Twenty years ago, in the midst of a multi-day labor with my son, I asked the labor and delivery (L&D) nurse when I might expect to finally deliver. She smiled, squeezed my hand in between contractions, and told me, “The baby will come when he is ready to. These things don’t happen on a schedule!”
I always point out that the capitalist robber barons profit directly from having a pre-born, pre-literate workforce pool, they just want it for free.
Part of their whole socialism for costs capitalism for profits thing.
