@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... My sister had a 23 lbs ovarian cyst. It was painful, the doctor told her "You're just fat, do some situps!"

With the chance of rupturing the cyst, that advice could literally have killed her. Any investigation at all by the doctor would have revealed "just fat" wasn't the cause.

"Just fat" isn't inherently painful either. The symptoms didn't even line up with the DX.

Maybe it's stochastic eugenics but that doesn't make it *not* eugenics.

@nprofile1q... No, but never allowing any business of any scale to ever under-pay employees is a start.

Nobody who works full-time should ever be unable to afford to live full-time regardless of industry segment.

"I had the capital to start my own business, what's wrong with you?" is still the dominant philosophy even on the small end and it's unacceptable.

@nprofile1q... Eat the loss and learn the lesson. That's the only way forward.

When the rich (even the micro-rich like the small businesses) actually feel consequences for their actions is when we're on the path back to healthy society.

Pay humans a living wage to run your business or don't run a business at all. That's the solution.
