    it’s insane, the cost. and the root? the insane idea that we should be able to make a profit. and worse, make it off living beings. no one needs to make a profit, only a living. profit is theft and greed and it’s killing our species.

    (he’s right about not owning things. it’s freeing. one thing you can’t get back is time. no things, no chores.)

      We need legal standards for pay so the employees stop being a profit center. If you can’t make a profit without exploitation then you don’t have a business; you have a criminal organization masquerading as a business.
