Best job i ever had was maintenance guy at a nursing home. Loved it. Rewarding. Fulfilling. Paid only $10.75/hr so i left it and ‘developed my career’ and now im ‘successful’ but at least once a week i have dreams where im back in the home hanging pictures, flirtin with the ol gals, being useful.

So when people ask ‘who fixes toilets under communism?’ my answer is a resounding ‘me. I will fix the toilets.’

      Then I’d be competing against the other cleaning companies, and no grocery stores would hire us if I insisted on paying me and the other workers a fair wage.

      And given how grocery store owners have been caught profiteering and price fixing, I doubt the leadership would make the right choice for the good of the some workers that they don’t even control.

      Capitalism make the good choice the wrong one.
