What do you think deregulating is outside of that?
The brainwashed thinks that if industry had less red tape, they'd be able to innovate more, let the market decide pay and hiring, and cost us less taxes in monitoring. All despite history proving that it only leads to the rich getting richer and more powerful while everyone else becomes peasants.
That's why all Trump voters are just dumbfucks. Some of them think they're the strong men that will get to take advantage of the weak in this system, but they're really just dumb sheep that tongue a butthole up to middle management at best. They're the ones who picked on special needs kids at school because punching down is easy and they need a win.
What they don't understand is how e.g. cutting jobs, or not providing necessary goods and services (e.g. enough bolts to keep something attached to the outside of an airplane? The lack of which causing said thing to fall off mid-flight), etc. is the very self-same "innovation" that they were promised. As in, it delivers stock dividends to the shareholders, thus functions as intended.
We arguably deserve what is coming for us. Though damn I wish there was some way to avoid the worst of it.
Destroying the planet, dumping toxic waste into low-income communities, literally killing their employees and customers with unsafe practices.
And then complaining that those customers are to blame that their business is tanking when in reality they just made them too poor to buy the product and/or killed them off but they will get a bailout anyway because they are "too big to fail".
Ah, I was just lumping that into them stealing the livelihood of their community, but absolutely yes.
Killing people - speed and amount varie
