Just recently unemployed.
I build Macs. Not real macs.. Hackintoshes. We sell them under the table and have a separate partner to do the OS install. We make about $1000 per machine (these are typically absolute top-end, and saving the customer over $5000). We also do smaller ones, sometimes even in quantity. Apple can never catch us lololol. On the side, we do normal PC sales as well. It pulls in about $80k a year personally, plus insane amounts of buildup in the business bank account for rapid expansion.

>>25222401The economical system in Sweden isn't good, but it's what we've got. We're pretty much stuck with it until the children of the '40s and '50s are dead.We need to make the best of what we have, and mooching off of the system isn't helping. A little solidarity goes a long way, etc. For the record, this is probably the first time I've spoken in favor of socialism,. My head hurts.
>>25221905I don't get it
>>25222401>blaming the player, not the gameThat's nice quote and I have yet to see an argument against it.
>>25222452>For the record, this is probably the first time I've spoken in favor of socialism,. My head hurts.That's because you're disgusting socialist scum. Enjoy your Union of Swedish Socialist Republics.

>>25221886Marine occupation brofist.I'm currently undergoing deck officer cadet training, should be done in about a year.Nothing like not spending money half the year and buying stupid expensive technology the remaining half.
I'm a freeter.I spend most of my time thinking of ways to get stuff for free, either through social engineering or what I have coined "ethical theft". Useful idiots defending the capitalism system would call it fraud or stealing but that view lacks nuance and clarity.A perfect example of ethical theft that I use to explain the concept to people is walking into a fast food restaurant and filling up a cup you brought yourself and leaving without buying anything. You're not stealing from anyone personally, it's a faceless company, and that company is usually exploitative and harmful on its own so it's not unethical to do harm to a bad-actor.
>>25223039No it isn't.

>>25223170>Socialism>Noun>A political and economic theory of social organization that advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a wholeDenmark is a free market.
>>25223258>Denmark is a free marketThat could not be more incorrect. Check the fucking wikipedia article on Denmark.
>>25223377Denmark doesn't manage private enterprise.
>>25223377It's a mixed economy, as is nearly all of Europe and the US. Masters in Political Science here (also a NEET).
>People arguing about free marketsAn oligopoly is not a free market. The world's market has not been free for most of the last century. Free markets do not work.
>>25223423"Free market" simply means the market is free from government interference. It does not carry any rosy connotations of freedumb and happiness.
>>25221853>What does /g/ do for a living?Eat, sleep, defecate and sometimes sticking my dick into things.
>>25223443Don't bother even responding to me, I'm a retard.
>>25223443>implying an oligopoly is free from government interference.In the 90s, Apple, one of the major participants of the oligopoly failed. The government saw that it was resurrected.In the 00s, the banks of America, General Motors etc were all failing. As participants of the oligopoly, they were resurrected by the government.There is no free market. It's a curtain held before our eyes to hide the fact that we depend on the corporations that seek to subdue us; the googles, the apples, the banks.Dictatorial socialism (communism) is the ONLY solution.
>>25223515>Dictatorial socialism (communism) is the ONLY solution.Go live in North Korea if that's what you want.
>>25223423An oligopoly is a free market so long as they're private enterprises.
Graduate assistant.
>>25223546I enjoy queuing for bread.
>>25223546I'd rather a healthier example of true communism.>No counter argumentSay subdued, it's what they want.Not that you can do anything about it anyway. We are so enslaved to the dollar, that without the oligopoly there are no jobs for us, and as such people such as you - servants of the oligopoly - will starve.
>>25223515That's a free market, it's just that the government is also investing into the private sector.There is really no difference between the public sector buying up shares and private entities doing it.The market is open to everyone.
I worked some lousy bureau job a little more than half-time and applied for a full time job.I got it and asked plenty times if it's 100% sure that I'll get it. They said yes.I quit my old job and 3 weeks later my new job fired me before I even started there.Now I don't qualify for unemployment benefits for 3 months since I quit my old job voluntarily and I have absolutely no income.I might not be able to pay my rent and have to eat on the equivalent of food stamps.I'm fucking desperate /g/, hold me, please... ;_;
>>25221853I run a Technology Consultancy. I charge between $75-150 an hour for my time.I contract with small telcos and ISPs. I do server setup/maintenence (both windows and linux) and I am a software engineer. I program in C# primarily, but I am often called to program in many other languages.
>>25223580>mfw ambien talks about communismCertainly worked for me dude.
>>25223580>true communismohboyherewego.aviYes, tell me again how the state will just melt away after a huge amount of power is concentrated in it to win the revolution and transform our current society into a communist society.Hint: It won't.
>>25223554As little as three months ago, a government watchdog announced that the tax payers of America are still owed towards the sum of 133 Billion from a tax-funded bailout of several participants of the oligopoly.If the oligopoly we are part of is so "free", then why does the government seek to protect it?The answer is simply that we are too dependent on being told what to do, what to buy, etc by the oligopoly.That's fine by me and all, but the market is not even close to being free.
You people really need to piss off to /pol/
>>25223648This smells like a discussion with murrkans about how their country is a destitute plutocratic corporate wasteland.Better get the drinking game out before the murrkans start bashing on their poor for protesting social inequality.
>>25223607>The market is open to everyoneYou're taking an awfully simplified view of an oligopoly here. Also, please stick to one definition of free.Free can either mean that it is "Free as in freedom", which doesn't apply to oligopolistic countries (the entire western world), or free from government intervention - which also doesn't apply
>>25223113I own a McDonald's. When you walk into my store and steal pop, you are stealing from me directly. How am I exploitative? You're not describing "ethical theft", you're describing regular, typical nigger theft. Fucking retard.
>>25223648That's a mixture of government corruption and interventionism policies.The market is still free.
>>25223754No it isn't.You can throw text book definitions of what you think capitalism and democracy are. But that doesn't mean they are necessarily true.Then I can turn around and throw you marxist interpretations of Communism, and as a result how great the Stalinist movement was. But you and I both know that you're definitely going to contest this (and with good reason).The oligopoly has reached the point where the influence from large corporations is so great, that they directly control the market. That is, in essence, the opposite of free.Sure, you ARE free to start your own business in whatever field you want. People do this all the time.What you are not free to do is provide competition to companies who have greater purchasing power, a direct control over pricing (see for example, the control both mcdonalds and burger king have on the price on the burger/chips/drink standard).I can put a sheep in an enclosed field larger than it can possibly comprehend, or even walk in its lifetime. But that sheep is not free - it is simply too small to see its prison.
>>25223722Your franchise is a branch of an evil business, you should find ethical employment. And not all fast food uses the franchise model.
>>25223841By your logic--if you have any at all, that is--any big business (read: not a mom-and-pop shop) is "evil". Fuck you.
>>25224103>any big business (read: not a mom-and-pop shop) is "evil"That's not far from the truth, yes. I'll continue enjoying my free sodas :)
>As adults i assume you all have jobs.Pfft. Yeah right
