They're suggesting regulating corporations properly.
I'm not the one who suggested regulations. For me, corporations shouldn't exist at all.
Cooperatives, employee-owned companies, etc.
Yes, so?
what have regulation ever solved? they just make everything more expensive and difficult for the people actually driving progress, unlike you dirty parasite... oh wait, we aren't in a libertarian Ayn Rand cosplay, are we?
you do realize that this isn't an Ayn Rand cosplay convention... right?
the "no bailouts and as little regulation as possible" is a fairy tale, unless you think that bombing the families of striking coal miners was a good thing.
PS: the no bailout/regulation shtick comes from the idea that you somehow are unaffected by the actions of others
oh, wait until I tell you about the NAP, no bombing anyone that so much as annoys you is completely within their manifesto, let alone strikers.
You are correct in that numbers leading into Covid rose dramatically and started to fall off over the last, I wanna say, year and a half or so. Still larger than before. I do not have anything against hiring and firing on a by need basis. However, I do think that's gone too far in this instance. When you have 15-20k people being let go at multiple organizations, there's something wrong with the decision process in the first place imo.
