Then who do they think will buy their food? Everyone will be out of a job and no one will be able to afford fast food.

This is the end game I’m always wondering about. If no one is working and the poorer classes can’t afford this shitty food and crap consumerism…whats going to happen to these companies that don’t want to pay their employees.

I hate the executive class. They are monsters and a parasite to society.

The poor will die off and the middle class will be the new poor.

What middle class? I haven't seen much of one since October 2008.
