Remember when people said they wanted this country run like a business?

Lmao, why on earth would you ever want that?

Yes I’d like to live in a country that can fire me for inadequate performance which will be constantly monitored and documented at all times. If you feel this is unfair please refer to HR who will both ignore you and trick you into signing away any retaliatory action you could possibly take against the company.

Could be worse. The government could be a business that can fire its citizens at will.

What's missing in the business anology, though, is that citizens are or should be akin to shareholders, and that the government and it's officers should have a duty to and ultimately be responsible to the shareholders. Even then, its not perfect, of course, and there may be issues with minority shareholders rights, etc, but, just to be clear, you want to be a shareholder and not an employee.
