One time, at this one place I used to work at, a bunch of temps were brought in to work 10 dollars an hour. Unfortunately, the company made them work over 24 hours straight and threatened them all that if they left, they would not get paid for their time. OSHA be damned.

If fact; THIS example up here is exactly why I do not enjoy or think nicely about capitalism and how it perpetuates itself. It's also examples such as this that get me from point zero neutral with a libertarian to all out "I want to wage bloody fucking war with you" in less than a sentence.

Luckily, I'm starting to accept that there are people out there that are just far too broken to reach and aren't worth engaging in.
