Problem with mom and pop stores is the owners are still operating to maximize profit.

This intrinsically involves giving the least while charging the most. They're going to be screwing everyone over as much as they can, while hiding behind the 'mom and pop' shield.

This is why I try to avoid using words like socialism and communism. Everyone has their own ideas of what they mean, and most of them aren't exactly wrong because these are broad terms with different sects. So many times a person mentions either word, and then guys like you come out of the woodwork to be like "umm, actually..." Lol.

I prefer to focus on real solutions to real problems (pragmatism.) This is a very pragmatic approach to solving the issue of corporations not meeting standards.

Eh, where I live the employee-owned grocery store is of lower quality and higher priced than Walmart.

I went in expecting more, was sorely disappointed and left without buying anything.

It's essentially the same products in a worse store for a higher price.

I know a lot of people like to beat the 'employee-owned' drum, but unless that translates to lower prices or better quality, I don't see a reason for customers to subscribe to it.

Hmm... products and services still cost the same but now there are less people in the chain to make a profit.

Sounds like a win-win for me.

You must be new to the internet.

That's okay. I'm gonna block you for now while you get more experience and think about why answering everyone's stupid questions is a waste of time.

Right. Good thing is I'm not here to convince you.

I never said their deal was bad.

Your entire argument has been “people can accept bad deals” to get you in striking distance of “they accepted a bad deal.”

This is just you replacing my point with something that is easier to argue against. I see it all the time.

So yeah, I’m trusting them for now. Because there’s nothing in front of me indicating they are wrong.

Go right on ahead man. That doesn't invalidate my point.

Lol, what? I'm countering the point that just because they've accepted it doesn't mean it's good.

Just because they are union workers doesn't mean they weren't taken advantage of.

What about this is so hard for you to understand?

You seem to think that any deal they would've taken is a good deal, because they know more about it than you do. That's a classic appeal to authority, and it's hilarious that you're trying to defend it.

Anyways, goodbye man.

Lol, calm down.

Really? Where's the footage of him getting shot?

Err.. what? I copied and pasted what I wrote before because it was a sufficient response to your comment.

You seem to have this weird idea that just because they accepted the deal, that it was a good deal. I said that's not necessarily true. Then you replied saying "yes it is, they know more than you" which completely ignores my point, so I re-iterated it.

I mean, if you need clarification on what a professional article should look like, then you can find guides on the internet or take a class in school.

I'm not here to explain things to you. I predict you're the kind of person who, after I give an explanation, will just keep asking questions and scrutinizing it because you don't like what's being said.

I don't hold you above this behavior, which is why I'm not playing your little game.

I'm sure you can find out this information on your own if you really wanted to, but you don't.

Yeah, the only reason you're in a position to do that is because so many others are not.

Also, it's faster to stream something for free here https://fmoviesz.to/ than to add credit card information and create a new account for each streaming service that has something you want to see.

Like I said, people with more money than sense.

No you don't.

You're just upset at what's being said so you're trying to scrutinize it as though it doesn't make sense.

I see it all the time and don't hold most people above that behavior.

Right. Now we see how you react when backed into a corner.

Err... what?

Do you say that about everything you don't like?

No, but just because they’re cool with a shitty deal doesn’t mean it wasn’t a shitty deal.

It’s easier to fool someone than to convince them they’ve been fooled, after all.

Usually people with more money than sense.

I haven't seen a single intelligent person that knows their way around a computer subscribing to disney plus.

I think they gave up after netflix went to shit and just started torrenting/streaming.

It never ended for those with brains.

Why pay for something you can get for free? Lol.

Unless you're a sucker.

You can stream pretty much anything for free here: https://fmoviesz.to/

Just make sure you have uBlock Origin installed.

If you ever have issues, do an internet search for "free streaming sites reddit" and try one of those.

Amazon has the money to vet its products and provide better search results, it just chooses not to because it doesn’t need to.

Better to shove a shitty, expensive product in customer’s faces than a cheap, standard one.
