@Kalshann@mastodon.social What's interesting is that when companies trust their employees not to just work there for long enough to bunk off for two years and still get paid...they don't. Not working in a precarious, high-pressure environment makes your staff happier, more productive, and less eager to scam you into paying them for doing nothing. People, in general, want to work. We've seen the same with the four-day week. Productivity goes up not down! The American business model has everything backwards.

@ApostateEnglishman@mastodon.world Yeah, there's a reason I reference the US version of capitalism as a cult. It's inane and obsessed with worst practices. UBI, work-from-home, 36 hr weeks, health care for prevention, we ~know~ how to make the world better, and proven it'd be great for everyone and make the bosses more money - and fucking yet... [rolls eyes] The wealthy in the US want slavery - in one form or another. I've never found anything to refute that in what they do.
