getfiscal posted:in east germany it was really hard to lose your job if you were bad at it or were really lazy. now those same people have had a hard time adjusting to capitalism, which demands that you at least show up and give an effort. so the incompetent and lazy are nostalgic for a system that gave them a living without asking for anything in return.
there's a passage in capitalism, socialism and democracy that claims (maybe satirically) that socialism will actually have better labor discipline because people will give a shit about their jobs because they will be filling demonstrated real human need or something.

i guess that means you don't have a lot of personal virtue and faith in jesus

benevolent dictatorship is the best form of government because the dictator is benevolent. just like socialism works, because when i go put my 8 hours in at the factory i work my fingers to the bone. cus i know i'm bettering society.
