Workers are fine: Crapitalism is broken

Businesses complain that they cannot find workers. Repugnacons frame it that since workers are getting unemployment and pandemic benefits they're too lazy to work. The truthful frame is that many of these businesses pay shit with shitty hours and no benefits. Workers are fine; Crapitalism is broken.

"The game of American capitalism is still rigged against the worker. Which is why business models in everything from tourism to early childhood care need to be fundamentally reconceived — and built in a way that doesn’t hinge on workers making poverty-level wages. [...] Collectively, we should be thinking of different funding models, different ownership scenarios, and different growth imperatives. Failure to do so is simply resigning ourselves to another round of this rigged game.
