    Why do owners beat their slaves? It’s the same question.

    For the love of the game, I guess. They like torturing the poors.

      Sad but true. If they were primarily concerned with running a profitable operation, they’d understand that treating your workers well is good for business. But no, they get off on the cruelty.

    Bribing politicians is cheaper than providing water, cooling, and breaks.

    Because Republicans undo everything. That’s what they do. If you don’t want them to dismantle large parts of the government, don’t vote for them and don’t stay home.

    Seems counterproductive though. It’s one thing to abuse illegal immigrants desperate for a job and who are not allowed protection, but once you terrorize them, seems like the remaining workers are more likely to have options
