    They have everything to lose and they’re one missed pay check away from homelessness.

      The thing is, the entire us economic system is busy trying to make the distinction between employment and homelessness as thin as possible.

      They want you to extract zero extra value from being employed with them, they want every single interaction blown apart and separate.

      The entire goal of Samuelson-derived econ is precisely to leave people with nothing left to lose. This is why Rights and Deeds and Compacts are so important, they are emotional bulwarks that the extractive class can provide at, frankly, very low cost.

      And the Epstein class has decided to shred the final pretenses of civil rights just as their idiotic war will destroy the economy.

      A lot of people perceive themselves as having way less to lose than you think.
