Cyclone Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 it's the workers who turn the money risked by the investors into the wealth they later claim so it's only right that they get a share of that wealth. They've agreed to work in exchange for regular monthly payments. It's called being employed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alchresearch Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Does anyone remember how expensive paracetamol, ibuprofen and hayfever remedies used to be? Now you can get the first two for just 19p a packet and 80p for anti histamines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L00b Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 (edited) it's the workers who turn the money risked by the investors into the wealth they later claim so it's only right that they get a share of that wealth.That share is called a wage (optionally supplemented with extra BiK perks: pension, health, car <etc.>). Optionally also including a bonus indexed on the success of that 'turning' work. The culture of entitlement, strong in you it seems to be EDIT - snap Obelix & Cyclone, that'll teach me to start a post and not check after a long phone call. Haha! Their reps are the dealers! Did your ganja dealer remember to file his tax return in time? Edited June 2, 2015 by L00b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny5 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Sometimes Anna I think you must have been born yesterday. Did people 10, 50 or even 150 years when everybody live in a Utopia and help each other regardless of cost and consequence? No, but suddenly you question why everyone shouldn't get everything for free, the only reason they can't being because of those nasty evil capitalists. It just doesn't work like that.

Bonzo77 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Did your ganja dealer remember to file his tax return in time? If I had a dealer, I think they'd be getting a heavy knock at the door, probably around 4am, if he/she filled a tax return in? However, I don't have a dealer. I always grow my own! The seeds are from a reputable source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waldo Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Is it immoral to spend x amount of money saving one life, when x amount could be used to save 2 or 3 lives? or perhaps even 1,000's of lives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigthumb Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 if the people who don't work, worked then they would be able to afford things. anyway, there is a fantastic array of free (as in beer and as in lunch) software available which is just as good, if not better, than non-free software. ---------- Post added 02-06-2015 at 09:38 ---------- it's the workers who turn the money risked by the investors into the wealth they later claim so it's only right that they get a share of that wealth. So if you don't think folk who risk millions developing new drugs should reap the rewards from the successful ones, do you think folk who invest millions developing unsuccessful drugs should be compensated? ---------- Post added 02-06-2015 at 11:51 ---------- Pharmaceutical companies are among the richest of all the businesses on the stock market. Yet the majority of 'research scientists' who work for them are poorly paid lab assistants, all be it with degrees in chemistry etc. Science in general is not noted for providing particularly well paid careers, with a few exceptions, and tends to be something of a Cinderella profession, even though we keep being told we need more science students. So if it's not the workers who are making mega dosh, who is? It must be very annoying to you that the buzz word amongst the prospective Labour leaders is "ASPIRATION". :hihi: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How dare they push their drugs into doctors surgeries and manipulate their practice and amount of perceptions they issue, all for profit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFKvsNixon Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 How dare they push their drugs into doctors surgeries and manipulate their practice and amount of perceptions they issue, all for profit! Good job we have organisations like NICE who provides the guidelines over what new treatments can be used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
