Going to School to become a capitalist? (lemmygrad.ml)

As part of my apprenticeship I am doing a business management course.

I'm going to have to be careful not to out myself as an ML (if I haven't already).

The economics portion of the course is pure lliberal bullshit.

But I guess that's what I signed up for.

I essentially wrnt the apprenticeship way of this and did 20 years as a class traitor before i knew what marxism was. I was very good at it but its all idealism and the liberal "revolutionary" idea is ethical companies who have a veneer of friendlyness towards the slaves. For example "less hierarchy" ie the boss has even less idea what hes doing and you sit down and sing in your unpaid break before producing more useless crap. Its devastating. Working in these new age companies ruined capitalism for me more than working in brutal, highly hierarchical companies because there you at least werent told youre free.

I know that I won't get out of the rat race, as it were. I just needed a change of scenery. After some years of working in front of a screen and having nothing of substance to show for it I needed to do something with my hands.

Understood! I might study it at some point for the same reasons. Economics is only for you if you have no empathy.
