@WilliamCharles Ah, the good old days I had working for no benefits as a perma-temp employee of a sweatshop company here in Iowa. They had no air conditioning on the plant floor for the non-office employees, but they did have it in the offices. Such an open, obvious class system there. Also, the plant floor area was barely heated in the winter. They had no machines out there precious or new enough to protect. And yet the guy who owned the company was worth 78 mil.. I always fantasized about killing him.

And to boot, he was a huge donor to the state Repub Party and did lots of business with the state selling them land for government buildings and projects. He also openly hired undoc aliens so he could get away with the lowest wages possible for low skill employees. But, of course, he was so politically connected that ICE never raided the place even tho it was an open secret there were illegal aliens working there.
