It doesn't work that way. You made the assertion, so the burden of proof is on you.
- forward1 3y agoBut you only quoted the first part of my statement and not the proof, which I did state: > All business [...] relies on hiding and externalizing costs of production unto the environment, a vulnerable population, or other forms of legal/tax trickery. Are you aware of a business which does not have any externalized costs of production which have a negative impact on someone or something?
