Your ignorance of economics is pitiable for someone who presented herself as a candidate for POTUS. You do harm by spouting the stupidities that you do, although you may get approval from Bernie and the MMT crowd. Sound economic thinking is necessary for human flourishing.

No. This is what’s right with America. Companies are supposed to make profits for their owners, e.g., shareholders. Companies are not obligated to provide lifetime employment. Any company that did offer lifetime employment would go broke; more adaptive competitors would win.

Profit over people, the American public accepted this way of life because they're gullible and do not think critically.
Good thing you voted for Joe Biden. His disdain for corporate greed has been a hallmark of his 50 years in politics. Well, that and his commitment to desegregation. #Rejoice

Definitely the drivers of AMZ still haven’t gotten their paltey $300 Christmas bonus. So obvious Walmart lessons fallen deaf
