In other words, it's just one step above slavery. They are racially profiled. they are looked down upon. They're paid lowwages. They receive no benefits. They are called criminals, just for not being born in the US.

#DanielleSmith is an embarrassment to #Alberta and #obstructionist to #Canada. She opposes diversifying our economy with #GreenEnergy but allows #O&G to suck up funds #CorporateWelfare Yet we have high #unemployment, #lowwages #CorruptCare but she's off cozying up to #Trump #GOP #RWAmericanFascists

Remembrance Day is a day where everyone should solemnly remember those who fought and died for our freedom.

Unless you’re me! Then it’s a time to put on a big smile, like it’s some kind of festive event, and pose for a photo-op!

I even wore a poppy this year!

#LowWages and Working Conditions: Unions report that #Nexstar pays #poverty wages and demands workers work in understaffed conditions with skipped breaks, sparking a wave of #UnionizationNow

Colombo @colombo51.bsky.social · Sep 21

What role did Nexstar play?
is the biggest local television station owner in the US with around 200 outlets.
$6.2bn deal to buy a rival, Tegna, which owns more than 60 stations.
The deal would require approval by the FCC and the loosening of rules around industry consolidation. BBC News #Monopoly

Exactly! It's not just that we're all subsidizing the lowwages paid by ripoff employers. Their grotesque income levels are proof they're taking too much for themselves, that they in no way EARNED.

Corporate welfare queens ? It’s corporations getting tax credits while paying workers poverty wages! Your taxes subsidize their profits. #scam #matrix #CorporateWelfare #LowWages

It’s no big deal to create a lot of low-wage jobs. In fact, it’s absurdly simple. It requires only that employers keep a lid on wages as they raise prices. Presto - they make more money #LowWages #Jobs
