- josephcsible 5y agoIf you try to buy a car, but you and the seller fail to reach a deal, is it okay for you to let the air out of their tires, since they sabotaged your ability to negotiate fairly?
- wayoutthere 5y agoBuying a certain car at a certain price isn’t a requirement to feeding your family. Making enough money to buy food is.
- gruez 5y ago>Buying a certain car at a certain price isn’t a requirement to feeding your family It isn't? In many parts of the US a car is needed to hold a job, or to even get to the grocery store (which might be miles away). Moreover, grocery stores do provide the means to "feed your family". Does that mean looting/vandalizing them is fair game after failing to "negotiate" with them?

- gruez 5y agoI fail to see how my comment is "play[ing] word games".
- saas_sam 5y agoWorking a specific job at a specific price isn't a requirement for feeding your family either. Neither is living in a specific location for a specific rent price, for that matter. The idea that you are entitled to whatever job you want to work at a price that you think is fair is just as absurd as insisting you are entitled to a specific car at a specific price. If you have somehow gotten yourself into a position where you are supporting a family based on knowing how to do one thing that you can only do for one company, sorry but you either massive screwed up your life (unlikely) or you are afraid to step outside your comfort zone and work elsewhere (likely).
- MeinBlutIstBlau 5y agoWhy is it somehow less fair than a company required to keep overpaid general laborers?
- slothtrop 5y agoAnti-union laws would be, but firing everyone isn't tantamount to that. Future applicants still have the ability to organize.
