  • Not sure what is meat by “both sides this”. But from my point of view it seems no matter who gets elected lately there will be rumors of impeachment.

    As a guy just living his life, I have no influence over the outcome. I doubt it will actually happen and I even doubt more it will personally affect me. So I will just continue living my life and not worry about it. Why stress out over things outside of your control?

    The media will try to spin everyone up to keep people watching. This further separates everyone while fueling hate and discontent. I have my own things within my control to worry about.



  • Still the argument stands, we produce more because of technology advancements (funded by the companies), which in turn makes the job actually easier and usually safer. If the cost of business increases because working less hours for the same amount of money, the product’s cost will increase.

    Don’t get me wrong, I am a worker bee also. But I work hard at what I do and make an honest days pay for an honest days work. I would love more money for less effort but ultimately I just see it all being a wash or saving less as everything gets more and more expensive. I do not see the government currently stepping in for the price gouging that is already going on.


  • Then make the standard 32 hours to keep full-time benefit but get paid for 32 hours. Additionally, all of these technologies that aid in efficiency are purchased by the company, and the workers are not working as hard as they used to.

    If it were being sold as they want to make a Full time job be 32 hours and a 25% increase in hourly pay, it would actually sound more reasonable and essentially be the same…

    But ultimately if all the worker bees start earning more and producing less, the cost of stuff will increases to adjust.









  • Yeah that will be the thing I miss the most when looking for stuff as I try to rely less on reddit.

    I get so tired of trying find information via blogs or YouTube. Most of them are:

    “So you may have an issue doing this thing or you want to learn more about this thing so we are going to tell you about this thing. Blah blah blah as they go on telling you in different ways about how they are going to tell you and other reasons why you want to hear what they are about to tell you.”

    Mostly seems to be a way to make you scroll down and be bombarded with ads (if you do not use an ad block)

    Soo frustrating and waste of my time.
