Small business life becomes harder and harder, now it is looting
Outside is really nice
Well, as Louis got his goverment payment (contrary to almosty all toher small buisness, thanks to his contacts and constant public videos) he is back into libertarian dreams and how not good idea it was :-)
Watch small alien that is slowly growing inside Louis talking about "purchasing loyalty"
With time this beast will grow little bigger and we all will see how Louis will throw people out at the time it'll be profitable to do. I tis no other way if he follow current direction.
But now we still have childish understanding of the boss authority, children understanding of management behaviour. It is like old nice fairy tale books about pirates.
Owners and managers Louis, are not bad people, they are behaving the way they do because of capitalism, as they need to compete and bring comparable profits. And if they will be playing in the nice guys game - they will be out of market quite fast.
All the innards of small business owner, little growing alien
What US must do with police? Reform. Need to make good nice police that won't be doing anything bad and will be guarding good business owners and small owners like Louis. Wait....
Police is such exactly because it is guarding "good business owners and small owners like Louis", because it is important part of class society and ruling class now are capitalists, class where Louis wants to be, at least alien part of him.
Protesters are also good if they don't do anything except holding some pieces of paper. Don't touch Louis existence, but if they do - they are bad, bad people.
Issue is that as soon as people realise how to reach the justice and have police that is on yoru side - they'll also understand that it is no place for business owners in such society. Will be lot of need for repairs, but not for repair businesses.
Good thing in big business is that in any personal talks they do not tell you this fairy tales at least.
Small sticky business dreaming about good sharks
Libertarian ideology damages grey cells
Google is free company and they just don't feel like accepting Louis ads. Even have formal rules for this.
So, if it is good for Louis - it must be goverment controlled capitalism (read - nice feee money he got and all this ads thingy), but if it is not good for him and good for someone else - goverment must go and fuck themselfs. Logic.
Huge mental errors in Apple strategy understanding
ARM is no biggie? Really?
And who complained so loud about T2 chip? Or about proprietary PWM controllers? Or about soldered proprietary SSDs and so on and so on. Or we can go even further and look at the moment of BGA chips soldering start, and later tot he moment Apple started specially use different CPU models made only for them (also to make repairs as hard as possible!) How it happened that you already can't get most chips on Apple board? Random bad managers as Louis is telling, you? Bullshit. But he can't say otherwise as libertarian glass construction in his mind will explode.
All this happened in steps. And on each step Louis told that it is "no biggie". But it was.
Issue of individuals with limited mindset is that they do not get the big grand plan of huge corporation. They always expect something simple and quick, and instead get very long and complex thing.
This year in the fall we'll finally see Apple final attack on independent services (half of them will be dead already, btw!) and same fall we'll introduce most encrypted ever notebook, with MacOS that will be locked and protected same as iOS. The notebooks that will check each and every component and that will reduce 10 times amount of smaller chips you can get. Prepare for new reality.
Fun stuff
Watch how libertarian try to use common logic and ignore all the science on how capitalism works and develops. He wants back, to the small business paradize, of course he also do not want to return his support credit, but this does not count as principles are for suckers. Future is full of horros for him, and I agree here, it is very little place for his business in the future.
Best Strida advertisment ever
Such products instead of promoting many good things they have do opposite thing - they descredit whole idea.
As you should never approach consumer (even niche) phone productionw ith DIY like approach.
Going again about bad and good people and how we need to save nice small businesses and keep private property on means of production (at the expense of anything else).
Aftr this vivid libertarian wants to find a way to finally impose proper masks mode on people around while still keeping libertarian approach. back to the concept of good and bad people we are.
Another side of libertarian approach (as it is most right capitalist approach) is that nothing will change around despite any of your actions and you can't interfere with anything (besides yourself and your small barely alive business).
So, if something is not so good - you need to leave and find place where it is better.
Worst of all is that Louis do not understand that this approach, his approach, is exactly that creates all this mess he hates so much and wants to run from.
It is big issue with proposals, as repair business is thing run by petty bourgeoisie.
Even one video before it Louis told how almost no one is sharing that they know and methods that they use, why? Because people want to keep high price, they want tpofits for themselfs in the expense of everyone else. Can check history of different masters guilds centuries back - they never acted in common interests.
Even Louis is more and more shifting to ideolgy and values of petty bourgeoisie from his initial simple proletarian approach to repairs (despite totally contradicting libertarian views for all else).
Small service owner constantly ranting on how shitty is capitalism and open market, but instantly in same tirades telling that it means that only small part is shitty, on average 99% small this part is. :-)
Libertarian cocroaches inside the head are making their hard work, yep.
Capitalism is always nice if it is not in your backyard
This is why capitalism always sucks. And it will always suck due to private property on the means of production. If all of this "efficient" owners and managers won't be around - it'll be much better infrastructure and lot of better things around.
And look that libertarian guy wants to do - he does not want to change things around (with RTR he does want to change things, but does not understand how, here he is just scared to even get an idea), does not want to fight for his real right (not the ones capitalists wrote in nice useless paper). No, he dreams about leaving, finding some nice place where it is slightly less capitalism.
Knowing female physiology and aging helps, Louis. So, yes, turning 30 is quite close to the end. Especially if you want to have 2-3 good healthy children (optimal age for female to have them is 18-24).
And it is nice that Louis understand why Youtube itself and viewers love him so much - because he is promoting american dream (yes, the one that you need to be asleep to believe in). And if he manages to open up his eyes and start talking in opposite direction - bad things can start to happen. And yes, ranting parents and huge inequality come from the sole thing Luis loves so much in public (but, of course, not privately) - capitalism.
Why libertarians always get strange 0.3-1.4% on any voting even in US? Well, Louis told it in shortest way possible - Apple or any other huge corporation (but not government, no!) can charge you any percent they like 30, 50, 99% and it does not matter at all, instead you need to shut up, throw away your smartphone or tablet and start looking for "alternatives".
Really? Because of less than 50 people who set all things up and less than 1000 people who get around 90% of all Apple profits people need to shut up? Wow, good idea. May be it is better to do something with this little circle who are literally enemy of the people?
So, capitalism kills. But Louis loves it, not with his heart, but with his scared mind. Just too scared that can be alternative and from the amount of neurons that need rewiring for normal logical way of thinking.
Louis made up new theory that all means of production owners will make collective suicide, as it is so hard to even think about this shitty socialist revolution. He feels it is near, but it is scary.
Lack of education is never good, so defending Apple from legal standpoint very bad.
One more time, Louis:
Law is the will of the ruling class transformed into legal regulations.
So, the will of exploiters is to declare that ripping you by 30% for doing nothing is legal and good. Not fighting this, not placing Apple top management and their main investors where they belong - at the cemetery of history, is bad and horrible thing to do.
And it is very interesting how idealism inside pull the Louis into completely fairy tales territory, where small people are trading "freedom for convenience", such way he tries to pull blame and responsibility from ruling class and materialistic reasons. So such theory has good big foundation - he knows that we need socialist revolution, but he is afraid that someone will get all his small firm from him, so it is better to keep suffering and all else. Fear of good people - this is that allow to kill people around, Louis.
Capitalism kills and it is long nice description of lot of parasites that sit on your head and profit from this. And it is nature of capitalism!
But Louis still be supporting capitalism and private ownership of means of production. Because.. well, scared.
It is also nice top comment by libertarian aka Austrian guy
Long story short this is all the result of government distorting the market signals.
No, it is result of government trying hard to save ruling class. So they act in the common class interest and it frequently means that they make big bubbles and distort things, including destroying whole industries.
So, dream of libertarians with the state removed from regulation won't turn into nice resurgence of capitalism - it'll turn into big misery, unemployment and later fight and socialist revolution.
And ruling class saw that in Mordor it had been also big number of free private property and apartments that was not used for years because owners wither did not have money or also had some bank loan. and thing is, that it is not return to ancient capitalism promoted by Luis that solved the issue, it is the socialism who did it and provided access to existing property to people who needed it and also build huge number of other buildings not based of profits or bank wishes, but based on people needs.
Louis Rossmann, the owner of the electronics repair store, Rossmann Repair Group, said he asked Mr. Weber for a rent reduction after he lost between $50,000 and $70,000 in revenue in April as foot traffic dramatically declined in Manhattan.
The store sits on West 27th Street, where signs seek new tenants for at least seven retail and office spaces. Other shops and restaurants, like one advertising pizza for 99 cents, remain shuttered. A page taped to the window of Kano Martial Arts said it has shut its doors to safeguard public health.
Mr. Rossmann said he appreciated the lower rent, which helped him keep workers employed. He has also been bolstered by an uptick in customers mailing their devices in for repair, and he was able to pay 60 percent of the rent in August, Mr. Weber said.
Still, he is considering leaving New York since even his reduced rent is still higher than he would pay in other cities. Without reliable foot traffic, he said running a small business in Manhattan is probably impossible.
“I don’t know what the city is going to be next year,” Mr. Rossmann said.
Capitalism kills, remember it!
Louis now wants to leave as he need to pay back all the rent he saved now during next year. Smart idea.
“Demanding that small businesses pay 100 percent of their rent in the worst pandemic in 100 years and the worst recession since the Great Depression hardly seems like a winning business proposition,” Mr. Ehrenberg said.
Well, if everyone is here to be ripped off, as landlords think, it is normal thing to do.
No, no, not again :-)
Louis try to scare ruling class declaring that they should not rely on police and hence must not enforce mask mode and hence not introduce lockdown and how he hopes that this time his small business who broke law during spring won't be closed ruining all that he has.
Yes, it is scary, but life is always scary for small business owner (aka penguin). Time to live with it.
Up above the sea’s grey flatland, wind is gathering the clouds. In between the sea and clouds proudly soaring the Petrel, reminiscent of black lightning.
Glancing a wave with his wingtip, like an arrow dashing cloudward, he cries out and the clouds hear his joy in the bird’s cry of courage.
In this cry — thirst for the tempest! Wrathful power, flame of passion, certainty of being victorious the clouds hear in that bird’s cry.
Seagulls groan before the tempest, — groan, and race above the sea, and on its bottom they are ready to hide their fear of the tempest.
And the loons are also groaning, — they, the loons, they cannot access the delight of life in battle: the noise of the clashes scares them.
The dumb penguin shyly hiding his fat body in the crevice … It is only the proud Petrel who soars ever bold and freely over the sea grey with sea foam!

Libertarian logic.
Apple has right to set any price, if you don't like it - you are not lucky guy and should buy other cheap stuff, pass on Apple.
Lenovo has right to set any price, if you can't buy it - do not complain, just choose other option.
Any landlord has right to set any price, just choose good one among many available options. If you can't find good one in your city - go to cheaper city.
Landlords who try to cheat you are not bad, it is normal business practices.
But
After you signed contract with landlord and you are Louis, you can start arbitrarily pay 50-60% of rent referencing COVID, same time looking to buy $800 thousands home for cash and declaring how business is good. As landlord comes and ask why you decided to do that you did and to check your profits - you tell him to go fuck herself or go to court (in the time all of them are closed), because profits allow you to pay full rent without issue.
"Logic".
