They try to squeeze the last bit of productivity out of the workforce - while salaries stagnate.
Sure, there are studies that show that a good work-life-balance (like the 4 day workweek) increase productivity and reduce sic days - but that doesn't feel right.
It gives the boss a much better feeling to scream at his employees, force overtime, micromanage, set impossible goals and work them to the bone. How can you feel like a boss if you don't increase your workers misery?
The worst part is that the evidence exists. It's just that the US is doing nothing with it. The best anyone can do is sieve through the breadcrumbs they gave us and do the most we can with it.
All very valid examples of defense against an aggressor. Something I see as justified violence. Would you deny that the Ukrainian people defend themselves?
I never understood the complete nonviolence people. Yes it's a nice dream but just look at the Ukraine. Should they just give up? Sometimes violence is necessary.
That's 'Atlas Shrugged' bullshit. "The system" works better if the parasites at the top get pruned. Hell, it might kickstarter the economy if money that had been horded at the top suddenly floats through the economy again.
These billionaires and big CEOs think they hold up the heavens, but if the 1% would die off tomorrow (or get put in jail) not much would change.
Companies would work as they normally do, perhaps even better without egomaniacs controlling them for once. The real work happens much further down the chain if command.
Politicians would have to be replaced, but except for some early voting in some areas the impact would be quite small. There are rules for politicians leaving office before their term ends, or else every politician who died or gets convicted would be a major problem.
We trained him wrong... As a joke.
