Oh noooo it’s old no-one should like stuff that’s old only new things are cool
You know, one day the stuff you like will be old too.
Also, Star Trek been around a long time, yeah, but it’s still going with new content.
No, you’re just being purposely vague for some reason. And you really want to pay people substandard wages for some reason.
But if you legit can’t come up with any concrete examples and have to fall back on things like eating food, then fine, we can end the discussion.
Again the vagueness. ‘Can’t work very well’. Define that. Are we talking someone who’s not mentally apt enough to do NASA rocket science but still can ring up groceries just fine? Are we talking someone wheelchair-bound so they can’t stock shelves? What level are we talking here? Because those people could still do jobs and earn a living wage.
No. Give me concrete examples, please.
And how do they do that?
Define ‘not valuable enough’ and I’ll answer you.
It has everything to do with it as you are very insistent on underpaying people for some reason. You have yet to state that reason.
To answer your question I would need more information. Exactly what do you mean by ‘not valuable enough to earn a living wage’?
Still didn’t answer my question.
For the love of…
I guess I need to use simple words and shorter sentences with you.
If you hire a person, you pay them a living wage.
If they’re not doing their job right, train them better.
If they still don’t work out, fire them.
There. Is. No. Reason. Not. To. Pay. Workers. A. Living. Wage.
None.
And you still haven’t answered my question. Why are you so enamored of exploiting workers?
Right, which is, as the other person said, why you fire them if they don’t do a good job. You don’t keep a mistake-maker and pay them less, you hire someone who can do the job and pay them well.
And how is it ‘meaningless’? You just defined it: a wage allowing someone to live in the place they’re located. So yes, it changes from place to place. That’s not ‘meaningless’, it’s ‘regional’. And you should still pay someone a living wage.
I don’t understand why you’re so opposed to it. Why do you want people suffering and in poverty for providing services? If you work, you should be able to eat and live, full stop. Even if it’s only in the cheaper parts of your town.
And again, that’s just wage slavery done up in a different bow.
Payment for a job is you not wanting to do it or being unable to do it, so you hire someone to do it. If they do the job, they can’t do something else, so you pay them enough to make it worth their time. You support them so they can help you. If you can’t pay them enough to support them, then do the damn job yourself.
Seriously, why are you so against people getting a living wage? It used to be even grocery checkstand workers could afford a decent place. Back then our economy was better too.
We’ve done it before, and it worked. Other countries today do it and it works - see the wages for McDonald’s workers in Denmark as an example.
The only thing taking away living wages does is force people into wage slavery to line the pockets of the rich to a ridiculous degree. It’s not sustainable and it benefits no-one but a few people who don’t need that money anyways.
I beg your pardon?
Every job needs a living wage. Anything else is wage slavery. Seriously, what are you, a 1910 coal mine overseer?
A living wage for all benefits both people and the economy; that’s been proven over and over again. All people are worthy of being able to support themselves and a family, for heaven’s sake.
Or how about poor people should be given a living wage?
Hear, hear.
This is why I loved the Nero Wolfe tv show so much; they taught valuable lessons (like don’t let a cop in without a warrant and be wary of the FBI) and the cops were much more realistic, even if still more or less good guys.
Ice cream and bacon are bad for humans :p
As the old saying goes, live well, eat healthy, die anyways. This cat’s got the right idea!
(For anyone who’s curious: many cats lose the ability to digest milk as they get older, mostly due to not drinking it much anymore. The side effects are similar to human lactose intolerance. Cow’s milk also contains a lot of fat, so it’s not a good idea for them to have it too often even if they can digest it.)
Given how far the Grinch’s cave was from the town, that must have been some prestigious noise.
And of course he adds in a picture of John Wayne, the draft-dodging, woman-beating, other wannabe cowboy poser.
