They are making money off me without paying me for it

I agree with you but look at the dude's name, they probably are a troll. Regardless, watching the debate between ILikeBoobies and MrBusinessMan, the two sages has been thrilling.

So? That’s what businesses are supposed to do. Make money. You should invest in the company and then you’ll make money off of the money they make off you.

Companies typically pay their workers

I am creating the product that they sell

[-] MrBusinessMan@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Nope, you’re just raw materials to be mined.

Then I own the land and they should be leasing it from me

[-] MrBusinessMan@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

You’ll own nothing and you’ll like it, get back to work

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

You really aren't. You're a small piece of the product that they sell.

[-] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Look, if they can’t afford to make a profit selling people’s data without paying everyone at least minimum wage then the industry shouldn’t exist

[-] iamtrashman1312@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Cool, where's my small piece of the profits?

[-] MrBusinessMan@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

If you don’t own shares you aren’t entitled to any of the profits.

[-] iamtrashman1312@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

You realize this literally sounds like some shit a 90s comic would have had the corporate villain say, right

[-] MrBusinessMan@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

No, the bad guys are usually the opposite. They want to steal from rich people and make everybody the same or do a revolution. Haven’t you seen any of the Batman movies?
