Social systems are zero sum game between individuals paying in and receiving benefits from them.
Meantime the salaries are stale, salary deductions only increase, and corporations (ehem formally "charities") funnel out billions annually through tax havens and heavens.
In countries where social systems are not that mature and trustworthy (e.g. post-Communist countries) even the most qualified like doctors and engineers pick contracting as a form of the employment to skip contributing to the social systems or to contribute only the minimum required by law.
How long more is this sustainable?
- zanny 6y agoIts never been "sustainable", its just a question of when society wants to bring the proverbial chickens home to roost.
- durnygbur 6y ago"Purge of the needy and old", something like in the Bergamo area in Italy this March and April... and marginalization of the homeless and incarcerated like in the US.
