    I think companies don’t get ENOUGH hated from regular folks for the insane price gouging/inflation/ice cold all-American greed we see on just about every goddamn thing. Stuff as simple as bread, corn, milk and eggs (im-vegan but I know plenty of folks aren’t it’s whatevs), just super basics have skyrocketed.

    The cult of capital truly went mask off during covid-19. They say everything go up and just stay up. I hate it so much.

      Americans are upset, but because they’ve been so propagandized, rather than rightfully blaming companies and capitalism, they blame things like “being woke”.

      I have literally heard some of these hogs say “our bosses do actually pay us a fair wage is those damn taxes!”

      Americans and America are total loss, the sooner these settlers Fuck off and vanish, the sooner we can recover.

        They only say this because they can see the tax deducted from their pay, if your pay chewue began with the amount of money you made the company and then had a big giant subtraction for what the boss takes they’d have some perspective. It’s cause taxes are honest about what’s going on.
