  1. ​ @SoloAdvocate When we had no federal control, we got monopolies that had to be broken up. Is that what you want?

  2. ​ @strafniki1080 Boomers coined the phrase 'greed is good'. They are indeed the worst.

  3. If you want job security, you have to find an employer that's desperate for more workers. At the factory where I work they're now offering a referral bonus to anyone who refers someone to them to hire. Job security exists, it's just hard to come by.

  4. ​ @InventaChris Stop brown nosing for billionaires.

  5. What about the fact that most jobs don't pay anything anymore and the rich keep getting richer while the proletariat becomes homeless??????

  6. The United States has the highest wealth disparity of any developed Western country. 18% homeless rate. The media gaslights us into thinking we're rich.

  7. Just stop buying things and the petty bourgeoisie will eventually go broke.

  8. Companies like to give out mugs, jackets, and t-shirts with the company's name on them. They do it every year.

  9. Job security is only dead at places that aren't desperate for workers. You find a place that's short staffed and desperate for laborers and you have job security.

  10. What we need is stricter labor laws and life in prison without parole for bosses who violate labor laws.

  11. Most propaganda is geared towards lying to make people feel better. This video isn't propaganda because it doesn't lie to make me feel better.

  12. The media thinks all our money goes into investment and retirement accounts instead of towards basic living costs.

  13. Exactly. They are the shadow government.

  14. I tell Republican voters that wealth doesn't trickle down. Only sh*t does.

  15. Amen! These people made record profits during the pandemic while my dad got laid off after working for nearly 30 years. Makes me mad!

  16. The price of a lot to build a house on is also unaffordable.

  17. Jeff Bezos is Lex Luthor in real life. He even has the bald head. He wants to rule the world by turning Amazon into a monopoly while paying workers almost nothing.

  18. I'm glad non-competes are banned. Now they're gonna have to put their pea brains together to come up with another scheme.

  19. Tax cuts for the rich only create monopolies that lay people off. You can thank Republicans and their failed Reaganomics for this!

  20. The fraud will continue to get worse as Republicans continue to deregulate, making fraud easier. But rightwing Evangelicals are used to being scammed by televangelists like Joel Osteen, so....

  21. I hate old people for having all the money. A lot of them own several houses and price all the young people out of a home. Old pissants.

  22. In 2008 it crashed. It's never gonna crash this time.

  23. That's a good idea. But Republicans would kill it in the House. Just like they do with all good ideas.

  24. If you're that well educated, nobody would blame you for lying on a job resume. Especially since these corporate robber barrons lie to us via the media 24/7. Lie to them and then screw them over. See how they like it!

  25. How to raise the fertility rate. Step 1: Pay workers more money. Step 2: Pay workers more money. Step 3: Pay workers more goddamn money, you stingy fools!

  26. Because it's not a meritocracy. It's a rigged system. Imagine how pissed off sports fans would be if favored athletes or teams could fail upwards in football or basketball. Why do we put up with this?

  27. They should just start building vertically and move everyone into one big skyscraper.

  28. ​ @AAGGHH4 The stocks will probably be like Amazon stocks. Too expensive.

  29. ​ @LG-pt5kt That's funny. You're talking about the U.S. government. A government whose politicians get paid off by capitalist corporations. Hell, the Republican party itself may as well just have a big sign that reads: "We're owned by big oil and that's why all our policies benefit the fossil fuel industry. Duh. You didn't notice that? Pay attention, a$$hole!"

  30. My job at a factory may be boring but it's in demand, so it provides job security.

  31.  @TickleMyPitz  Technocracy?

  32. If the law gave them life in prison for fraud, those ghost job postings would quickly vanish as the chumps scrambled to delete them to avoid jail.

  33.  @sarahann530  I would rather be unhappy and right than happy and wrong. Being right fuels my ego and makes me feel superior and the truth will set me free. I look down on people who believe lies in order to be happy. I view that in the same vein as I view a drug problem. Only their drugs are the lies they tell themselves. The lies they believe are their opium and it doesn't help them. I would rather be powerful and down to earth than use that opium that would make me weak.

  34.  @sarahann530  might is right. Knowledge is power.

  35.  @sarahann530  As I said in my reply that r*tarded YouTube deleted I would rather know a harsh truth than believe a comfortable lie. The comfortable lie doesn't help me.

  36.  @sarahann530  No one ever became mighty or edified by believing a comfortable lie that made them happy.

  37.  @sarahann530  By being down to earth, yes. As for being miserable, that's a choice.

  38. Corporations are greedy and suck! That's why we had the labor movement in the 1930s and '40s.
