But "they make enough money to afford my salary" does not entitle one to a job. Instead "they need my skills" earns one a job.

But "we fucked up but we employ enough people that it would be inconvenient if we went out of business" entitles a business to a bailout? If the bailout is not to preserve jobs, what is it for? In a system in which people must be employed to not be a problem for others, maintaining employment is the only real justification for bailing out employers. If employers aren't employing people, then why should they even exist in this system?

Conservatives just want to get the woke bullshit out of schools and go back to the days of teaching actual academic material.

This is of course total bullshit. Conservatives are the ones responsible for the schools not adequately teaching actual academic material. They started compromising education to produce idiots who would be willing to vote for them under Reagan, at the very same time as they mobilized the religious reich. The two things go hand in hand because evangelicals are also against education.

In my ardently conceited opinion, there was exactly one scene worth watching in the entire movie trilogy, and this clip and this clip cover most of the scene without any plot spoilers. You're welcome.

The book is grand adventure of the old style, and the movies largely failed to capture the old world enjoyment of traipsing through the wild looking for treasure.
