I wouldn't abort a child, even if wasn't convenient for me, just like I didn't abandon my child, even though maintaining a every other weekend, and 35% net income child support assessment was rather inconvenient for me. I don't care what statistics say about the average parent. This is my life, and I live it rather directly and in an upright manner regardless of circumstance so the statistical likelihood argument is irrelevant because the likelihood of me being a "deadbeat dad" is zero % whilst in this actual reality the likelihood of my children's mother being deadbeat mother is 100%, because she is RIGHT NOW.

Now that we have that covered. Women aren't doing the majority of the work in my personal experience. Although, at my last employer the director of operations above me at the company did do more work than me, had more responsibility (as I was only responsible for QB admin work, procurement, pricing, account management, and supply management, but she was also paid over double what I was being paid so in my experience the gender pay gap is a myth I have not actually seen in practice firsthand.

No, I'm not antifa progressive, but I am progressive in some aspects. Foremost, I am Christian, and I believe without a strong christian ethic, capitalism is quickly corrupted As is every political framework, because without Christian ethics self-serving corruption inevitably corrodes the system.

With that said, I would rather live in a system where publically traded companies exist, because once one obtains a fairly decent grasp of the mechanisms by which corrupted greed operates through their institutionalized outlets, a fairly accurate assessment can be assessed in the behaviors of underlying stocks which provides an opportunity for one to capitalize on the mistakes they reveal in their premise. I don't believe a system can exist where flat wage can be trusted to be sufficient for laborers by hegemonic forces intrinsic to all economic systems.

Contrarily, I surmise that you believe true trust can ever be established between the hegemony and the proletariat when all of the evidence throughout history points to the contrary.

That said, I reject vapid consumerism understanding that if the system is built to support consumerism then forgoing participation in said consumerism automatically catapults one with the ability to obtain a semblance of financial security in it's stead, since allocations for vapid consumerism obviously have to be built into the pay model of said institutions or else they wouldn't be able to operate, and would thus crumble under their own bloat.
