    at 0:05: “I totaled a car last week and I can’t afford to replace it”. I feel like there is a bit of undue entitlement in that statement. Should any worker be able to comfortably replace a car that they destroyed?

    I have no love for Toyota or any other mega corp, and I think the bigger issue in this article is the very first statement in the interview: “I spent three and a half years building cars and I can’t afford a home yet”. That is a big problem, but I wouldn’t attribute that to greedy corporate employers exclusively.

      I would, maybe not exclusively but have you seen how much the investor class profit and hoard?

        I would

        But not exclusively.

        You can point the finger to individual and foreign investors, but also to government policies (or lack thereof) that make that possible.
