If employers aren't paying their employees what was promised, then they should be heavily fined

Capitalism works because consent exists and contracts are executed fairly. You are willing to pay X, I am willing to work for X.

If I am willing to work for X, and you decide to pay me X-Y, that's no good, especially if we agreed beforehand on the terms.


Ehhhhhhh.

Oh right. I forgot about how Venezuela, Italy, Greece, France, Soviet Russia, India, and Cuba proved that socialism is the proven system that works.

Italy and France aren't socialist, and have never been

the shitshow in the rest of those countries was caused by interference from the US and Britain, not by their own internal politics


Yeah guys, socialism hasnt had it's fair shot yet

do you really think Cuba wouldn't have done better if the US didn't impose sanctions and try to assassinate their leader literally hundreds of times


Lets not forget that Batista took 300 million in his personal cash (accumulated through graft and bribes from US businesses). Along with he and his supporters that fled into exile with him taking 700 million in art and cash. That's a billion dollars. In 1950s money. It kind of wrecks your entire economy when that much of it's liquidity is stolen. Then your largest trading partner embargoes you because it's businesses are no longer going to be able to oppress, exploit, and murder your citizens.
