Well, it's not like there's a whole ideology explaining how workers are exploited of the value of their labor to benefit capital, with a proven growth of hoarded wealth and shrinking middle class all while productivity is higher than it's ever been while somehow the lower classes still have as much trouble making ends meet as ever. More, probably, given the absurd level of homelessness in supposedly developed nations.
But, hey, we've got air conditioning now.
You know who had no air conditioning?
Medieval lords.
Unless they had a guy with a fan.
Just show me these figures without rhetoric.
You are full of shit.
What “western” worker produces seven times more value than they consume?
You are full of bullshit. Cite a source or shut the fuck up like the useless propaganda pawn that you are.
Just curious, what do you think that "produced to consumed' value is at?
