@JessicaBelle81 exactly jobs for the sake of jobs is how the government (keynesians) and masses expect things to work. it's almost sickening. its like why the fuck do you want to do somethign that a robot could do. do something else. or better yet start your own business dont even bother with a tiresome job.

But the lust for profit - the drive to actively appraise and choose between different sets of future circumstances, so as to achieve the one which best satisfies your set of values - is the only conceivable motivating force for social change. Without it, man could treat the passing of time only passively, as does a dumb animal, and his betterment would be dependent upon dumb luck and the vicissitudes of nature.
Tucker is awesome.
