I have zero problem with megacorpA installing whatever new machine it needs to compete (to their performance specifications) in the marketplace. Go for it. Really is zero I can do about it anywho. Why would I waste my time?

What I do have issue with is dumbcunts saying that bozos installs the machine for OUR OWN GOOD. Be it the consumer or the floor worker.
He does not do that. Never has. Never will.
He and his ilk are beholden to his shareholders/investors tied in a dance off that eventually nobody can win.

So order your amazon thingamabobzit or your alibaba whatsamajiger and expext same day express travellator driven, drone powered delivery all you wish. But please for the love of Dog dont think your magnanimous overlords are doing it for your benefit.
It belittles you and makes you sound simpy.

Why does intent matter?

When you believe your corporate overlords are doing things for your benefit, you're actually surprised when they fleece you.

Why should I give a damn about his intent if his actions benefit me anyway?

Because if you study history, you know that the rich and powerful often offer short-term benefits (or just as often, promises of such benefits) to the masses as part of their rise to power ... and then once they achieve that power those benefits go away (or new terrible things accompany them).

If you're ignorant of history you'll be all [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] when the elites pull the rug out from under you. If you understand history, you'll at least see it coming.
