And H1B1 visas are state sanctioned indentured servitude. They are more competitive because the company owns their right to work in the country. If they leave the company, they get kicked out. So they have to work for less money.

should be able to vote on your tax allocations

How did they get to the point of vast enough wealth to influence one of the most powerful nations in the world in the first place, of not by slitting throats?

Hahahah this is hilarious. https://youtu.be/pZk6ia1vFAc

I didn’t slit any throats 😉

And you're not rich

Corporations will generally do whatever maximizes their profits and minimizes expenses, even if that is harmful to the public. I would not trust big business to be totally deregulated.

They also build that capital using the power of the state

Which is why they should be forced to give something back

That's why they hire illegals for $3/h to work the farms

Lobbying has stupid high ROI

How much should they “give back?” What did they “take” to begin with?

My company pays millions in taxes every year as it is.

We hav a 500k bill coming up in December just because of the inventory we have on shelf.

You're subsidizing larger businesses because they got to the top through shady means, and then used their influence to screw you

I think I’m subsidizing browns mostly.

That too

There's more than 1 problem in America

They use the power of the state to provide security to protect capital and to help them build distribution networks. They would have nothing without the state. They should give back whatever is necessary to ensure a good standard of living for the workers while still keeping the business productive.

Getting rid of browns doesn't solve everything

Employing people now is expensive. It costs me so much money to hire someone.

There's a reason Amazon exists in the US and not in Somalia. The state here is better.

Before we even discuss their salary.

All because of the regulatory climate.

Because you're competing with people who hire illegals, who lobbied the government for their ability to do so, to gain advantage over your business

I'm not a full commie who is gonna say that corporations commit theft or whatever. Plenty of businessmen are good guys.

I would rather take away their right to lobby than regulate myself even more.

Regulations on hiring illegals have hidden implications

We were sued once by the state because we accidentally hired one who had all the valid paperwork and passed a background check.

I agree — don;t hire them. But law has unintended consequences.

It’s not a magical wand.

And before I’m criticized for hiring a Mexican, the state requires we are diverse.

Or else we get sued....

They got that right first. And they got that right because they grew up in unfettered capitalism, and amassed so much wealth that they were able to BUY THE GOVERNMENT

@Virgil Exactly.

How can you purchase government pull in the economy if they have no power to exercise control over it to begin with?

Money is power

If you have enough money, you buy power

They do have power to exercise it unless we go full ancap

Interesting debate, of course. But please do understand that for every law, there is often an unintended consequence.
