But it’s also run by people?

What, a corporation? Of course it is...and owned by people...maybe even you.

So do think corporations or heck anybody should be able to do whatever they want?

Yeah, pretty much. It's a concept called economic freedom. Something we used to have in the USA before the socialists took over. That's what made America great.

What if every single job paid 9 bucks an hour and you had to work 140 hours a week under conditions in which 10% of the workforce lost limb every single day.. would that be ok with you?

No, but that's an outrageous question, a scenario that would never happen in a free market system....Besides, you don't actually have a right to have a job.

By the way I aint worried about my money.. I’m doing just fine thank you.. I don’t want your money.. and my portfolio is in good shape too thanks. :)

Why you evil corporate pig.

You are a person who doesn’t understand his history.

You do realize the unions were created out of outrageous working conditions. They just festered into their own greedy organizations which is why Conservatives hate them today.

When voters go for a 90% top end tax rate again, the wealthy will have no one to blame but themselves.

Here is an economic lesson for you. Bubbles are created in an economy where wealth is concentrated way too much at the top end. 1% of the people are too connected and they all want a shot at making more money, so money follows money. Pay workers more and keep more out of their hands and their fortune is more stable.

But you probably don’t know economics either.
