A country founded in slavery calling itself "great" is a joke

[–] Frog@lemmy.ca 5 points 14 hours ago

They meant great for certain people.

The richest people are bringing back slavery in the form of underpaid workers. Except this time the workers don't have enough for shelter and barely enough for food.

It's not only are the workers underpaid, they are also over taxed. That tax money is going to back to the richest people in the form of government contracts. Also the richest people don't pay taxes.
