Its not my favorite word by any stretch of the imagination, but what word do you suppose we use instead?


Idk maybe site specific schools of thought, instead of grouping conflicting ones together under a made-up label with no historical or significant value.
Okay, sidenote, here's a new annoyance: people who use the word SJW.

Anyways, right-libertarianism is a sham.

As long as there are men who - by tyranny of private property - are able to restrict the flow of the resources needed for human survival, there is no freedom. The men who own the resources lord it over those who do not. They exert influence over their lives and - on threat of death - can require the common people to produce excess wealth (see: capital) in exchange for basic human needs. In this way, no man has autonomy over his own body.

He does not choose to be a slave to those who own the resources that he needs to survive.

Individualism is a front for economic oppression. Individualism does not provide liberty for all people, it provides liberty for the few who have power and who have the resources necessary to keep that power (see: Bourgeois). These people are free, but all other men are made slaves to them.

When economics are laissez-faire, the bourgeois strengthen their hold over the people, through the state. If the state can't regulate the economy then the economy regulates the state. Those with economic power elect people with political power and they both benefit eachother. In so doing, the people loose whatever little power that had left in the Republican system and are now subject to plutocracy. The bourgeois are free to use the organs of the state - the police, the military, and the justice system - to further their own ends and maintain their power.

Sounds like us. 38 average, 46 Max a week.

I remember looking up the amount of annual leave some countries get a year and was quite surprised. We get 4 weeks a year (not including public holidays) and after 10 years of work in a single company, you can get long service leave, which is extra holidays.


Most jobs in the US don't give paid time off and I don't think there's a max work-week for adults; minors can only work 40 hours a week max, though. Our average workweek is around 47 hours.
This is a pet peeve, when people use arabic numerals in their writing when its a small number like 3 or 9. like, it doesn't bother me unless its in a story and especially when its part of dialogue.
