I guess we’re just kind of ignoring things like credit bureaus, who sell finacial data about you whether you like it or not, and god help you if you miss a payment. But hey, even if you dont screw up, maybe something gets reported wrong, or maybe you just don’t spend like the algorithm wants you to, and your credit, and thus your life, is ruined.

I guess we’re also ignoring private health insurance companies and how they can just kind of, you know, deny you for any reason. But it’s cool because your insurance is dependent on a benevolent private company providing you employment.

See where I’m going with this? The Ayn Rand “government is violence” nonsense needs to stop. It’s not corporations vs. government, it’s powerful institutions vs. we, the plebes.

There's also economic/financial violence.

No, corporations just pay the government to do it on their behalf.

Tell that to people at Standing Rock.
