Billy Corgan has been crazy for a long time.

Yeap. They don’t care about the law…they just care about what sounds good to their people in clips.

If you’re a Democrat your car immediately becomes a lethal weapon are you must be stopped by any means necessary -  if the pedestrian is a Republican.

If you’re a Republican you may use your vehicle to kill any Democrat under any circumstances.

Thanks for the bad faith exchange a la Reddit. Nostalgic. Some people just want to pick fights and be jerks, and there’s nothing I can do about it.

It’s weird that they’d release it.

Her last words were something like “I’m not mad” and his were “fucking bitch”.

I got banned from Reddit for quoting Worf from Star Trek.

Yes. Chainsaws are very safe…if you get a newer chainsaw you basically have to intentionally injure yourself with it.

Seems like this is a pointless argument about potentially dangerous vs statistically dangerous.

I’ll concede that you’re paid well because all the training you receive to make your dangerous job safe puts a premium on labour in your sector. Better?

I’m trying to stick to your original question, though: the most (statistically) dangerous jobs under capitalism aren’t very well paid - relatively (like resource extraction), and under communism all jobs aren’t paid the same.

His job is potentially dangerous, not statistically dangerous. It’s statistically very safe. We don’t call air travel less safe because you might die more often when there’s an accident…the analogy hold here.

It’s beside the point because the most dangerous jobs aren’t well paid under capitalism, and you misunderstand communism if you believe that all jobs pay the same.

My statements are accurate and please miss me with the ad hominem attacks…they’re not a substitute for an argument.

Your job remains statistically safe for all the reasons you stated. Yes, your job has a very high proportion of fatalities vs injuries…I accounted for that.

I’m not trying to diminish you or your job. I’m just saying you’re paid well, not because it’s dangerous, but rather because you need a lot of expertise to do it and it’s more difficult for your industry to find people that fit the qualifications.

The most dangerous jobs, like the ones I listed earlier, do not tend to pay very well if “danger” is your only metric.

Getting back to the topic, under communism people who work in dangerous or high skilled jobs would be more likely to make more money…not less.

Your job remains statistically safe. Calling it “dangerous” isn’t accurate.

Your argument is like saying flying is more dangerous than other travel because you die more often when there’s an accident.

You gave me a very specific job title…one that I happen to know is statistically safe. If you have data that proves otherwise, present it.

The OP didn’t say they were in “heavy industry” they said they were in a specific job. A job I happen to know is safe.

Not sure why you’d make an unforced error and change his job to your job. Especially when I literally said your job was among the most dangerous in my reply.

If you asking how you secure your residence against ICE…good luck with that. They have legal access to an expansion of the Patriot Act for warrants, and they have toys they’d love to use against any home security. All that physical security is going to do is give them probable cause.

Uh huh. You voted to fund it in the first place. This fight should have happened ages ago…not that they’ll stick to their guns, now.

Incompetent opposition.

What we should expect to see shortly is a Red State Bar Association that’s respected by SCOTUS, and under circumstances where SCOTUS can, it will force blue states to accept its law.

Trump always has half a solution…but it’s just for the political kick from the announcement and has no policy follow up.

If Trump wanted to actually do something he’d need to account the other half of a strategy and fund both parts: yes, monopolization or heavy ownership of homes should be banned. But that does nothing if you don’t deal with the cost of materials to build a home in the first place, for example.

Your job isn’t dangerous. It’s potentially dangerous…but well-regulated and rated as very safe by employment standards.

Resource extraction jobs, for example, are statistically the least safe and tend to not pay well.

Your personal motivations don’t represent any society, at large.

Your premise is that people only choose jobs because of the salary? I reject that premise. All information I’m aware of tells us that most people choose jobs because of aptitude, interest, skills and prestige, not because of financial concerns (given that all jobs compensate equally).

I’m just quoting South Park.
