This is illegal in the UK and probably other places in Europe. US really needs to make a law against this kind of shit

The only reason our lawmakers aren't an active part of it is because they're all too old to even realize that the nintendos are a billion dollar industry now

I’m sure they realize when they receive checks from those companies to keep these laws from being enacted.

It's the deal with the devil.

One could argue we have the world's strongest economy because we are business-friendly to a fault. People actually question the fairness of unions, but even with unions our labor protections are more third-world than first-world. But in return, the median income is at least world-competitive, and the typical individual buying power is through the roof. All we had to do to get here is sign away our collective souls to these megacorporations and be ok with the sacrifice of a million lives a year devastated by it all.
