Sticks48 comments on May 20, 2021:

With more and more companies going public in the last few decades the only thing they are concerned with are the shareholders and their compensation. Fuck the employees. Greed at the top will bring this country down as it has kingdoms, empires, and countries in the past if we don't change the way this economy works. The number of billionaires in this country does not make for a healthy economy. People shopping at Walmart, Target, and Penny's do drive the economy. A billionaire buying a Ferrari does not drive the economy and that is billions of dollars sitting somewhere collecting interest and doing nothing for the economy.
