The United States was dealt its final blow half a century ago at the hands of an Alzheimer's patient by the name of Ronald Reagan.
This is the necrotic stage.
A human is definitely generating more value than the parking space, it's just most of it is being stolen by greedy capitalists.
In Soviet Russia, parking space never earn more than human.
But mostly because the waiting list for a Lada was 10 years long.
They’re making us lose our reasons for living. Life’s too hard and not worth it at this stage. Feel bad for all the babies born everyday. The majority of them are going to have hard lives and grow up too hate every second of it most of the rest of the world.
Turn that sadness into anger, turn the anger in a deep, boiling rage. You know where to direct it, dismantle the whole system little by little. You know who are the guilty ones, we all do
And then he shoots a school up.😐
But have you considered there is also less demand for you than a downtown Toronto parking space?? Ha! Check mate!
If you squat the parking space does that mean you can raise demand for yourself enough to receive higher compensation than the parking space alone?
This is the feudal stage of capitalism where the rich recaptured all the real estate and are making tons of profit just sitting on it.
Which is pretty interesting because the "God" of capitalism, Adam Smith, hated landlords.
I was looking at Toronto real estate just for the lulz the other day... 150k$ to buy a parking space... First thing I found surprising is that you can buy a parking space (wtf?) But even more surprising... They sell for more than I paid for my condo 10 minutes from downtown Ottawa 10 years ago 😐
If you could rent it out for the 27 an hour like they stated above you could start seeing a return in as little as 5 years. Sounds like a great investment.
It's an amazing investment because it pays for itself AND its value will increase because managers are idiots and are bringing people back to the office.
Catch being you have to live in Ottawa.
Even as a leftist, this feels like a very silly take. It’s not the spot making anything, it’s like any other resource.
The blight of parking spots all over is definitely an issue, but a property “making” money doesn’t seem like a great argument. Am I being dumb on this?
To be sure it’s apples to oranges imo. But, I think, an analogy can be drawn.
Maybe a more accurate way to think about it is that the parking space is worth more to the owner of that company than I am to my current boss at 22.50 us dollars per hour.
And that feels more like apples to apples.
But only because there is an actual limited and finite number of parking spots in any given area… unfortunately the less specialized a position is the greater number of people there are to take it… and with 8+ billion people on the earth odds are good you can be relatively easily replaced even at higher skill level jobs…
And FTR I am not justifying the poor wages of the working class (i.e. almost everyone who isn’t a boomer or a “rich” person)… but this comparison is a little foolish and fails at making the point the OP wanted to make… we’re stuck in Capitalism. Supply and demand. There can be no more parking spaces in certain places but we’re constantly making new people…
It showcases the difference between owners and workers.
A worker is a full person, with all of the different qualities that involves as the tweet mentions. And to earn money they have to put their body and mind to use. Using their energy and will.
An owner has to own a piece of land.. which earns them over double that of what the worker earns. And that's literally it. Society rewards the owner for this.
It makes the system sound so broken.
It's a joke. It's not a serious statement.
Don't open a business downtown unless you have a damn good reason for it. It's a massive real estate monopoly.
Yeah, um, we are going to need y'all to return to the office for, um, "productivity" reasons.
Just looked at a studio apartment at my old complex. It's $2,995 a month. About $100 a day, assuming a 30-day month. You need to pay hotel prices just to live in a studio apartment (with a lease) here.
Try having less thoughts and feelings maybe?
How about we just get rid of parking in cities, so there will be no complaining about how much they charge for parking. Cars are gay as fuck anyways, just have sidewalks, bike roads, and actually good public transport lmao (tbf not something you can exactly find in most of the US & Canada)
Why are you using the word gay as an insult?
Surely they mean that automobiles are care free, right? ... Right?
It's okay, I'm gay as fuck too
Careful, you might get Georgepilled
You are less useful to society than a parking space
Man, that’s rough. She should try contributing more value than a parking space does.
Image being this out of touch with basic human dignity, and loud about it.
No disrespect, but you’re struggling pretty hard with real it’s here.
Charge $27/hr to sit in the car all day so it can’t be towed
Have you ever been to a big city?
She definitely doesn’t want to know how much some of these girls are making on YouTube and other sites NPC streaming
Welp, just don't drive then if you can't afford to park the car.
The parking space doesn't make shit. The city is the one profiting, for a space you're using, so dumb. If the parking space was an employee, i assure you it would make way less than her, because it's not a complicated job. There's nothing wrong here, just people bad at understanding economics.
Let me ask you all something: does an increase in demand for something raise the price for it, or decrease the price?
Hashtag rents be like
