this is just sad. fuck these guys
Its so fucking easy for em. Maybe we can trick people into liking each other.
Maybe we can abuse religious doctrine that teaches about loving a neighbor or something.
All we got from that is that since Obama won in 2012, the moment you call out the religious right, liberals and many leftists will go "um, ackchually, real christian are not like that", all because some attributed his win to being a "good christian" (he didn't divorce his wife, to then go on wanting to ban abortion, porn, etc.). Basically it turned into yet another wedge issue.
The book 'Freakomomics' deals, among many others, with the similarities between a corporate giant and a regular criminal organisation. In short, petty criminals risk death or prison for only two reasons: a) they feel they have no other choice and b) they are hoping, one day, to become part of the top members. That's about it. Think about it for a while and the argument is easily transposed to the '''legal''' corporate world, which also explains why middle managers tend to be obedient assholes who, instead of being mad at those exploiting them, exploit their underlings themselves.
"We don't want to end the exploitation. We want to become the exploiters!" - Rom, DS9 "Bar Association".
50/hr guy is not welcome in my home, not because of his class but because I don't like bootlickers and that's a bootlicker right there.
Ideally we would get them on our side, as we need as many comrades as possible. How to do that, I don't know. Lost case if they're a liberal.
Financial obesity is an existential threat to any society that tolerates it, and needs to cease being celebrated, rewarded, and positioned as an aspirational goal.
Corporations are the only ‘persons’ which should be subjected to capital punishment, but billionaires should be euthanised through taxation.
Financial obesity? More like socioeconomic cancer.
It's not just an excess of adipose tissue. It's a malignant tumor, and it's capable of metastasizing. It's already in society's lymph. We're cooked.
Where I live, in Washington state, there isn't an income tax however, finally they're implementing one on people making over 1M/yr. There were people out protesting that definitely don't make 1M/yr. It's wild.

Every time someone blames left vs right, Dems vs GOP, this is what I think of. It is really the consolidation of income and wealth with the very few at the top that is the problem.

I had a boss years ago who owned a temporary agency, and I had the pleasure of watching him berate his two receptionists -- who made $7 an hour and who had absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with the success of the business -- because his monthly income from the business had dropped from $40,000 to $25,000. Meanwhile he spent his entire day playing solitaire and listening to the Rush Limbaugh show.
The CEO of my company makes almost $40,000 a day and all he has to do is play kissyface with congressmen.
The mouse at by shared office computer still has a fucking ball in it.
