friendly-neighborhood-patriarch:cookingwithroxy:The real problem is that we were never meant to live APART from our support structure and family, and it leads us into very unhealthy and unhappy social situations where without grandparents close by parents get overburdened and resentful of their kids, and kids get resentful of their parents.Like yes I know abusive families exist, but as it was look internationally in so many cultures it’s americans who are seen of as weird for moving out and not staying in the same house over generations, with a mutual support network.Hell, think of all the money people would still have if they lived in the same home their grandparents paid off generations ago.“most-educat3d” yeah sorry scraps of paper degree mean Jack Shit.The system is the same system as the old south. Not the rich slaver part. I mean yeah that too, but that was a tiny population in the old south, and youre not the slave owner, im not the slave owner, none of us are the slave owners. I mean the systen where everyone’s most common otherwise-wellpaying jobs were occupied by forced unpaid labor who otherwise would have been absent or making more jobs themselves. Thats us, thats where we live in, starting in 1971 under Richard Nixon and Mao Zedong’s financial requirement for 60000 factories full of disproportionately black urban industrual jobs to fire their employees and reopen in china with forced unpaid labor, and wages immediately stagnated indefinitely. Wages were later permitted out of necessity, and even started griwing in China, so their government rounded up over ten million people from an unsinicized ethnic minority, and outsourced chinese peoples jobs away to help GDP and shareholders, where they wouldnt have to pay chinese people anymore. And if we dont turn the tides, we are tomorrow’s Uyghers. Because we already cant fund our own lives, but slavers can fund the survival of their slaves. -- source link
