@quinn @futurebird I’m sceptical of this.
If you need a second problematic system of exploitation and oppression to somewhat counteract your first one (and as a non-American I don’t really recognise the counterbalancing effect you’re referring to), it seems to me that you should probably try to get rid of both systems.
The “old woman who swallowed a fly” approach of increasingly compromised kludges feels like it’s been pretty conclusively debunked by now.
