We make feeding the homeless illegal, we sack people for eating leftover food. and people say socialism doesnt work. CRAPitalism is just  complete disaster for so many people, lets watch the bootlicking filth come in and defend the company.

Don’t think this episode is an indictment on capitalism. It’s a middle manager at a mediocre law firm unable to think outside of their agreed upon boxes. The kind that posts inspirational gumph on LinkedIn and thinks when they crossed the 6 figure salary mark they ‘made it’ in life. Brainless box tickers would exist in a socialist system too. Luckily the cleaner will get reinstated and hopefully get to slap the moron bespectacled two pints of lager on a Friday lunchtime Nigel solicitor in return

Yes indeed.  I can see why a cleaning company would have a rule about not taking anything from a customer site.  What I cannot understand is why anyone would go so far as to complain to their employer about a leftover sandwich which they were literally going to put in the bin.  You really have to wonder about some people.

I feel there might be much you "miss"

or international...

 

We all want to help those less fortunate than ourselves, but as we consider different ways we can help, we need to consider how to approach homeless food safety. However, America might have taken it a bit to far. Since January 2014, the United States has considered this issue and since 21 cities have placed bans on sharing food with homeless people and another 10 more cities are planning to follow suit.

The new regulation makes it illegal for people to freely give food to the homeless. Only those with a permit are allowed to distribute food in public.



This is something that should shock you: In most States and Territories across Australia it’s illegal to beg for money.

If a homeless person is caught begging in South Australia, they’ll face an on-the-spot fine of $250, regardless of circumstances. In Melbourne, some advocacy services have reported homeless clients racking up fines as large as $50,000 for begging.

“Begging is broadly illegal for a number of reasons. Vagrancy, as it used to be called, was punishable, but in reality what it meant was that people who were poor could be taken off the streets and effectively be fed,” Bill Potts, the President of Queensland Law Society, said when interviewed recently on The Project.

“What’s the point of [the fines], it merely adds to their misery – and effectively ends up in a cycle of poverty, and unfortunately incarceration,” continued Potts.

you’ve made a bit of a jump here. Whether you have capitalism or socialism, you’ll still have law firms.. and you also can’t assume if someone is a bad boss that it’s because of capitalism.  It could just be because they are a moron.

So what's stopping you from living in a socialist country?

Sounds like you have a thing against lawyers, bad experience? Joking aside there are few and far between decent ones having dealt with plenty.

Yes true. I will find any reason to rant against legal. They are always the ones who hold up the process, think they do gods work, add very little value and only care about charge out rates. They are a necessary evil and the magic circle have a grip on all the work, so they don’t need to act commercially. And they’re so boring when they take you out after completion
