Yeah I can’t even do the math. Take all the native peoples killed worldwide, take all of the slavery since colonialism, and then of course all the proxy wars in the fight between the US and “communism”, and all of the pillaging by American multinationals in the third world countries for resources. It might even be a billion at this point.
I love when people talk about those killed by communism they love to gloss over who killed the Nazis and how that’s part of the numbers…
Learn to grow. It’s relatively easy, not very expensive, and you don’t need a ton of space.
You can get a small tent setup for the price of an ounce and it will pay for itself by your first harvest. You can get seeds for cheap online too.
I’m mostly an outdoor grower (even cheaper and easier!) but feel free to ask me questions if you want to start growing.

You sound young, likely under 18.
This sounds like an abusive situation, not allowing you to get the ability to gain independence. Can you get to a local library? A librarian could probably help get you in contact with local services.
Is there anything within a reasonable distance that you can go to and talk to someone with authority? Even a school that you don’t currently attend, or better yet one that you do. Are you in school? Schools usually have resources for kids in tough situations and can get you going in the right direction.
If not that, maybe the fire department? They’re likely to have contacts with social services also, and aren’t threatening like going to the cops would potentially be.
It sounds like you need to get away from your father. That level of control is abusive.

Jobs that “help” people or are considered “fun” aren’t considered real jobs and those don’t deserve real wages.
Especially if they’re predominately female employees.
Shit paying jobs have shit turnover, and that hurts the company. Most think of training costs, but there's more. Employers have to pay a certain amount into the state unemployment fund for a new employee. Flip that employee and the tax starts all over again. New employees strain everything from HR to IT, accounting and payroll.
I agree with your point but employers don’t give a fuck and factor that into the cost of doing business. I work in an industry with a ton of turnover and seasonal work. They could make a whole bunch of employees full time year round, but instead they’ll make them full time seasonal, skip out on paying benefits, fire and rehire them every six months and pay the unemployment penalties. And rather than hire Americans at fair wages, they’ll exploit our immigration system and import rich college students from abroad as part of a “cultural exchange” on J1 visas and work them six days a week for three months for peanuts undercutting local labor and as a feature of that visa they have to house them too, undercutting the housing market for locals as well. J1s can’t complain and can’t organize or they get kicked out of the country.

Arguably it’s been going on since Nixon normalized relations with China, which led to the factories moving there for cheaper labor and the eventual hollowing out of the so called middle class in America.
It really took off in the 90s though with the passage of NAFTA and the establishment of the idea of globalization and neoliberalism aka “third way” thinking and the idea of the “end of history” (Francis Fukuyama) after the fall of the USSR. (He has since reneged on a lot of ideas that made him popular in the first place).
It most certainly has not been just a decade though. Any fair argument is gonna pin it on being the last 30-50 or so years.
You need to get the fuck away from him and let this man child grow up and take care of himself.
