let me explain something to you.

trade is a fair exchange of goods. you are negotiating things you want for things they want.

it is NOT power unless you get the best of the other person in the deal. every person is always trying to get the best of the other person in the deal. that's what drive capitalism. profit.

that's the foundation of marxist theory. profit is the unpaid wages of the laborer.


but the people in power, are not interested in bartering with you or seeing who can get the best of who in an exchange.

they want absolute, raw naked power. where you give EVERYTHING and they take EVERYTHING. the ultimate power interaction and profit. 100% profit margin on everything all the time
