“I’m gonna run this country like one of my companies.”
Like a fascist dictator, right into the ground…
beholden to Russian interests
It is kind of funny how the US simultaneously exalts FREEDOM and tyranny. The tyranny being the private realm, where your boss has total control
The issue is that freedom is a paradox; if everyone can do whatever they want, what if doing what you want to do prevents someone else from doing what they want to do? We needed some way to figure out who was allowed to do more, and we decided might makes right. If you want the most freedom for yourself, you need to limit the freedom of others as much as possible, and that’s just what those in power did, and continue to do.
Which is why we should be talking about “workplace democracy” instead of “socialism”.
