This is exactly the GOP tax plan. Give a huge tax cut to the top 1%, and then claim that the “average American family” will get $4,000 break. Guess what? It doesn’t work that way. Know the difference between mean, median, and mode.
“Trickle-down economics” means we get the crumbs from the billionaires [who are buying GOP politicians].
Why don’t the billionaires eat our crumbs?
I’m dying of stress but libertarians owning themselves gives me life.
*liberal voice* You’re saying that as if exploitation is bad. My dad exploits people. Are you calling him a bad person?
Forbes articles spawn directly from hell in a sulphuric cloud
Another thing that really bothers me about the conversations around ‘riots’ is the amount of people who have a binary image of ‘big capitalist store’ versus the romantized ‘honest local store’ and think they can tell the difference from a photo.
A lot of local stores feel the need to compete with the big stores and treat their employees like shit. There are so many ‘local’ stores out there exploiting teenagers and undocumented people, paying them less than minimum wage, pushing them to work without breaks and to unpaid overtime. And local activists often know exactly who the worst bastards in town are.
When I was young I worked at a cute little local bakery that exploited a hand full of underage workers, denying us basic workers rights and minimum wage and exposing us to constant emotional abuse. We worked long shifts on ovens placed much to close together without proper protective gear and we burned ourselves almost every day. We were given minimal time and no proper supplies to treat burns. I once burned myself very badly and dropped the bread I was holding and the boss made me sit through a ten minute shouting before I could treat my burn. I still have clear scars from that work after many years.
So if the riot ever comes to that town, you can bet I’ll be right in front leading the charge to burn that cute little local bakery.
