    Yes, because Tesla is such a snowflake mom and pop’s operation. Such tragedy a soulless corporation that treats its employees like trash is losing value to its very wealthy major investors.

    Go fascist, meet actual long term damaging effects.

    Not got the same ring to it, but it’s not an empty promise.

      Many people have retirement accounts. That money doesn’t just sit there in cash. It is invested in the stock market.

        Maybe the rigged casinos they call capital markets have been a plague upon mankind and need to be a lot more than occupied.

        Maybe letting people accrue more currency aka power than they need to live in exchange for no labor has doomed our society and our species.

        Maybe those retirement accounts that make up a small fraction of the value of the market were just a Trojan horse to get laborers to allow murder for private profit, homelessness for private profit, academic economic segregation for profit, destruction of the commons for profit…

          You should be able to (at some point) accumulate enough wealth that you can live at least half your life in luxury without ever working another day.

          That should be a difficult , but possibly attainable goal.

          You should not be able to accumulate enough wealth to make hundreds of people commit their life’s work solely to your whims. You should not be able to accumulate enough wealth to just buy politics.

          That’s what’s fundamentally broken in our system. It’s fixable, if the right people want to.

    conservatives don’t care about facts or consistency. they care about feelings. They just say stuff. They’re bad people.
