those are cool links and all but being a marxist simply to be self righteous and ensconced in complacency by feeling morally superior to your peers... that kind of misses the point iunno

isn't that the point of LF. d&D posters who wante dto have more correct opinions. i mean thats why i'm here i dunno about you but i haven't organized any labor recently. i didn't even go to my union protest yesterday and say something cool.



good thing the Lf spirit infected the somethingaweful forums and great democratic socialist posters like zeitgeist, duck monster, fire, and helsing are there to show those guys what socialism is really about! and now feminism is even cool thanks to mods like forums fat goon ozma! guess were the ones who got left behind...

the moment i knew maoism was correct was when duck monster said he hated maoists and considered them dangerous because maoists will kill trot and anarchist organizers in like the phillipines or peru instead of working with them on all those things they agree on

you compare steel production, machine tools, life expectancy or any other indicator- same result.

it's not that gdp doesn't correlate with them, its that you're a leftard and don't know that manufacturing grows faster than overall gdp during initial industrialization.

are you trying to fuckin' tell me that gdp doesnt necessarily measure standard of living, especially in a socialist economy, shut the fuck up moron.



correct, starving peasants don't show up in gdp

hidden costs of increasing life expectancy: 1. more wealth extracted from the young and productive through Social Security programs 2. skyrocketing health care costs 3. increased road fatalities 4. more right wing voters 5. perpetuating racism 6. old ppl smell 7. NCIS becomes most popular show on television 8.having to go to your grandparents house on Christmas morning instead of playing w/ all your new toys

benefits of increasing life expectancy: 1. more time to wait for the inevitability of Communism 2. lowered adult diaper prices due to economies of scale
