Bill Gates says a 3-day work week where ‘machines can make all the food and stuff’ isn’t a bad idea::“A society where you only have to work three days a week, that’s probably OK,” Bill Gates said.

    That’s literally not true though. They compete with each other over offering the lowest price.

      That’s funny. In reality they compete on increasing shareholder profits by colluding on prices and paying their employees as little as possible. And to be crystal clear “they” are the CEOS/boards of most major companies.

          I’d love to see the rock you live under but it absolutely is how most large corporations operate. You quote economic theories as if they are fact, I’m speaking on the history of how large corporations have acted literally my entire life.

            Unlike you, I work with senior leaders at big corporations. It is most assuredly not how they operate.

                    Liver spots are just a skin pigmentation. They don’t get erect.

      In what world? Outside of government exchanges, you’re limited to the plan your employer offers you.
