The week before Thanksgiving Twitter fires 4K workers, Amazon fires 10K workers, Facebook fires 11K workers, and Disney plans thousands of layoffs—all while US Billionaire pandemic wealth increased an absurd $1.7T.😳

A reminder that billionaires don’t create jobs—they exploit workers.

Tax billionaires. Unionize workers.

@QasimRashid Layoffs are horrible, especially at this scale. But I live in a country where workers were forced to unionize. And exploited by communists, not billionaires. It just did not work and never will.

@Marr so the solution is moderation and worker empowerment, not force in either direction.

@QasimRashid If people want something, there is no need to force them. Especially in democratic countries. There are plenty of possibilities to unionize in the USA.

@Marr @QasimRashid it’s starts with rejecting the Laffer curve, as it’s been proven to be fiction, followed by progressive taxes and respect for a burgeoning middle class. That may or may not include unions as corruption led many unions to forget about representing their workers. In my opinion, the US need to reign in the definition of part time labor. Balance!
