    You’re making a fundamentally bad assumption: that this is in any way “good faith”.

    The billionaires and giant corporations can make more money by employing less people. That’s it.

    It’s limitless greed. They don’t care about living wages or “stepping stones” or funding the country or how many people get thrown out onto the street. It sounds like I’m exaggerating, but it’s the truth and we’re all witnessing it. This is capitalism run amok: They can become even richer and nothing matters more than that.

      We don’t have to let corporations rule us. If voters weren’t so fucking brainwashed we could make a system that works for everyone. I’m hoping at some point it will be too obvious for anytime not to notice that a system where give swathes of the population are just left to starve isn’t something we can tolerate.
