Decline of Functioning Society

What I say now, as I've heard over and over about Sales and Budgets, etc. Evidently it's all about the Money, so if that's the #1 focus above all else then show us the Money.

Of course in this Judeo-Masonic unnatural FIRE Economy they don't want young strong men challenging theie Dominion and being able to raise good Christian children.

This Jewish Parastic Economy thrives on Slave Labor and Hopelessness.

Dave Ramsey is a moron.

He thinks you can hire the best employees while paying average wages. The guy calling into the show didn't even offer his employees health insurance and he was complaining that he could only hire idiots. Ramsay tells him to only pay "market rates" and not more. The comments section rightly slammed Dave Ramsey who is an absolute moron.

Typical low IQ small business owner. If you want the best you need to pay above average. Being a pleasant place to work helps but its not enough without the higher pay. It seems to be a common trait amongst entrepreneurs and corporate management people to never take responsibility for their actions. Everything is always someone else's fault and they always want to gaslight others.

Greed is such a huge problem in modern society—even within so-called Christian circles. They want all of it to flow to the top without a thought for the lives of those who work for them. I see this all across the spectrum and here in the so-called “Bible Belt” where it can be worse.

For example, my wife just had dinner with a friend lamenting the condition of her church (we used to attend but became Orthodox). Pastor makes north of $150,000 a year and so does the wife. The friend commented that they don’t work much, they don’t counsel anyone, and they go on a month-long sabbatical. Volunteers and lower paid staff take care of the rest.

This is typical too, because as a young evangelical I used to work at a church full-time but with part-time pay and no benefits. Pastor and his wife and kids all made huge salaries while us staff barely eked out a living, living under the mantra that we were building the kingdom. Christmas bonus one year was twenty bucks—Pastor’s birthday gift offering was $33,000. Spent it in Vegas, the city of sin. How ironic.

I can see why young people turn to communism and other punitive social movements to get their piece of the pie. Is it just? Absolutely not, but neither are the wages in so many of these situations. These owners bring it on themselves and yet drag a lot of good people down in the process and only enable losers with no talent in governments positions to take over.
 
To be fair, this is what happens when the culture degrades and people live long enough to not have to think about what has changed. Ramsey is perhaps the very best example of this, someone who has been successful, thinks his life has been hard, but in reality he just worked hard like everyone else has always had to but had major opportunity and piggy backed on the broken, debt system.

Increasing regulations hurts business owners, who feel entitled because they took on risk. It doesn't help that workers feel entitled too, but here's the rub, and I've said it forever: it's a no win situation for small and medium business since that's the design (especially post covid, which proved it).

Ramsey has a rather HUGE list of completely idiotic takes. Beyond the brainless BTC stuff, he also acted like it was OK for him to buy 27 houses or properties, but blackrock because it's an entity and faceless is not some steward (by God) in the same class. Sure, Dave. Another we've made fun of is of course his total lack of awareness of how laws crush incentive, divorce laws have set up men to not want to tell or give women any outs, etc. Because his wife hasn't and won't take him to the cleaners somehow that means that "you should share everything" in 2025. STFU, idiot, just think for a second.

DR learned responsibility and what worked in a debt, leveraged, and real estate system that had rich people writing its laws. That is going away, but it might take another decade. Either way, good for him. He made money as a commentator not by having any insights, but basically by just telling people to not go in debt, save, and hey, there's this thing called index investing that rich people do.

All that has been going on in situations like this is that these people keep MORE of their money, they are not losing massively like all the people that don't do it, it's literally nothing special whatsoever, but it appears so because CPI is a lie and most people work for 30-40 years; of course they are going to have something at the end of that if they don't lose it all to stupid behavior and massive inflation (usury/stealing by the government).

How is it not just if it’s voted upon in a democratic manner? If someone is being economically greedy and exploitative advocating for countermeasures is bad?

I don’t think it’s just for those that do the right thing and pay people appropriately and try to do business honestly. They get punished along with the rest when these things happen.

He’ll have to stand before God on judgment day, pray for him. James 3:1 My brethren, let not many be masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation.
 
Living in the south, I do wonder when life expectancy is going to plummet. I just got a job at a place and 95% of the employees are morbidly obese and clearly, visibly unhealthy. I'm constantly amazed at how resilient the human body is, but I can't expect many people 40 and under to even live to retirement or live long enough to have to deal with any health insurance issues for long.
 
I am glad in Australia our healthcare system is not as predatory as the American system.

Our government even rightfully fought back against Trump in the tariff wars. Australia currently makes pharmaceutical companies (including American ones) deal with the Australian government as the buyer when negotiating pricing/contracts for pharmaceuticals covered under the PBS (pharmaceutical benefits scheme) in Australia. This along with government subsidies helps ensure that prescription pharmaceutical products in Australia are affordable (for those who have medicare). Trump got angry and threatened retaliatory tariffs against Australia because we refused to let parasitical American pharmaceutical companies suck our blood.

Prescription pharmaceutical products are not Nike shoes. They are an essential product and need to remain affordable.
 
Many of America's healthcare cost woes stem from the goverments' stupid policies, regulations, and "Intellectual Property" laws. The biggest example I remember, Obamacare forcing Americans to get some form of health insurance regardless or else get penalized with tax penalties on federal taxes and some states taxes (usually blue states ironically) and then restricted health insurance company profit margins with penalties, which forces health insurance companies to purposely spend ridiculous amounts. Many healthcare institutions benefited and inflated their prices. Even after Trump and Supreme court neutered Obamacare, the price remains high and many still "need" health insurance. Many Americans are also brainwashed into buying health insurance even if they're wealthy enough handle the costs.
