbers are now consistently the among the lowest. I pointed out that my shifts quality output is always the highest no matter what the production tally is and also pointed out since my production numbers fell also coincided with the new cheaper lower quality clay was being used to make bricks and then went on about how we take more care to get the customer a 1st product rather than sub standard, by taking more care and running slower and taking more time to do quality checks ensures nothing is sub standard but can only just pass as a product that can be sold, or worse thrown out. I then blurted out my reason again on why I don't take the shares, only this time senior management was there, I forgot they hated that and hence my 1 week extra holiday Last week, 2 of my friends happened to mention they had this Monday, today, off and said they were coming down to the casino for a night out and said if I wasn't working to come along, I couldn't as I was supposed to be at work last few nights. So I came up with a cunning plan, I approached my manager almost knowing the outcome of this. They have a thing for statistics and money They don't like having people away with lost time through their fault. I told my manager that maybe I'm a little stressed out and is more than likely the casue of my attitude and remarks, he knows the deal with me having multiple roles, of the 6 people who have my same job, I'm the only one who has lasted more than 2 years, I've lasted 10. So, I told him I wanted stress leave, that they hate so have to action it, I knew what was coming next ... they hide it and just put it down as paid personal leave So, I had last roster off, paid and was my way of getting that 1 week I lost back without being there and had a night out with 2 of my closest and oldest friends, also had a great time and even won enough that I had to take a cheque rather than cash, $7000. That was banked today, half we'll keep, the other half waste on whatever. That's how I operate, I have no love for shit companies and will screw them my own way. I guess I did break the "Thou Shall Not Lie" commandment in that instance

Just read the 1936 Constitution. Quote:
I remember that you not often were on this topic in the past. Did you read the Chapter 1 of the 1936 Soviet Constitution postcount=313 ? Even American members found it more fair than the American one. Just take the time to read it. As I wrote as that time, I read it after listening a French Professor in economy explaining how horrified he was when his students asked him questions about the French and European Constitutions. He began to read several Constitutions and observed that in many cases in Western democracies, the right to modify the Constitution by the people had been "theft" by the elites. Western democraties Constitutions allow... the right to exploit the man by the man. As Brexiter fighting against EU dictatorship... are you not disguted in general by this strange tolerance about an elementary social and ethical problem ? |
