They would kill you and everything you love if it meant they’d get more money. Never forget that.

Corporations would happily use slave labor if that was legal.

We still use slave labor, California just voted against abolishing it.

Yeah. Pretty much anywhere slavery is legal will use slaves. Our system rewards people for destroying society.
