    I didn’t know what this was from so I looked it up, in case anybody else is curious, from the movie Killing Them Softly: https://youtu.be/Zi9iCOsD8Sg

    Maybe America wasn't founded on the principle of democracy. Have you watched the movie Killing Them Softly?

    Whatever--it's not our problem.

    Companies (as a class of socioeconomic entity) have, since the 80s, been continually shirking their duties to their employees. At this point, the employer-employee relationship is adversarial. Thus, if it makes more sense for prospective employees to view their next job as resume padding, that's what they'll do.

    If companies bothered to treat their workers well, to pay them well, to tie their fortunes to those of their employees, maybe we'd have something to talk about.

    As the movie "Killing Them Softly" said:

    This guy wants to tell me we're living in a community? Don't make me laugh. I'm living in America, and in America you're on your own. America's not a country. It's just a business. Now fuckin' pay me.

    And yeah, that makes life hard for people starting new companies. So it goes.
