Hayek vs Lenin

«Добрый день. Почему вы не на работе?»

38 лет назад, в августе 1983 года принято постановление ЦК КПСС и СМ СССР "Об укреплении социалистической трудовой дисциплины", предусматривавшее наказания за выпуск брака, прогулы и опоздания на работу, пьянство на рабочем месте, а также посещение магазинов, бань, кинотеатров и других общественных мест.

Самым характерным примером его претворения в жизнь, ставшим приметой андроповского времени, были массовые облавы на посетителей магазинов, кинотеатров и даже бань в дневное время.

«Добрый день. Почему вы не на работе»?

Такой вопрос в 1983 году вы могли услышать от сотрудника правоохранительных органов, даже если просто прогуливались по улице или же решили посетить общественное место (кинотеатр, баню, кафе) в рабочее время. Обычно милиционеры проверяли у всех документы, после чего интересовались, почему вы в данный момент не находитесь на работе. Составлялись списки нарушителей, в которые попадали не только взрослые, но даже и школьники. После эти списки передавали руководству предприятий, где числились граждане с требованием объяснить причину их отсутствия на работе в рабочее время.

В 1983 году был зафиксирован прирост в объемах производства народного хозяйства в 6 процентов.Практика проведения подобных мероприятий прекратилась уже в феврале 1984 года, когда Андропов умер. После этого власти СССР не прибегали к столь радикальным и в какой-то мере спорным методам борьбы с низким уровнем дисциплины на предприятиях.

I can't believe I have to spell out to you how a meme works. You don't only need to look at the words, you also have to look at the image. This particular meme has an image of Frederich Hayek, an economist who wrote a book "The Road to Serfdom", about how socialist policies lead to slavery to the state. The meme also has vladimir lenin, who led the Soviet Socialist Revolution which enslaved the working class to the state.

Next time you don't understand something, ask, that's why I made the meme. It is a teaching moment for those willing to learn, and a good meme for people who already knew what I just wrote to you.

Slavery means being forced to produce on someone else's terms for someone else's benefit.

Even if you don't like my definition, it still doesn't mean what you tried to claim it means.

No one said they were they were slaves.

When Ten said is that treating products of someone's labor as a your entitlement, is the same thing as regarding them as your slaves. He never said "American Christians are slaves".

Sure it was. It was a reference to Hayek's work. Read "The Road to Serfdom".

Not at all. A contract in business is a choice to operate by a pre-determined guideline. It has to be agreed by both sides WITHOUT FORCE OR INTIMIDATION, and has to have a clear mutual benefit.

No they are not. I never said that they were. But to Ten's point, the desire to take away their choice to produce as they wish, is a step closer to slavery, because that is one of the aspects of slavery.

Emergency Rooms are subsidized by the States for that requirement; they will collect payment for treatments. That's why only emergency rooms have this requirement, not all medical establishments.

Look at the definition of slavery that I gave you and answer your own stupid question. Instead of taking this into a ridiculous direction, re-read what was already discussed.

well you know. This IS a meme-sharing website, not a coherent argument website.

Only the same thing that cotton does.

Look, if you really want to have that conversation, here's how you can do it: Go find a Conservative forum, sign up, and ask them what wedding cake, cotton, and slavery all have in common. I don't come to this website to handhold idiots by explaining a meme.

Request denied.
Racist hears "slavery" and thinks "black."
