nice, he’s successfully lowered food prices!
I wonder how much America needs to dismantle itself and plunge its people into hell to make up for its share of the net evil caused from the end of WWII…?
(“net evil” because there’s some good and bad, and “share” because a lot of other countries participated…)
This argument has the same flaw as arguments about Americans “not wanting to work” in other jobs that are majority immigrant like construction and agriculture.
If any of these jobs paid well for the level of profit they generated, Americans would do them. Everywhere you see an immigrant filling a role in America (MAGA would say “talking a job”), you’re looking at a horrifically undercompensated worker being abused by greedy capitalists.
The only bad guys in America are the ultra wealthy, their apologists (paid or no), and their enablers. They should all go up against the wall and get a very stern talking to.
Those abused workers are our comrades.
yeah this is how you do it.
like I suppose it’s possible for enough Disney customers to cancel this or that to put pressure on, but if like b Kevin Feige and all the Marvel people and all the Star Wars people and the others just refused to work - and I’m talking the rich ones not the hourly guys (not saying they can’t join in) - I think it would put pressure on in a very effective way. Way more effective than some welder in Omaha canceling his Hulu+.
Yeah I can see a dad making that exact joke if he asked his kid to play the didgeridoo and they refused because they were shy or something.
A good test has to exclude all possible dad jokes as well as changes in single words/ fragments of otherwise common expressions.
I’m conflicted on this one because companies should be transparent, but the current quarterly requirements drive incredibly short sighted decisions aimed exclusively at pumping up the share price every 3 months.
Publicly traded companies don’t plan more than like 3 years ahead because of this pressure.
Dodge v Ford, eBay v Newmark, probably lots of other court decisions, all make share price the only thing that matters to a Board of Directors. Nothing about the workers. Nothing about the community. Nothing about the nation…
Would this help? Not sure. But it would make the 3 month window less dominant.
can I get a list of these cowardly firms so I know who to never hire…?
For me it’s just the knowledge that I have around 100 total years on this planet and a limited amount of reach in terms of geography, relationships, etc.
I can’t swing an election by myself, but with me and millions of my closest friends we can. But only if we all pull together. It’s like a paradox but not quite.

Not sure if there’s an app yet, I found one on the Android store by Arakassia…
G’Day, Bruce!
