The amount of derisive comments here show just how out of touch the majority of you people are with the poor human garbage that live in a world totally different from yours.
All this to say, however, that I agree with you that formula retail shouldn't be demonized by SF as much as it is.
If you have a perspective that's different than that of other commenters, that means you have something valuable to contribute here, if you'd be willing to share your information and experience. But it needs to be done in a thoughtful way, not a lashing-out way—please see https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html.
Quite apart from the rules, it's also in your interest to do that, because then your point of view (and perhaps also the people you're close to or identify with) get represented in a dignified and solid way.
