What purpose does the stock market serve?

[untermensche]

Unions began because corporations were so nasty and abusive, not simply because corporations existed.

Corporations exist because a few with wealth want to exploit something for gain.

Usually human labor is exploited to extract the gain.

And now the only growing unions are government employee unions because governments are so nasty and abusive.

Yes, apples are oranges.

Public sector unions came about after the deadly struggles with corporations.

But they are the largest remnant of the unions, since most others have been effectively and illegally crushed.

And life becomes harder and harder for the working man.

And some rejoice in this.
