    It’s far worse than this:

    See how these supply and demand lines intersect over here? Well we get to shift the supply a little lower, sell for higher price, and get to extort workers harder, so that they feel lucky to have a job at all.

    The reason that the large class doesn’t eat us, is that we have enough profits to control media and politicians to brainwash and force them not to eat us, and so when we say “free market”, we’re just lying to create a corrupt market and a corrupt society which we get to control absolutely.

    –Ahhh says the alien.

    Do you have any intrinsic concerns about being evil? Or does the only thing that matters is that the slaves accept your evil and their oppression?
