    They’d make even more if they paid everyone a thriving wage. They have multiple studies from at least the '70s proving that they’d profit even more, which makes sense since we’d be buying more. They want to see people suffer, and have figured out that we are actually post scarcity, so people will never have to needlessly suffer again, once we fix the inequality. The cruelty is the point, because they know it’s on its last legs, unless they destroy the world.
