Dude, you’re preaching to the choir on that one. I’m still not going to cry over a warehouse burned to the ground who were paying people poverty wages.
The warehouse doesn’t pay anybody, the warehouse holds supplies. The owners of the warehouse, who live in Texas, pay people and they’re incentivized not to change their ways because it’s still more profitable to pay low wages, as are the people who own the empty lot next. If anything the outcome of this is 1) less jobs and 2) rising prices under the guise of shortage.
You could in theory keep burning Kimberly Clark warehouses until they’re forced to liquidate the company and file bankruptcy, but at that point they will either be immediately replaced by another company perhaps worse, or you will simply make it impossible for mothers to obtain diapers for their children, which will among other repercussions have serious effects on public hygiene. Also, the boardmembers and CEO Michael Hsu are definitely walking away from it rich af.
You’re not quite understanding that all of the diapers and soap were owned by billionaires at the time it went up in smoke.
Billionaires already owned all that merchandise. They did buy it, from paper mills chemical plants and other factories. But they didn’t get to sell it.
To them it was a numeric figure on a piece of paper, to the rest of us it was necessary supplies. The owner isn’t even a billionaire, the CEO has about 12M Net Worth.
They weren’t your fucking supplies! They were owned by the fucking billionaires!
It’s a publicly traded company. It is owned by a whole shitload of people. I’m sure I hold a few shares within the mutual funds in my portfolio. If you have any sort of investment portfolio, you very probably do too. But the predominant shareholders are billionaires, not working-class investors.
The CEO is not the owner. He has some shares, sure. But the overwhelming majority of Kimberly-Clark is held by fucking billionaires.
THEN DO SOMETHING TO THE BILKIONNAIRES, NOT WAREHOUSES FULL OF DAIPERS AND SOAP THAT BILLIONAIRES WOUMDNT EVEN BUY
Even burning the third party staffing agency he worked for would have been better.
