    Labour conditions shouldn’t need regulation, we should just recognise another being’s suffering.

    Though if we are going to have governments, they might as well do something useful.

      There is literally no other thing that needs regulation more. It’s the entire reason contracts are a thing that exists. If anybody comes to you claiming they’ll set your working conditions based on empathy, that’s your cue to find a different job and a good union.

      We do. It’s just that those that revel in it get rewarded.

        Don’t be ridiculous. Some of them just see additional free time of the masses as bad for the health of their gold hoards. When people aren’t working all the time, they have enough time to think about your gold hoard. /s
