Here seems a better place than any to put down these thoughts. @DzambhalaHODL posted on X how excecutives knew recycling was a red herring. In other words more lies under the cover of plausible deniability.
Yesterday I was angry with myself because I wasn't assertive enough with the tri axle driver delivering stone to my job site. It's Me and me alone working on the site and responsible for all things that take place there. So I had to shovel 6 of the 12 tons that I let get dumped to correct my fuck up. It was about 95 degrees in full sun and I wanted to blame the driver as I started shoveling. I got over wanting to blame the driver around 15 minutes. I was worried that having to do heavy grunt work before laying the first course of retaining wall block would cause me to succumb to more mistakes.
Because I do most construction or farm work alone I noticed it's difficult to transition between grueling heavy labor and skilled work or planning. It requires a mindset shift and that shift isn't as easy for me when I need my mind to be focused on my body during the heavy labor.
As I drove away from the jobsite at 3:30 (peak heat) I saw 2 guys on a roof laying shingle. If I was in a life where the only way I could support myself was roofing or robbing houses in affluent suburbs I'd choose the later. I'd probably go to prison and I'd still prefer that to roofing.
The executives in the plastics industry had many many career and life choices they could have made besides lying to the entire world. But they lied and lied for some amount more career advancement? They above nearly every other type of person should live with the threat of prison, of physical violence for bad decisions that negatively affect others.
Because those used to a life of physical brutality and instability are in general the least perturbed by the prospect of physical confinement and living with violent unstable prison mates. If someone thinks roofing in 95 degrees and full sun is not physical brutality they should go do it.
In my view those most removed from physical brutality would be those most detered by it as consequence of their actions. It seems unlikely that we will reform the prison system. We might as well make proper use of its ugliness and make it a very real threat to criminals in corner offices.
