For fucks sake, can we have anything good anymore? I'm so tired of hearing good news just to wait for corrupt pieces of human garbage to decide they don't want it. It's so fucking stupid.

They want us all to be slaves to corporations, and to be punished for not bending over and taking it.

So...U.S. Chamber of Commerce...I can't say I've seen that organization in this light, before.

It's a corporate lobby group that chose a government-sounding name to fool consumers. It's just as much a piece of shit as every other corporate lobby.

The government sounding name definitely worked on me. Dang. I had heard about their random tangential involvement in things for years without feeling alarmed.

Yep. Literally everyone has the same experience... and people still believe propaganda doesn't work.

I assume this is directly due to the recent repeal of Chevron.

Get rid of the ban and let the free market sort it out.

Or move to a civilized country where non-competes are illegal, like Canada.

There is no free market in the US.

That is obvious.
