Saw taking our taxes to fund corporate investment..? How may years before they defraud certain accounts due to political opposition or ethnic background (sorry residential differences)?

Don't cross a picket line.
BREAKING: After months of stonewalling by Starbucks, unionized baristas just voted 92% to authorize a ULP strike unless Starbucks finalizes fair contracts & stops union busting.
If forced, our baristas will strike in dozens of cities on November 13 – the company's busiest sales day of the year.

Wherefore is our justice if we are unable to place our own body to prevent the cleave? Can I feel my own blood pumping though it drains from the veins of my kin?
