You know people invented society some millions years ago because it was better, more efficient, so much so that we evolved social abilities. We are social creatures. We evolved to live together and care for eachother.
With your selfishness you are not only a lower creature in the evolution tree, you are also a parasite for the society you live in.
I have a family, friends and community that I trust, and we help each other to make our lives much easier. They use my knowledge in what I’m good at and I use their knowledge in what they’re good at, and this way we’re always winners. That’s the correct way to do things.
I’m no parasite because I don’t need anyone outside my community. On the contrary, I’m a net producer in the economy and a positive contributer to society. Everyone who doesn’t like what I’m saying should ask themselves if they’re a positive contributer. The only difference is that I’m not gonna let you steal my hard earned money after I have paid my dues. Good for me.
Trusting “society” is a dumb preposition, because trust is based on maintaining mutual interest and ostracizing bad actors, which you can’t do in a society without complex contracts that emphasize the lack of trust, which cause enforcing contracts to cost a lot of money through the current laggy court system. This isn’t an efficient solution for you as a person. You trusting the elites will only lead to your demise, as we’ve seen again and again and again over history, starting from the earliest examples in ancient Rome and the kind clipping coins and increasing the supply of money by mixing it with other metals… because he could. This is nothing new. There are people who learn from history, and there are people who pretend humans act differently every 100 years and learn their lesson the hard way again, and again, and again.
There’s no modern metric that would ever put me in a non “net producer” bracket. I don’t know whether this can be twisted somehow. Let’s find out.
I don’t work in the public sector (hence I’m not paid with taxes, i.e., stolen money from other people), so I’m funded from a private entity that coerced no one to paying me because I produce value for them.
I pay any taxes I have to pay, not because I want to, but because I have to, unfortunately. I’d rather contribute to my local community than people I don’t know who don’t share goals with me.
I helped and continue to help all the people around me whenever they need it.
Sounds like you’re approaching that claim more from an ideological basis rather than any sort of analysis.
The question of whether you’re a net producer probably depends on what your employer does and asks of you, versus what you consume. Some organizations absolutely do not have an even balance between their dollars and their consumption (an extreme example: any organization profiting off of slave labor is undeniably consuming more than they’re paying–that’s just how externalities work).
So yeah, I don’t really expect more details because your privacy is your privacy, but if all you can say is you’re net earning money, I wouldn’t equate that to being a net producer.
Cool! Another capitalist fanatic!

That’s an interesting statement. How are you measuring whether you are a “net producer”?
There’s no modern metric that would ever put me in a non “net producer” bracket. I don’t know whether this can be twisted somehow. Let’s find out.
Am I missing any additional qualifiers?
