Seems like your parents gave you a good education how to treat people correctly, but it seems to me that they didnt taught you to take care of your own growth and your sorrows. You said it yourself. What is your motto? Please everyone else, but forget about yourself? You re neglecting your holy spirit that is in you. You talked about christianity? then you should know that father and son will forgive but the holy spirit wont. Dont neglect it, embrace it. You seem to be pissed off that swede isnt working. He's totally right about that, most of us work for some boss we dont even know personally, if its a big organisation. He fathens his pockets, we doing all the hard work and get a penny. WTF is 2000 eur a month compared to those ritches. If you dont own your company and work for yourself you shouldnt talk. you re no better then a guy collecting welfare. We should all stop working for a month, the tables would turn and we would get more grip on our prosperity. We re a bunch of slaves in this period. If you have a boss you re empowered. You should do some reserch about life and the power structures.
Another clueless moron. Neglect myself at the expense of consideration for everybody else. You do both and indeed one complements the other. By doing good for others you enrich yourself and by enriching yourself you can do good for other. The problem in our culture is certainly not people neglecting themselves.
And what are you talking about? Do you know anything about economics. I don't begrudge a man not working. I begrudge a man living off the expense of others. And if we all stopped working we'd all starve. There would be no prosperity but become just another third world shit hole where nobody works. Don't be an idiot.
When a Bill Gates starts a business and enriches himself he also enriches others. The hundred of billions if not trillions of dollars he has generated for others world wide provided millions of others to be very prosperous. He's not exploiting anyone because when he posts a job ad, as when most business' does, they get a long line of hopefuls begging to get hired.
A slave is someone who is, by forced and threat of punishment, is made to do something he wouldn't do otherwise. You diminish real slavery by equating it to a guy going to a job he doesn't like but won't do anything to improve his situation.
A business owner, with his PROFITABLE business, is doing a good thing by contributing to the economy and providing a good or service that somewhat actually wants (that's why it's profitable). If there's any slavery it's the government unilaterally confiscating half your income, under threat of force, when they produce nothing and contribute nothing to the economy. The government cannot generate wealth! In an economic sense they can't give anybody anything simply because they have nothing to give. What they give to one they've taken from someone else. So in that case you can make a case for slavery but not quite.
What is given to up person is taken from someone else.
