I exist to fuck my woman, play with my dog, ride my motorbike and indulge in all the food and drink I desire
Work is merely something that I am forced to do to facilitate that
Ghoul shit
Gilded Age 2.0 has been their goal since the last one didn't work out.
They had to begrudgingly push out the New Deal because they knew that a violent socialist revolution where the owners get strung up from their own chandeliers was the probable alternative.
Now they probably think modern security and propaganda will prevent all that, or they're just ignorant, shortsighted, and greedy, and they haven't really considered the consequences.
We never should have accepted the compromise.
Keep workers healthy so they can be worked harder and make bosses more money. This is the point of forcing health upon you. This is why cigarettes, junkfood, drugs and video games are to be banned.
Wasn't there mandatory exercise in view of state owned Cameras in 1984? Mandatory star jumps for Christ and Capitalism.
This is actually the reason why universal healthcare exists so
Okay except they're making us all less healthy..soo..
But that's not the goal of the health care system, at least in the US. Pharmaceuticals, hospitals, insurance companies, they are all part of a larger capitalist system that prioritizes profit above all else. It's a conflict of interest, with the owners of the business on one side and the customers on the other. One guess which of those two gets to make the decisions on how the business runs. So, no, it's not designed to keep you healthy, it's designed to make a profit. And if the largest profit comes from making us healthy, then good for us. But either way we don't get a say.
Get back to work cog! Be grateful we give you anything at all! /s
