you live in a company town, we all do.
You might not realize it until something like the East Palestine train explosion happens and you find out all the town has been bribed by the corp for just such occassions. Whatever corps want, goes, esp in our courts, but most time it never gets that far, they just buy off the rule makers in the first place

their profits are stolen from the workers and when there is NO penalty for this theft, it will continue. Imagine if you stole a quarter billion dollars and if you get caught, all you have to do is say whoops and give it back? That would create a mighty incentive to steal from your employees #CapitalismIsKillingYOU #StrikeReady2024

if you take all the civil asset forfeit that DONT end in a criminal conviction, that amount would be more that all the thefts committed by every criminal in the country 10 times over.
