For every post I read here, it’s unfathomable how much people don’t seem to realize this. It is a literal product of capitalism, that if some businesses succeed, others fail.
The fact that the model is barbaric and corrupt to its core is one argument. But it’s beyond me how much defenders of that wretched train of thought seem to think that some rules apply but others don’t, are just incredible.
When the only defense left for their attempts to pay starvation wages is “but the business will fail” there’s this urge within me to yell “then your business should not exist”. It’s baffling that people just don’t seem to get this, but then again, seeing the posts on this sub, nothing really surprises me anymore.
