If you work at Timmy’s do a count of how many ice caps you make in a day. Multiply that by the cost. I guarantee on ice caps alone you make more value than you get back in your check

Libs learn about the labor theory of value and are like, “so what if people skim a little off the top? The business has overhead.” This is not skimming. Most people lose more than half of their labor value every day.

    Actually in the course of writing this it occurred to me my workplace might also be some kind of tax avoidance scheme.

    Any chance the transactions are cash-heavy?

      No, none of that. I meant more that the business gets a lot of "small business incentive" tax breaks and favorable bank loans. Balancing out the taxes that the owner would otherwise get on his real estate investments through his manufacturing business. I don't know enough about finances to know if that's how it works, but the entire thing to me has felt fishy for a while.
