Small businesses are doing fine and the price of your home will go up indefinitely, and faster than the rate of inflation.
Stop being lazy. What's next, unionizing?
"Keep them busy so they won't pay attention to lies" - Pharaoh in reference to the enslaved Jews
Ever wonder why free thinking, "individualistic" people are so often encouraged to start small businesses? All small businesses work for the same conglomerate anyways, at the end of the day. Keep them busy.

He might want to do an internship to keep his skills learned in college honed, maybe it will turn into something better...

The vast majority of drug dealers never make any substantial amount of money and often end up dead, permanently injured, or in the slave trade. They make enough to get by.

Well, bobs_uruncle - here we are....whining about how "they" are screwing us...and will continue to screw us...until the hole's threads are entirely stripped bare...
Can anything be done?
Is there a Remedy? (Black Crows reference)
You are obviously an intelligent individual... What can be done?
We must get into their heads...
Into their...strategies...and...schemes...and
- turn the tables.
How?
The same as has been done throughout history - (think WWII) - where former foes & enemies lay down their differences and unite as allies in opposition...to the threat.
Can we do it?
Is It Possible?
It is... We could, literally, get it started...here...
... BUT ...we're more interested in arguing and debating with, and slaughtering...each other... ... ...
...All the "do-gooders" expressing their 'do-gooding' philosophies...but...won't set down their pitchforks long enough to actually DO ANYthing...
Yeah - I had a business. Did great for a couple of years - and...I won't go into 'why' I elected to shut it down, except to say that, the Ayn Rand quote was so close to a prophetic dissertation that I'm still in awe.
Anyway. Not picking at you or anyone. I do, however, believe ATS has enough intelligence to actually find a way to DO Something about this...
Thanks for the thread!
