As the Marxist agitator #AdamSmith once said, "People of the same trade seldom meet together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public, or in some contrivance to raise prices."

Smith understood that capitalists hate capitalism. They don't want to compete with one another, because that would interfere with their ability to raise the prices their customers pay and reduce the wages they pay their workers.

Hold on, what’s “social murder?”
Social murder is what happens when a society permits conditions that lead to an earlier death of people in a given socio-economic group or class. #ableg #onpoli #cdnpoli

Wait, that sounds a bit like Conservative policy. 🤔

Having travellers quarantine would basically shut down fly-in-fly-out workers at oil camps like those owned by CNRL, which have been hubs of covid spread.

I wonder how the current #CNRL outbreak compares to earlier outbreaks at #Cargill and ther meat processing plants?👇
#CNRL received $192,648,603.55 from the federal government in CEWS benefits in 2020, but would not keep their workers safe.
Where did all that money go?

Sometimes I wonder what I could have achieved in life if I spent my time in university attacking the rights of women and the LGBTQ community while pandering to religious zealots before dropping out instead of, you know, studying.
I don’t actually wonder this.
But after years of being told an entry-level job requires 6 degrees and 10 years experience using industry-specific software that’s only existed for 2, I get why some find it frustrating to see drop-outs elevated to top positions in society.

Imagine being told that the only way you’ll have a career that enables you to provide for a family of your own is to take on MASSIVE debt get a university education.
So you do that, but still struggle to get your foot in the door.
Where are all the promised “good” jobs?

The first death associated with the devastating #COVID19 outbreak at the #Cargill meat-packing plant in High River, #Alberta has been announced. As of April 20, 484 cases associated with the plant have been reported, with more to come.

On April 17, 358 total cases were reported, with 200 being employees and contractors of the plant and 158 involving others in households connected to Cargill. Today, these numbers were updated to 484 total cases, with 360 being workers and 124 being close contacts of workers.
I got to wondering: what might this outbreak look like as a transmission network? This is what I came up with. Case among workers (primary cases) are red. Cases among close contacts of workers (secondary cases) are blue. These are simulated data—I have no special access to info.
