Tech’s broken promises: Streaming is now just as expensive and confusing as cable. Ubers cost as much as taxis.

    Those workers still want to live. The money is the means- controlled by those with the most money.

    Capitalism and democracy as exclusive concepts.

        Bold deconstruction of the argument. Capitalism didn’t invent iPhones, workers did. There are economic systems other than capitalism, that can do better, without the unilateral domination of capital.
