43. That's a pretty serious form of terrorism. Things like this can lead to serious violence.

You start messing with workers lives like this, you better make sure you have really, really good fire insurance.

Because some people might get really pissed off.

Honestly, if angry workers burned all the Koch Brothers shit to the ground because of this terrorism, the Koch Bros would totally deserve it, and would have no one else but themselves to blame.

You play with fire like this, you may literally get burned.

Selfish, thoughtless, dumbass rich people thinking they can walk all over anyone they want.
