You make the boss $100, you wage is $7.25, your boss is earning $92.75 that he uses to recoup the costs of production then can pocket the rest.
Your boss then takes that money and pays off the capitalist state to make laws to take more of your money to further subsidize his cost of business while rigging the laws in his favor to make sure competition doesn’t spring up to threaten his bottom line. Your taxes, which should be used for the common welfare of all, is being laundered and sent to further enrich the capitalist class.
If you think taxes are theft, then working for a wage is slavery
Communism makes it so the guy who is capable of working but sits on his couch all day has the same money as the guy working his butt off…
I have no problem with when people who can’t work are helped, the problem is when people who aren’t trying to work get to mooch off of the workers…
Also, most people aren’t working for $7.25… they go where the money is better… unfortunately big corporations have their fingers in the government (on both sides)
I don’t think any socialist society has ever abolished money so far, though it’s an admirable future goal. The USSR certainly didn’t abolish money, they had Rubles.
I was referring to how the people work and the government takes their money and “distributes” it, but most of it actually just goes into the government’s pockets…
The only people who benefit from the people not being entitled to the money they earn is the people in power (the government)
If people are working and their money isn’t theirs it is theft

Also, why is abolishing money a good idea?
With money it’s way easier to know market value of a good or service…
Otherwise you’re stuck with chickens per toaster or something equally as ridiculous…
