No response Qusdahl? 😉
Sorry, didn’t know I was supposed to respond.

…yes?

Some sort of “redistribution” is necessary, cuz bear in mind, one could just as easily argue that wealth was “confiscated” from their labor value all along.

Who says "they" (whoever you're talking about in this scenario) don't pay the workers well enough to buy their own home?

You realize that 99% of businesses in our country are small businesses right? Workers owning the means of production. They're not confiscating wealth from anyone.

Did you take any steps to progress toward your goals Qus? Or just gonna sit and bitch while waiting for Robin Hood to come along and hand you a bag of cash and keys to your new home...which is exactly the same as your neighbors and everyone else in towns.

ok have it your way.

The southwest MI news has an awful lot of coverage right now about “worker shortage” “staff shortage” “labor shortage” etc

Bull. Shit.

It’s a fucking wage shortage.

You pay enough and they’ll work, you free market pussies.

Also the MI teevee also has all these political commercials about how the “Washington liberals” want to gut yall’s retirement plans as some power grab, except in MI it’s not “yall” so much as it’s some upper Midwest vowel-rich “yooou”

Like Soulja boy but more nasally

You are way past your invitation on this line.

i don't know what it is, but it certainly ain't an imbecile shortage. going through the drive-thru it's about 66/33 they get my order right. how hard is it to look at the big screen and put the food in a bag. and get it right.

i wouldn't increase the wage. i'd decrease it. go back to minimum. go back to hiring the high school kids.

Mich, how hard would you work for $9 an hour?

Especially when every one in 3 customers is being an asshole to you about their order

"66/33". What about the missing 1%? Would you say it leans towards their getting your order right or wrong?
Instead of my getting mad (which I admit I have done too often) I try and remember these people are trying to make an honest LOW wage legally. I give them credit for doing as such - as annoying and aggravating as it may be when they often screw up my order. To me, "imbecile" or not, many if not most of these people deserve to be paid more than they are.
