Well I guess if it doesn't apply to us amazing, special techno mages then it's not really relevant and should be deleted. Who cares about the lives and silly struggles of those boring call center humans anyway?

Its government job to take care their citizen. Tax these corporation and use the money for basic income, universal health care, or cheap/free housing.

The only things people actually agree are the government's job are to uphold the law and defend the country from invasion.

Giving citizens hot chocolate and tomato soup when they're sick is far from an agreed purpose of government.

People often don't agree with that except when they agree with the law.

Not in my book. In my book the only legitimate roles of the government are law enforcement and courts.

This will be my attitude until we are all replaced by pirated brain emulations of Linus Torvalds.
