Except the market didn't shut it down, the government did.

Unions aren't perfect, but I'd still take one over working at one of these horror-stories any day of the week. Capitalism is a cancer.

If you'd kept reading for another minute or so you would have seen that the piece is actually precisely about tidy narratives and that the opening section is not to be taken entirely at face value. The other option, as you seem to be aware, was to critique a piece you hadn't actually read.

When you wrote 'resource' - you misspelled 'toilet paper'

A dream job is accurate; it's far too short before you wake up.
