dude ... pls put that behind a spoiler tag. that is a serious infohazard there

i do think that "voluntary" is a pretty clear term. would you still do it if it didn't cost you anything, and it also didn't get you any physical reward?

The tendency of the rate of profit to fall will soon mean that an industry will stop producing said commodity. It can’t anymore if it’s unprofitable. This is where the state has to step in and start subsidizing that industry or buying the commodity themself in order to articially inflate demand in order to keep that industry afloat. See e.g. the “butter mountains” of the EU.

ahem i just so happen to be very familiar with the whole concept of the tendency of rate of profit to fall (TRPF) and you're misunderstanding it here. it turns to be unprofitable in the sense that the profit rate approaches zero (for example, exponentially), it does not go negative! companies continue to produce stuff as long as the profit is larger than zero, which it always stays. so they continue to produce stuff indefinitely, according to the model. even though they make less and less profit with it. no state subsidizing involved here.

this is maybe a subtlety here. something can converge towards zero while also always staying positive. check out this function:

what you're describing is just capitalism with extra steps

i mean, i only asked whether you go to work voluntarily, and whether it could therefore be considered vegan.

first time?

Declining birth rates and house prices dropping are both things the media love to make out are terrible things.

and guess who own's the media's editorial circle?

cannot confirm. have used chatgpt many times to check my physics homework (after doing it myself first) and it was basically correct about 90% of the time.

these were not standard exercises (i think)

were before they started just writing a mini-python script for every calculation and executing that.

yeah, i remember reading that a bakery that bakes bread for $0.60 per bun today wouldn't even have to increase the price to $0.61 if the price of raw wheat doubles. that's how low the share of raw resource cost is in an everyday's item. was crazy to me to read this.

hmm, ja, kann ich verstehen.

yeah but do you go to work voluntarily? would you still do it if you didn’t need the money? if so, then yes, it is vegan.
