It’s done on purpose. It’s things people need to survive. Clothing, baby food, sexual protection, toothpaste.
They know it’s cruel. But they don’t care, they know you have to buy those products, so they’ll squeeze every last penny they can get out of you, even if it’ll kill you.
They don’t want them having baby stuff to “punish the poor for irresponsibly reproducing” and condoms to “punish the gays” (because they still think only gay people can get hiv or other stds)
They don’t want condoms for the first reason you mentioned mainly. It’s so that they can’t have sex without consequence, and if they tried to do it, they’d get pregnant.
I’m sure hating gay people goes into the equation to.
It really is fucked up that they both block contraceptives and baby products. I guess it is that puritan mentality that everyone just needs to suffer. Ironic that they worship a guy who told people to give everything they own to the poor.
They want you to be forced to not have children, but essentially breed to create more workers for them, and then they want you to live in poverty so that those future workers are forced to work low wage jobs, go to the military, or take on an absurd amount of debt.
This is also why they want to eliminate birth control and abortions.
The baby products are what makes me very angry. The absolute audacity. If someone can’t afford a baby product, should we punish the baby by preventing acess? The whole thing makes me angry but the baby products more so than anything else
How could I forget! He turned the 5 loaves and 2 fish into enough to feed most of a crowd of people, for a very reasonable price! He didn’t feed all of them though, that would go against supply and demand and lower the prices.
Is it the private companies job to make sure people can afford this stuff or the governments? I agree that people shouldn’t be unable to afford essentials, but I don’t think companies should be obligated to just allow theft because the government isn’t setting rh minimum wage high enough or paying enough benefits.
Who owns the government? Who controls them and forces them to maintain that low wage? Who is doing the exploitation of the people?
The government is an arm of corporate power. They are one and the same entity.
Also Walmart lost 3 billion last year to shoplifting. However their total profit, not revenue, straight profit, was 151 billion dollars.
Furthermore, if Walmart paid each of their employees 100 dollars an hour instead of 15, do you know what their profit would have been? 60 billion dollars lower, at 90 billion a year. Still more money then the GDP of many nations.
I could care less if someone steals from Walmart, you could empty out 500 stores worth of product from them overnight, and it wouldn’t even be enough to be more than a rounding error.
If you’d be interested, I’d recommend that you read “The Peoples Republic of Walmart”, you fall into several cleverly designed logical traps that massive corporations create in order to make themselves look guiltless, and that book clears up several misconceptions, and will truthfully open your eyes to how absolutely disgusting corporate/capitalist power is in the lives of citizens.

The Jesus lore has a sequel called Supply Side Jesus now, didn’t you know?

Yeah, that actually does make sense as a reason. Absolutely ridiculous
