Looks like a tiny fraction to me, on a tiny scale. Most expensive soviet film was War and Peace (1967) which cost 8 mill rubbles or $75 million in today’s currency. And that’s with top earners in the USSR earning around 500-1000 rubbles a month, most around 100-300/month. Most movies could not be made in a society where there is zero extra money and wages are so high, investors wouldn’t invest and there wouldn’t be any startup capital.
I’d still rather a mix of capitalism and socialism with good production value.
Not at all what I said/meant. We just wouldn’t have anything non-essential to spend our new found money on if wages = 100% of the revenue.
You couldn’t feasibly fund a movie(33k hours of work to earn $1mill which makes for an awful movie with today’s wages, it would either have to be a 1 person movie or way more startup capital to pay these massive wages), or open a restaurant, you’d be out of money long before you get enough traction, only thing that could be created is one person side project type things like.
I just don’t understand how your 100% communist society would work, who would have enough money to start businesses if they was no extra money? The problem with society right now is that there’s TOO much extra money, not extra money existing at all.
There would maybe be a tiny fraction of the entertainment we have now, how would people get enough capital to START the businesses? If min wage is $30, they would have to be instantly profitable or they would run or of money paying employees and shutdown. Movies could never be funded, even a $1 mill movie would take someone saving up for 33k hours of work.
The only thing that could really exist in a full communist society is one person businesses and not even that really. Historically full communism hasn’t resulted in a cultural boom like you expect, the USSR was a shit hole and people just worked and bought food - there wasn’t anything else to do.
We just need a mix, good working conditions, with good quality of life. I’d rather enjoy myself for slightly less money than do nothing with slightly more.
Sure, I haven’t done the exact calculations, it just means I’d rather have slightly less than the exact cost of production if it means we could actually spend our new wages on stuff we enjoy.
Idk how you expect companies we enjoy to exist if there is no point in owning/investing in a company.
I very much don’t support billionaires, but I just don’t understand how you’d expect to have anything entertainment-wise in a minimum wage=exact productivity. Microsoft isn’t making Xbox from the goodness in their heart.
What would we spend our $33 on? Just our house and food? I’d much rather $20 and be able to go to the movies or restaurants.
Ok, I’ve read all this. And it’s ridiculous, no one will open a business if they make $0. Raise the minimum to something livable like $20 and let them make a few million, probably with hard caps over something like $10+ million profit. They won capitalism, congrats, the rest goes back into the company/taxes. It shouldn’t meet exactly the productivity, just better than what we have now.
This idea is fine if you literally just want to survive, but your perfect world would have nothing of joy in it.
Ahh, I’ll have to look into the options I’ve been given once I’m not shitting at work. Ombi having an app is quite intriguing. What will I, the host, be notified on if at all? Is it a Plex extension that I’d only see when I go onto my server?
I host a Plex server that my friends use, they just text me what they want and I’ll get it. Is there an official request feature? Or are you just talking about asking the host like I do?
I just sleep like shit, 23 and wake up most nights to pee, then a couple times just because and I’ll stay awake an hour or so each time. I fucking hate my body.
Holy fuck you’ve spent a lot on vapes, I’ve bought 2 and only because the 1st broke. I’ll probably just rock this Airvape X untill it breaks, pretty good all rounder but can only really do four 5 minute sessions which gets a bit annoying having to charge it every 2 bowls.
