They'll make a new entity that extracts most of the profit while the production facility operates at cost or even a loss. Jurisdiction shopping is a thing even within the US.

Which static site hosters do this?

People are downvoting you but you're absolutely right.

I sincerely doubt this is accurate or why would they even bother.

Japan's entire system is privatized no?

If you use a service from someone that depends on your tips and you don't tip them then you have exploited their labor. Not as bad as the company or CEO is but it's exploitation nonetheless.

It's truly incredible how ignorant you can be about this while also feeling you can talk down. I hope you one day take an actual real look at the very real and brutal housing issues around us.

NIMBYs care about all sorts of things and are staunchly against progress and housing the young and poor alike. This is entirely NIMBYism dressed up in progressive aesthetics and language.

The customers in this case are also treating the employee like shit.

This is literally oil company propaganda. Oil extraction is an absolutely massive humanitarian cost that dwarfs all the cobalt mines in existence.

Cobalt extraction in DRC is an inexcusable humanitarian cost as well. I don't deny that.

But oil companies like to run the line that evironmentalism and exploitation of labor are going hand in hand. The truth is that exploitation and capitalism are the bedfellows and cause here. Just as they are on a much larger scale with oil. Environmentalism has nothing to do with it. Greed, racism, a long history of oppression, and the psychopaths who run our world are to blame. Not "going green".

A proper title and focus of this film would be " Making Money: The toxic cost of capitalism and greed".

That stuff was so good. Gonna have to look for it now.

We're not confused about why we do it. We're aware that doing it has negative outcomes.

No amount of prolix explanation excuses even the act of stereotyping.

It may be impossible to avoid stereotyping entirely which is why people practice not doing it. You call this "politically correct". I call it "behaving decently".
