In the US where billionaires openly buy elections, buy the media outlets that shape public opinion, buy supreme court justices, and spend their idle hours spending money on rocket programs that are barely disguised expressions of their manhood to rub in our faces, the idea of a day set aside to honor the workers they so despise for daring to want anything for the privileged of serving them seems positively quaint. We’re in a new gilded age and the powers of wealth are being moved to impoverish the masses because it has been made clear being a billionaire isn’t sufficient, you must also make others suffer to really feel the power of your wealth.
