On a post about judging people’s intelligence, you said that employees are paid off of the pool of profit left over at the end of the day. That’s so fucking untrue that no one has the time to even START explaining it to you. That is not at all how that flow works.

If the ENTIRE store is ransacked and all products are stolen, everyone that works at that store still gets paid because they all work for contracts that have no stipulations about whether or not the store is robbed. We are talking about big box stores and not mom and pop shops.

I think you may have low intelligence, per your own standards.

As a wage laborer, I trade time for a fixed amount of money to be deposited to my bank account.

As an employer, I agree to pay employees a wage based on some existing contract.

As a wage laborer, I can work harder to sell more product making more profits for the company.

As an employer, a productive wage laborer increases my profits since ((gross profit) - (fixed labor cost)) = (net profit).

The kicker is the productive wage laborer could keep the net profits, or split them with other workers, if not for the employer. The employer has trapped land, capital (building, tools, ect) and a favorable agreement with labor in the form of wages to fix costs. The employer then lives off the work of others.

Employers are parasites. The struggle between wage laborers and employers is a class struggle. Class solidarity is an acknowledgement of the parasitic relationship. Class solidarity, friend!

So you are impliciting saying that this behavior will damage the profit share of shop and nothing else, because almost nothing will be reverted into the workers.

And only once the share profit is not enough, excuse me, decided to be insuficiente by the ceo to fulfill the gross margin of the full multinational company, those workers will suffer the consequences even if there were not any stealing.

It is ironic that this appears in a post about understanding difficult and not obvious relationships between complex concepts :)

And no, I am not justifying anything, this post in only for the sake of understanding a complex pattern

For me, it’s a matter of how little they know the world around them

doesn't know what profit is or how wage labor works
