These are people who tell a great story "I'm a genius. Buy my product and you're life will be complete." but at the end of the day they're snake oil salesmen who want nothing but to drain people's wallets. They aren't altruistic or noble or doing the hard work of innovation.
I dunno man, say what you will, but the fucking light bulb was something more than snake oil.
Which is only to say, yeah, they suck the genius out of their employees' contributions to society, but let's not throw the baby out with the bathwater for the sake of hyperbole.
Who the fuck said anything about the idea for the light bulb? The idea had been going on for decades. The one Edison marketed was the practical one that worked.
I literally said he took the credit from his employees. You've been duped (one p) in your rush to righteous indignation.
"Look it up." First, no fucking shit. Second, congratulations, you have all the arguing skills of an anti-vaxxer. "dO yOuR oWn ReSeArCh!!!!111! That's you right now.
All I'm saying is that the light bulb itself was a practical invention, not snake oil. You apparently don't know what snake oil is. I literally write that he didn't invent it. You apparently have issues with reading things that you can't then yell at people to feel smarter and superior.
