    We should already be on a fucking 3 day with increased pay with how much productivity has gone up, instead we’re just getting ass raped harder and harder while rich assholes keep getting richer and richer with no end in sight.

      No, you don’t undestand 😡

      One day I’ll be a billionaire too and I can be the one that ass rapes others 😎

    • I read the following sentence a day ago and it’s stuck with me:

      We europeans shouldn’t laugh at the suffering of the American people, just because we get fucked in the ass with slightly more lube.

        12.2% of US workers are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. In Europe the lowest rate is Greece at 14.2%, but most other countries are much, much higher. Right-wing Hungary is at 21.8%. Bend-over-backwards-for-US-tech-companies Ireland is at 34%. The home of the bankers, Switzerland, is at 45%. No other European country is below 50%, and the biggest economies France is at 98%, Germany is at 80% and Italy is at 100%.

        Europeans may not be fully satisfied with the balance of power between corporations and workers. But, it is doing so much better than the US.
