What’s happy about it?
As seen from the POV of Old Father Time.
Happy New Year? Huh, what’s happy about it?
No, really; I know it’s only January 1st, but what the hell’s happy about it?

For the workers who died at a candle factory in Kentucky, and an Amazon warehouse in Illinois, for every worker forced to risk their life without proper protective gear or healthcare, in the middle of a pandemic and a tornado, to keep the profits coming in and the supply chain stocked so we can buy our daughters a Fighter Pilot Barbie for Christmas… Season’s Greetings from Capitalism.
“The bosses won’t keep us safe; they only care about profit. Workers are the only ones who know what is safe and what is not. We should decide whether to continue working or not. For that purpose, we need to fight for Health and Safety Commissions to be set up in all workplaces that will function independent of the bosses, that are democratically elected, and that can organize to impose protocols and shut down production when necessary.
Not one more dead worker at the hands of the bosses! Our lives are worth more than their profits!”

And, there we have it — we’ve gone from “we’re all in this together” to “live with it”. Like, screw you — just shaddup and live with it; they’re through even pretending to care.
So, what else will we be expected to “live with” — labor exploitation? Fascist thugs ruling the streets? The end of the goddamn Earth?

Basically, Obamacare all over again. The Democrats threw out everything their constituents ever wanted from the “Build Back Better” bipartisan (spit) infrastructure bill in order to please President Manchin and the GOP, and the rest of us got nothing — and the Democrats and their mouthpieces on MSNBC will, of course, yell and scream about how awesome a bill this is until their nipples explode with delight.
Still, y’shoulda seen that whopper before the trip back, before the sharks got hold of it.
