@davidaugust #ProfitsOverPeople is the guiding principle of corporate America and it has been on a meth driven steroid rage rampage for 40 years. Covered up by smiling PR b.s. saying the exact opposite with all the spit and polish of an army of ad executives, literally

Meanwhile, profits soar again, stockholders are happy, and tens of thousands of highly skilled people are left twisting in the breeze.

Don’t kid yourself. The tech sector didn’t “overhire.” They finally brought in the right number of people to get the job done, and we were the ones punished for it.

A profile of #EmilyMBender mentions attempts to equate RichGuy machines with humans. It reminded me of #Chomsky in #ProfitsOverPeople:
> There are no rights of property, only.. rights of persons with property.. I have a right to my car, but my car has no rights. The right.. differs from others in that one person’s possession of property deprives another of that right if I own my car, you do not; but in a just and free society, my freedom of speech would not limit yours.

As a Pennsylvanian I’m furious that a large corporation is trying to override a PA state law that protects individuals so it can’t be held accountable for its actions. Norfolk Southern (yes, the Ohio derailment accident company) is trying to get SCOTUS to overturn PA law. And it won’t just affect Pennsylvania and the railroad industry. Everyone should be mad and worried about it.
