politics @lemmy.world•DOGE goons physically drag social security worker from desk
44·1 year agoThis sounds oddly similar to the early days of SS which started as an organized bunch of goons serving the nazi party as security guards.
And Trump is trying to kill it. Has Intel even said thank you?

What about the accountant who keeps track of the finances and ensures compliance with the laws? He doesn’t produce anything but still needs to be paid. There are a lot of jobs which are essential for the operation of a company, but aren’t producing anything.
Being paid by the hour is fine. What’s not fine is upper management and shareholders hoarding all the profits for themselves while the people below are struggling to pay their bills.
But at least we won’t have gay liberal abortions, right?

8·2 years agoThat’s a weird way of spelling fascism.
