Gift Economy: "A gift economy is a system of exchange where valuables are given without an explicit agreement for immediate or future rewards."

Any ideas for how these could be expanded to help frens or people in general?

An example might be this forum or Wikipedia: lots of anons volunteer info that they freely share, and people also freely share valuable info they can find - there's a kind of give and take that's kind of "freely done" (besides hosting costs)

A material example that comes to mind is those little free libraries, where people freely pick up and drop off books for people to read.

It's not really a "captialist" or "Communist" idea, kind of independent of an economic system.

Any thoughts on gift economies or how we might mutually give-and-take to build better things in the world?

Retards are in charge of everything.

Don't get me wrong. A lot of the workers are also retarded but there are also lots of talented individuals.

But 100% of the management at all companies I have worked at are retarded narcissists that actively destroy the company and spend all day jerking each other off in endless meetings.

And there are so many fucking managers now. Every tiny department has like 3-4 managers and nobody knows what they fucking do all day. You bring an issue up to them or something that would improve the work situation and they look at you like you just killed their dog.

They also like to pretend they are doing something positive so they will implement some bullshit procedure like making everyone fill out safety cards every day and then draw fake graphs about how this made the workplace a gorillion percent safer. Its all a fucking clown circus.
