A comment on Our Company Is Doing So Well That You're All Fired. Parent comment
Companies exist at the allowance of a nation-state for the benefit of the people.
If the benefit is attenuated, the people, via government, can sanction the corporations.
If the corporation is succeeding and paying more into the public till by providing fake jobs, what's the problem? They're not succeeding hard enough?
I think the error you've made is that you've mistakenly projected your sense of "fairness" on corporations.
Corporations aren't people my friend.
