My wife was fired from a job for getting sick (kidney stones). We were told if we don't like it, sue, but I bet you can't afford either with the medical bills. It took us years to pay for that stone.
There are some very unkind people out there who take advantage of their position. It's a right-to-work state which just means that you can be fired for any and no reason with no recourse. It's dystopian as hell. Most people in these positions put up with it because they enjoy eating.
Stuff like this really makes me want to scream.
And yet people just recently voted to make it all much much worse.
Let's hope the accelerationists are right, then
It’s all we can do. We can hope.
