Comment on The surveillance tech waiting for workers as they return to the office

I think it’s a bit unfair to blanket statement that capitalism is a scam. There need to be checks in place. Like, I agree it’s not fair that me as a business owner can simply say “this year we are skipping raises, and I am paying myself 2 billion”. There’s no reason any one person needs a trillion dollars. That’s an insane amount of money. Even 100 million is a shit ton of money. There definitely need to be checks in place, but I don’t think communism is the answer either.

capitalism is not only a scam to prop up our owners, but its also destroying the literal planet we live in to keep these bastards in power.
the only way capitalism can be good is when it dies.
