This is how Capitalism works and I wouldn’t want to live in any other form of economic model. Socialism works until the money runs out, Communism works for those who sacrifice freedom and suck the toes of the party, the rest of the population eats scraps or doesn’t eat at all. I know this because my neighbors are Cuban and have family still in the mainland and the only reason they’re still alive is because of the sustenance that my neighbors send monthly.

You work for a publicly traded company and management’s only responsibility is to abide by the fiduciary requirement to maximize returns for the shareholders. I’m not a management plant, I fly the line and know my place. If you’re disgusted with how Capitalism works for the working man then go out and get that MBA and start your very own company. At least in the USA you are afforded that opportunity. This world owes you nothing.
