| Message | What do you mean "exploiting workers"? You mean providing workers with jobs? You act like the mere existence of a company needs to be punished. As if the act of providing jobs for people is somehow inherently dirty, or sinister. Taxes are a necessary evil that should be used only to pay for what we spend, but you want to use taxes as a "consequence" for making something of yourself and employing others in the process? |
