Interesting. So you worked at Hostess during a period of extremely high inflation and interest rates, with bond rates skyrocketing as high as 17.5%. And you say that you demonstrated your method for utopian fixed prices and worker's paradise? Interesting, since the price of Twinkies was not fixed during that period, and I have no recollection of Hostess being immune to the early 1980s recession.Jake99 wrote:I worked 1978-1980 in Buffalo, 1980 -1988 in Natick Ma. 1988-1991 Cleveland 1991 -2000 Natick Ma. and I worked temporary assagnments in Philadelphia Pa., Biddeford Me, and East Brunswick NJ.
Interestingly enough, during your last two years there (1998 to 2000), Interstate Bakeries' stock price plummeted by more than half. Was that your swan song, Oh Lord of Economic Utopia?

2004 US military expenditure was about $370.7 billion; total US expenditure is $2.338 trillion, from here. That means you're full of shit, troll.I think the number is 65% of the US federal budget is for defense spending and I say the lines on the map are illegal and inefficient.
As I have pointed out before, war results when people claim entitlement to resources, rather than trading them. Capitalism is the ultimate anti-war -- or maybe you haven't noticed the UTTER LACK OF WAR BETWEEN CAPITALIST COUNTRIES in history?Spend your labor on good things like helping your neighbor not killing those who stand against the destruction you leave in your wake.
No shit; however, there is a niche for demonstrating products offline because some people don't have internet. Is that so hard to grasp, moron?If you don't think the internet is a better place to demonstrate a product you are nuts.

Why don't you, oh -- I don't know -- BACK THIS UP. Minor point, the subtlety of which is no doubt beyond your grasp: even if 70% - 90% of US doctor visits are due to stress, that doesn't make it a killer.I was the only internal problem solver dedicated to that task that I know of in that company and I solved every problem I faced very quickly. China has 250,000 work place deaths per year and 70-90% of all dr visits in the US are due to stress.
Restating your bullfucked claim as a piece of evidence does not help your case, idiot.I had a similar environments and eliminated the injuries and the stress. I play a simple game and the results are miraculous. That same simple game can be applied to the world and the results would be the same.
You need to provide evidence of this waste, dipshit.And I had no help other than the engineering firms and internal engineers who developed the systems that I designed. This world creates problems faster than it solves them which is a problem that I overcame. I need to clean up the traffic jams and waste that has been left behind by the greedy systems that brought us the technology we needed to change the way we live.

I didn't until you mentioned it. However, it is very valid and highly ironic.Darth Wong wrote:Has anyone else picked up on the irony of his "don't make anything people don't need, don't waste, etc" nonsense and the fact that he brags about working for Hostess, a company which makes completely unnecessary and nutritionally harmful junk food?
I would think that, in a perfect system, Hostess wouldn't exist.
The devil you say! Twinkies are the perfect food. The government will pass them out to you via government appointed twinkie delivery boys while you sit around on your government provided la-z-boy, tooling around the government approved internet (if you can figure out the gosh darn thing - not being much of a computer wiz and all). And best of all, since they aren't made with anything even approaching natural foodstuffs, they won't use up the resorces. You nay-sayers are all fools. The Great Twinkie has spoken to me, or maybe it didn't, but if it did, I would be speaking the words from my mouth in which it had imparted to me as though I were the chosen of the Great Twinkie, or someone very much like him. Can't you see that I am the Chosen of the Great Twinkie and the the simple Way of the Twinkie is the only way that our poor, misbegotten world will survive. Can't you see. A twinkie in every hand! Fat kid's as far as the eye can see! You fools have been living with your system of grammer and wages and value based trade so long that it has warped you like only a diet lacking in twinkies can. Do away with big business I say! All goods shall be distributed through garage sale only. The people shall come together and look and sneer at everyone elses crap but some of that crap will be good to them so they shall buy it. It's just that simple! Everything else will be done by our furry woodland friends. Need wood? Get those lazy beavers to bring it I say! Need ore for the twinkie refinery? Ants people! What else are they doing?! Free up your lives to play at the feet of the Great Twinkie! 63% of people without shoes would like a pair. I have seen things that only my eyes have seen and only I know what my eyes have seen because nobody else can see with my eyes. I was the only one to sit on my toilet this morning at 6:09 am. If that isn't the surest sign that I am the Chosen of the Great Twinkie than I don't know what is. Aside from the Great Twinkie speaking through me as if I were him, only not with his words but my words, only they may as well be his words because I am the one that says them. AAAAAAAAAA!!!

Right. And I suppose that seeing a picture of a product on a webpage is going to provide a more complete demonstration of a product than actually going and viewing it in person.If you don't think the internet is a better place to demonstrate a product you are nuts.
As Surlethe has pointed out, all value is subjective. Moreover, different producers can provide the same products at different prices. This is the reason why competition and supply-demand curves work the way they do.I don't want to negotiate the price of anything and I want its value to remain the same barring shortages of materials and transportation expenses.
No shit, Sherlock. But it may still be more economical than producing stuff locally.If you want something that is manufactured on the other side of the earth then transportation fees increase the cost of the item.

Lord Zentei,
Did you get what I sent you? I did get an automated response that said you did not get scan 10. Snuggly swimmer babe should have got it too.
Twinkies and bread are food basics in the US and although other foods may be more nutricious that does not make them bad for you. I don't suggest you to drink 10 beers a day but you can live off it ( I think). I think handing out loaves of bread makes more sense that handing out sacks of wheat.
And as far as the stock value of the company during my time. I can only control what I am in charge of and the facilities I ran kept that company in business. The problem was each time I made improvements, the CEO took them in his paycheck and the people who lost their jobs had to look elsewhere for work. The stock market is the most worthless use of manpower I have ever seen. Its a gambling casino nothing more and those are popping up everywhere just to keep the economy running. Hope, risk, stress, luck, corruption and grand theft is what the stock market is.
I may only have 16 posts but I post other places as well and its all the time that I have. Why are so many people standing behind this way of life when you know it does not work properly? When I look at the fruit of the tree this system is growing, its scary and I wont eat it. Swords to plowshares is my quest and has been since I was a little boy. Each time I or someone else gets threatened, I fight back with words and wisdom and I have yet to lose. Some people are looking for a better way others are content with the wars that rage on.

Loaves of bread and twinkies are two different things. And you can only live off Guiness.

I looked up twinkie nutritional value. Its not as good as enriched whole wheat bread, but it seems that Twinkies aren't as bad for you as I thought they would be. They are also baked. But, you can't live off Twinkies.
