    the primary habit of successful people is fucking over ignorant poor people who don’t realize they’re being fucked over

      Also, make sure you own at least one media giant. Then, you can use it to spread agit-prop about how our society shouldn’t do anything that inconveniences rich a$$holes.

        I was just at a depressing job fair trying to recruit for maintenance. It was held at a plant set to close in 3 days. Most of the people I talked to were there for 30 years. It was partially employee owned. Somehow a person in power (I don’t know the piece of shit’s title) convinced the employees to sell their share at the promise of expansion and investment.

        The person in power closed the shop, cashed out, and retired. Will not have to worry about a thing. 200 some people and families now have their lives upended at the benefit to few.

        This kind of aligns more with the person you responded to but still relevant.
