Do you recall when Romania had to redo their elections because the candidate everyone originally voted for wasn't sufficiently pro-NATO?

Whenever you talk about socialism with someone new the common response is vuvuzela no iPhone. "If we didn't pay Elon Musk 1 trillion dollars he wouldn't be incentivized to take ketamine, go on Twitter, and play video games all day."

And it's true: why would people work hard if they weren't directly financially incentivized for their work?

Well, a long time ago I was in the army, I accept your boos, its understandable. But in the army, there's S1 specialists whose only job is to lose your paperwork and occasionally show up for PT, and there's high speed delta ranger force people who spend their entire lives like an Olympic athlete improving themselves to they can go overseas and kill brown people so oil execs can buy another yacht. And the thing is, that 18Z that pushes himself to the limits every day risking life and limb for the stock market gets paid about the same amount as that 92Water Dog. They do it for the love of the game and so will Musk.

So basically, if you think communism won't work, you hate the troops. 🦅🫡🇱🇷
