Fortunately we have the best of both worlds: we get a paltry share of the profits AND we get to pay for the losses in the form of government bailouts for too-big-to-fail corporations. How fucking awesome of a system is that??

Yup, and because the managers now have no responsibility, either on the corporate or government side, everything will crash and burn and no one needs to take the blame.

We haven’t had anything resembling real capitalism since Roosevelt’s New Deal.

Im not entirely opposed to that, but anything that tries forcing shit like this is quickly subverted, id imagine the company would restructure so that it never had any profits (tying up profits in investments) and even running at a cost to push costs onto employees lol.

This also ignores the fact that employees simply lose value so long as immigrants arrive, immigration has always been used as a tool to drive wages down.

I could see a system where they implement this also but make it so that employees only get a share of profits and wind up hiring hundreds of workers and paying them next to nothing.
