And how else do they expect them to make a living?

Well, obviously, from physical labor. Any attempt to get a better situation is “just getting above their station.”

It’s like wingnuts have read the description of the brutalization of the labor force and proletariat as in Marx, and decided that this dystopic vision is actually the promised land.

I honestly think we’ll see attempts to re-institute slavery in the US as a result of this kind of RW ideology. Halfway steps include incarcerating an enormous number of people, then seeking ways to force prisoners to ‘earn their keep’.
