why is that funny?
sometimes some over-moneyed asshole will hear or read something they do not like and try to squash it under a pile of money (lawyers, influence, etc) or a large corporation will pay a judge or two so some small joe can't speak his piece
i think that is the exception, rather than the rule
as for "what do i do", well, mostly i work construction. i have zero respect for white-collar workers. someone can shuffle papers and shave 2% off their companies operational costs for a year. big deal
i can call the food out of the ground, hunt it out of the woods, and build the house that some fat loser sits in borrowing and lending, driving the value of my dollars down
the way my grandfather told it to me, and the way i still believe, is this:
back in the day of the family farm and family business, there was always a mama's boy who couldn't work in the fields with the men. he got sent to the house to count the stock and do the bookwork
after a while, the mamas boy realized he could juggle the numbers in his favor, and "management" was born
