What happened to “anything it takes to survive under capitalism”?
Disclaimer: I’ve argued against that idea since the first time I heard it, just pointing out that point who hold it don’t have much ground to criticized the employees of oligarchs…
No, I always worked for small businesses. I mean, yeah, the bosses were still assholes, but not filthy rich megalomaniacs.
Also, the handful of people who do this for a living certainly could find other employment. No one is forced to choose between super yacht crew and homelessness.
The suppliers? Is everything locally grown/made with no outside influence?

I’m glad I don’t work for a rich asshole! Not everybody has sold out to a corporate overlord, I have only had 1 job briefly at a chain and there’s a good reason for that. Every other job has been a middle class at best local small business owner. I understand it isn’t always possible for everybody, but you do have some choice. I know I could make more somewhere else but I also don’t want to wake up ready to suck start a shotgun every day!
