fuck it I'm becoming a teacher and using left wing ideology to indoctrinate young people

I am afraid sir that you are deluded. What you are over-emphasising here is that the owners of the means of production compete with one another to an extent where they will allow workers increased power. Unemployment exists because the capitalist class benefits from it by ensuring a compliant...
