The risk is that they might have to get a job too if they lose all their investments.
Lol, only a stupid businessman takes risks with their money. The smart ones use other people's money.
When Bob decided to extract his employees surplus labour, he shook hands with danger.
why the fuck do I need to "sign in to confirm age" to listen to that
So investors take a risk? How many of them gets killed or injured at the job? How many of them had their bodies work down and destroyed by labour?
This is a bad take. Gambling with cards and dice is a financial tool available to the proletariat and a necessary part of any cultured person's retirement portfolio.
Shit like this is why I dodge all my taxes. What the FUCK?! :liebknecht-processing:
I mean... most small business owners probably saved for years to start it.
As always there is a :citations-needed: episode for this

Small business owners are just the attempt by the bourgeoisie to facilitate the growth of a reactionary peasant class to put downward pressure on labor. They're nothing but a tool of oppression and are just as expendable as the average worker. When It comes down to it, it's always the big bourgeoisie on the first life boats, and they charge a fee for the rest.
here's a risk: people with reasons to hate you are alone with all of your expensive means of production.
It will never not be funny how many cameras and surveillance are everywhere at work, even though propaganda has been so successful people are enthusiastic to bend over backwards for their bosses, yet if you catch a boss committing wage theft, it's "tsk tsk, everyone is so cynical these days, mistrust everywhere."
They took the risk of getting guillotined, and you gotta respect them for that 😤
Also, the implication here is that workers do not take any risks at all.
- By getting a college degree (a near mandatory luxury these days), I "took on a risk", no one gives a fuck.
- Blue-Collar workers that work dangerous jobs take on an even greater risk EVERY GODDAMN DAY, no one gives a fuck.
Is it really a risk if I owe it to porky that he NEVER has to suffer the "risk" part of "taking on a risk"? Yet I'm left completely in the dark? Capitalism, the only game where if you're playing on tutorial mode and beat it, you're seen as a master of the game and therefore get cheat codes enabled.
"hey, I'm taking a risk putting your life into a slot machine, what if I lose some surplus value when you die?"
