Your punishment for refusing to work
There is no form of society that can function without people working.

We are not slaves by quite some stretch, as much as Republicans want that back. “Wage slavery” is a fun term, but it doesn’t actually reflect the variety of options people have available to them that real slaves do not.
As long as we can unionize, the chains cannot bind us.

Wow, people think about their own countries more than other countries. Who would’ve thought!
That issue came about because of poor procedure and poor enforcement. Instead of being “you are fired immediately if camera is screwed with” it was “yeah you’re chillin”

Most I’d have is a mild disagreement with the statement that it’s impossible to have local places–I feel like only minor adjustments would be needed for many goods in relation to that.
Shouldn’t be shopping at walmart. Incredibly anti labor practices.
Everyone is raising prices with this bs why single out walmart 😆
