      Guess why the military has (shitty but more than none) social safety nets like socialized medicine and student loan forgiveness? And why the elite continuously refuse to raise the standard of living of the poor?

      As long as these benefits are just slightly better than poverty, recruiting numbers will stay up.

        They don’t raise the standard of living for the poor because they view labor as a commodity. If we made things less difficult for the poor then the price of labor will go up because people wouldn’t be as desperate. Their goal is to make the price of labor as low as possible.

    Okay guys, here me out…join ICE, get student loans forgiven…and then be a bumbling idiot at your job. Let people get away bcz youre out of breath. Fuck up the paperwork bcz youre too incompetent to read. Just be the absolute worst employee at your job, like ever. And then when they ask you about it just shrug and say, IDK, I guess I’m stupid…

    Anyone have the details on these benefits? Payout time etc.?

    If a whole fuckton of people with sense and morals overwhelmed their hiring department and became maliciously complaint ICE agents we stand a chance to break the system. Get names of everyone we can, build profiles and map out the line of command.

    The riots are going to need targets. I’m not sure how to put words to this, but if I were caught in the crossfire I just need to know at least one actual fascist fuck was going out with me. If I could take two it’d be a net positive.

    Oh so they’re struggling to hire? I guess there’s a finite number of psychopathic boot lickers, and it’s a bit lower than I expected

    Which they won’t have to pay out after they thank their workers for throwing people in camps by throwing them in camps.
