you're just typing a paragraph to employ the "job creators" myth as an argument lol

so being a middle man who does nothing but extract and capitalize on needs that people have makes you a job creator? pretty sure mcdonalds didn't create hungry people and people would have needed to buy a burger regardless of whether or not mcdonald's was a multibillion dollar corporation.

i will admit, mcdonalds does create some hungry people tho-- their own workers, who they underpay by massive amounts.
