This will just make everyone's wages go up by 130% or more.

Its your civic duty to pay taxes. If you want billionaires to pay taxes, then so must you. As Albert einstein said: Be the change you want to see in the world. Jk.

Depends on your income streams, assets, and costs. How do you usually get income and how much? The anons about hiring a consultant and making a business are also age old advice. You can do quite a bunch of things, like depreciate assets, shit like this. Depends on your situation.

I'm in the process of doing something like this.

Reconciling your capital gains tax is prolly an S-tier tax dodging move. It's how Trump paid 0 taxes for a few years. It's pretty sad that people don't take advantage of losses on investments. Basically, the way it's set up is that every dollar you lose is money in the bank.

That's just the way the law's written.

I was listening to a nonprofit broadcast take callers, which is probably the most interesting thing you could do. One of the callers was saying that he makes 120k a year with a take home pay of 90-something, that his house was decent, but not really that impressive. The caller said he was sending two kids off to college, and that he's not been able to enjoy his life because of his financial stress.

Seems like a substantial political loss.

How do we sublate the reserve pool of labor, the lower petty-bourgeoisie and the labor aristocracy (credentialed professionals/trade union workers, also workers in the imperial core, also a number of specially privileged groups like white workers) into the struggle of the proletariat?
How do we sublate the workers' movement of the imperial core into the periphery?
I think that worker cooperatives while very flawed may be a way for the petty-bourgeoisie to ease their way into class suicide.
And I can sort of see a solution with the reserve pool of labor with all these identity groups and so on. I think it can be possible to link the struggle inside the prisons and the institutions with the struggle inside the workplace.
I'm not really sure how to deal with the embourgeoised trade unions and labor aristocracy. I feel sad because the tech labor aristocracy got very reactionary suddenly when all the software jobs started getting outsourced. I do think the free software movement was a positive step towards the public ownership of the means of production. I think the social sector and the academy are particularly problematic areas right now. There's really not a natural form of organizing in the labor aristocracy except for around education I suppose.

>>962
Fuck the trade unions, all for the class unions.

Open Insulin are an amazing co-op, and unlike most they aspire to be more than a coffee shop. They are trying to create a pharmaceutical co op that will distribute insulin to people with diabetes. They are in the process of fully developing their production techniques.

Sounds based, hope they succeed

That's cool, but unrelated to communism.

>>909
a worker-owned co-op developing open-source medicine is literally communization in action comr8

>>909
fuck off

This is very cool. We should do the same for HIV meds.

I'm ready to quit the job I have right now. I work in a shitty supermarket in the hood. My job right now is basically getting verbally abused by thugs all day and I can't take any more of this.

I need a job that I'll be able to do while also attending college. Something with as little human interaction as possible. I was thinking of applying at the post office but idk

Depends but I think mostly no. Obviously armed yea, but most are just unarmed sentries just there to notify the cops. If you are open to night shifts there might be a lot of opportunity for that kind of work wear you literally don't have to talk to anyone your whole shift.

Why are service workers despised?
They're constantly berated by customers
Teachers and Parents treat it like the lowest possible job one can have
Pay most of the time is minimal

Because those kind of jobs are just used as some hangout space.
Alot of employees and managers see the job as a financial hobby to do or a stepping stone to better work.

The moment this site bans tor users, is the moment it improves 10 fold.

Its sad that retail and restaurant workers tend to laugh or smirk when I call them "Ma'am" or "Sir". Like they're in disbelief by the acknowledgement of their humanity from a fucking customer. People really do just put them through the ringer. Unironically emotional labor.

>>779
classism? its some kind of holdover from when aristocrats treated 'the help' like subhuman animals, but now you get to be the aristocrat when off work and people at work are the subhuman. the wonders of capitalism

What are the most EVIL (non-violent so; petty, cowardly..not like at least being a (((soldier))) on the frontline) 100% Legal jobs, under American Capitalism?
I think of:
>Repo Agency CEO
>Medical Debt Collector
>Pharmaceutical Lobbyist\ healthcare company negotiator (meaning; uses legal and other tactics to make CLIENTS pay more, have less benefits)
>specialised pro-landlord Lawyer\ pro-gentrification legislator
what else!!

Blue collar work breaks your body, but white collar breaks your soul.
If it wasn't for the physical constraints I'd love to to this more regularly…

White collar work actually does that more.
All that sitting down at desks all day staring at computer screens affects your health and it makes your spirit numb with all the focus on numbers.
Humans and supplies are seen as elements of mathematical sentences

I work retail and I got sciatica and hip problems and I'm only 33 fuck this shit

If we say that retail and food-service aren't "blue-collar" they're "dog-leash" I agree with this. General labor like warehouse stuff feels like just getting paid to exercise but trying to tank aggro from an endless stream of burger-crazed salaroids will take everything from you

>ohhhhhhh my poor le soul!!!!!!
Lol. White collar work is much better and cushier than blue collar work, what the fuck is this shit.

>>938
I remember seeing a bunch of articles and shit a few years ago about trying to find ways to deal with the back problems office workers get sitting down all day. I'm not saying it isn't a problem, but they can go for a walk or do some damn stretches, nobody's tryna figure out how to help our asses standing up and actually doing shit all day.

Practice. Although from what I have gathered it's mostly an american problem

>>905
The blogpost you linked claims that they should, not that they are. Instead they are just bitching about Indians taking "their" jobs, like OP does.

>>913
Not really something I've encountered at all in the logistics industry. You'll get paid less, but working for a small/medium sized company that isn't primarily software oriented is a much comfier lifestyle.

>>913
Practice a lot. If you get a good interviewer doesn't matter how well you do the problem, but about how cool your are, how communicative you are, and if you can think of different strategies even if they're wrong. Structuring code, naming variables correctly, stuff like this.

Practicing is very important and will give you an edge. Finally it's a numbers game, you need to go through this humiliation ritual several times, and face rejection. Think of it like practice.
>t. Have worked for Big Tech, in several countries around the world, senior engineer, have interviewed numerous people as well.

Anybody here been a network tech?
I'm in school about to graduate with a degree related to networking after switching over to it when I realized that I hated coding. I'm not expecting to make >40k to start off with, but I'm worried that I don't have enough experience to skip over more help desk stuff (did that last year) and that hating coding will bite me in the ass, since one of my instructors mentioned that the orchestration that lots of companies are turning to is more reliant on coding the control plane than loading up a config onto a switch/router.
I'm also very weak so I don't think going the cabling route will necessarily be a path forward either.

I always find it strange when people act like this. Sometimes people will act out because they have something going on you don't know about but then you have people reacting to it in odd ways.
