  • Keep letting cooperate owners buy more houses and not let a middle class grow.

    “The payment of five dollars a day for an eight-hour day was one of the finest cost-cutting moves we ever made." This quote indicates that Henry Ford saw the wage increase as a strategic business decision. It benefited the company by reducing labor turnover, improving efficiency, and potentially creating a new market of consumers for his cars. The $5-a-day wage was groundbreaking and significantly above the industry average.


















  • In phycology it’s usually the parents that fuck their kids up. I see it all the time. If they had turbulent marriage then the kid had a turbulent life.

    From CNN

    “Court documents show that Roley had a tumultuous family life growing up. His mother filed for divorce in September 2015, when her son was 10 years old, and wrote in court documents that her husband had threatened her, pushed her to the ground, and “punched several holes in the walls.”

    “He threatened to sit outside my house with a sniper rifle or burn my house down,” she wrote.

    A judge granted a protective order preventing Roley’s father from having contact with his wife or son, but later amended the order to remove the son after his father wrote in a court filing that “I am not a danger to my son or anyone else” and that his wife “did not tell the truth in her statement.”

    The divorce was granted in November 2015, and Roley’s mother was designated as his “primary residential parent.”

    Sometimes the kids are just dicks though.
