    I can’t wait to become the United States of Walmart. Thanks for that.

      Walmart can’t do shit without the cops.

      And do you realize how much they’re subsidized by the state? When has the state ever stopped Walmart from doing anything?

        I thought we were starting over. What makes you think there won’t be cops?

        It’s cute how people think scrapping the constitution and starting over will somehow make things better.

          Imagine thinking the owning class wouldn’t be the ones creating the new constitution…

          Something needs to change, but once we open that can of worms were going to see things like:

          “All citizens are required to give all personal data to meta whether using the platform or otherwise.”

          “Oil will be enshrined as the National Energy Source™”

          “Union activity is an act of economic terrorism.”

          Why do you think there will still be wal-mart?

          And why do you think the constitution binds anyone who matters? You’re treating it like a fucking magic spell.

            They are among the top five richest corporations in the world and the leading employer in the world, last I checked. You going to dissolve that power? No? They have money and power, they will make the rules. You have to either find a way to dissolve them (good luck with that!), or you have to have another big power structure to keep them in check. That’s how it works.

              This power structure is based on faith and agreement. Its more fragile and fractious than you think.

              And what the fuck are you smoking if you think the government is opposed to corps? Can I have some?
