«la tendenza inerente a una civiltà industriale a trascendere il mercato autoregolato subordinandolo consapevolmente a una società democratica.»
Karl Polanyi
L'economia deve servire la società e non viceversa, l'alternativa è la deriva fascista.
"But rising wages can compress profit margins. As profits come under pressure, firms become more cautious. Investment slows." This is this the crux of it. Usury. Capital funds and leveraged creditors demanding consistently high returns. Workers and their communities will never be anything more than unit costs. Bollocks to their pandering 'job guarantee' or 'UBI'. We need an updated market socialism with public sector work fulfilling human needs.
