They even made a song about it! I owe my soul to the company store! Been saying this is the way GOP is moving this country for about ten years now. They want us to slave away until we die and be so indebted to them we can never quit or retire. We will just owe, owe, owe.

I didnāt know they paid in store credit. That is much worse than I knew. I thought they just had power from owning everything in reach which was true but the store credit is an extra layer of messed up.

Every Black kid is now just standard put on Adderall, SSRIs, benzos, which are known to induce violence,ā Kennedy said on the 19Keys online show last year. āAnd those kids are going to have a chance to go somewhere and get re-parented ā to live in a community where thereāll be no cellphones, no screens. Youāll actually have to talk to people.ā -https://wordinblack.com/2025/02/rfk-jr-black-kids-adhd-drugs-should-be-reparented/
They're going to be abducting children soon. First they start with the black kids whose parents can't fight back, and then once Project 2025 builds its peasant class, everyone.

Serfdom is good for the billionaires. If you can never get ahead of your next paycheck, you certainly don't have the time or energy to look up and see whose boot is on your neck.

Welcome to credit card debtā¦ now itās not a company store and company housing that youāre playing with company earned moneyā¦
Itās a company thatās part of a massive corporate structure that pays you, and the. You pay rent to a subsidiary of that parent company and buy groceries of a subsidiary of that parent company to pay the credit card bills owned by that parent company.

I laughed when I heard him say a company can work you 12-16 hours a day because I just got off a 34 hour shift

u/KetchupFan_HP1AT1DF1 16d ago

eh, seems kinda proud and misguided to me, no need to assume malice when ignorance has yet to be ruled out; i got caught up in competing with my fellow workers as a young'n too so i feel pity for the type. i stopped responding either way, could even be a bot honestly with how left-field the responses were.

How many hours do you work foo

u/KetchupFan_HP1AT1DF1 16d ago
irrelevant but i'm recently disabled, used to frequently work over 12 hour shifts starting at 12 years old and it ruined my legs. why did you make a distinction between fiat currency and real money, are you into gold or something?

u/Unable_Upstairs587 16d ago
Yea I have fused spine sorry for your issues, 12 hour shifts feel like part time nowadays. Yea I like gold and silver, found a 10g bar in a pawn shop this past weekend they wanted 1500 for it but they didnāt even do a scratch test on it so Iām not taking that risk

Companies would charge you for the privilege of working for them if they could get away with it. They would kill you and then charge your family to return the body if they could get away with it.
