Who are they?

tl;dr was looking for a bel air copypast at the end, but it seems like you’re just some loony.

I’m a true Lemmy progressive then, I always said we should use MJ instead of Kwh. We have SI standards for good reasons.

Who is MJ?

Some do. Not many.

He paid all of them before making the video

Being an irresponsible fuckhead and endangering random people can be illegal everywhere

Well, given your own description of the scenario

When your boss has four people in the office to do six people’s jobs, and the VP just said they’re cutting headcount by two.

I would not count on ever getting a promotion or better project anyway.

I’m not a communist so i don’t necessarily see a problem with private property, as long as there is a limit on the accumulation of it and a stop on avoiding responsibility for a companies actions.

Not missing the deadline just conditions your boss to do the same next time.

Untill you realize that there are a lot of kinds of work and solutions them into three groups is nooit fair to a lot of them either. You can keep cutting it up in smaller equivalents, but in the end what you’ll have is basically money.

Oh no, global warming is only going to speed up like this.

The problem with labour hours is that it doesn’t compensate for more (or less) hard or unpleasant work.

No, never even implied that. But in any system we need something that can be exchanged for labor in carrying quantities so we can give more to the people who do the shittiest jobs. Whatever system you come up with, it’s not going to work without money.

Do you realize that Cuba has socialized medicine and their health outcomes are far better than the United States?

Yes, I’m not in the US. And Cuban surgeons don’t have garbage duty.

Yes, paying more for the shitty jobs.

If you schedule that surgeon for garbage duty there won’t always be another surgeon available, so you’re basically telling the patient they have to wait to get surgery because the surgeon is on garbage duty.

Surgeons take time off work and people don’t die because of it.

Actually this does happen. The workload for most surgeons is maxxed out to the point where taking less time off would cause more deaths because of errors due to exhaustion.

Living in a nice society is all the motivation people need.

You might want to read up on the bystander effect. You do the dishes because no-one else is going to do it. But as soon as there are others who can do the job people will just stand around and let other die before they put in the effort.

Might have been Canadian or British. Not everything happens in the US you know.
