You're viewing part of a thread.
300 years ago 90% of the planet were farmers. Surely you can find enough people.
Not if everyone is paid the same. Why do hard farm work if you don't have to?
That's exactly why the number of farmers keeps reducing under capitalism. In socialism, you can get to democratically decide how much people are paid depending on the actual needs of the economy.
300 years ago, people were forced to farm for a lord.
So are you suggesting a return to feudalism?
No, mate, I'm obviously not suggesting a return to feudalism. I'm suggesting that if humanity needs more people allocated in agriculture, it should allocate more people in agriculture.
Allocate? People should be forced to farm?
You're right, that's not feudalism, that's slavery.
Allocate doesn't have to be through violence, it can be through incentive. If farmers made twice as much as stock traders and worked 30h a week there would be plenty more.
It was already established at the beginning of this conversation by the person who started this chain that everyone would have equal pay.
I'm not that person, I reject equal income for every job.
If you want to change the subject in the middle of a conversation, you might say so ahead of time.
Just say you have no arguments and you'd rather cry about poor farmers who work so hard without actually providing any solutions
Has ordering someone to say something over the internet ever worked for you? Because you seem to think it will this time.
