And exploitation. And extortion.

The root issue is that all of the additional productivity is captured at the top, and none of it is dispersed among the greater company. Even reinvestment is now gone, replaced with stock buybacks, which were illegal for a number of years.

In short, there’s no rising tide that lifts all boats, so debating work schedules and optimal hours is still a wasted endeavor. Labor needs an entire overhaul, or we will see a return to more drastic measures, which is the cycle that history has repeated time and again. Work, without prosperity, has no intrinsic value. Particularly when workers produce more than ever, and their efforts unmeritoriously enrich a few.

No, no- not being judgemental and moral is how we got to this point in the first place. Telling someone who is doing something foolish, when they are acting foolishly used to be pretty normal. But after a couple decades of internet white-knighting, correcting or even voicing opposition to obvious stupidity is just too exhausting.

“Charlie, ever played roulette?”

Especially ironic in San Diego, where literally anywhere in the city is a mere 15 minute drive to the Mexican border.

San Diego is full of the wildly entitled and elderly though, so the self-selecting personalities can’t be a surprise for anyone who has lived there.

“But have you considered our ever-rising quarterly profits?!”
