Morphine Prince 109,654 Posted February 19, 2021 Author Share Posted February 19, 2021 I cannot believe this has to be said but: If you can’t pay your employees a livable wage your business does not deserve to exist People work to LIVE. If your business isn’t enough for a full time employee to be able to at least pay rent and buy basic necessities, you are participating in cruel exploitation.

MACATL 2,125 Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Misleading headline in order to get clicks. It’s unlikely to happen...as party of the Covid relief Bill. Doesn’t mean it won’t happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta love how late stage capitalism has held hostage humanity and any humane treatment of sentient beings within its system. Marx was not a good person and his theories have never worked, they’ve only lead to human rights abuses, food shortages, and authoritarianism. John Maynard Keynes is a much better role model whose ideas actually worked in practice. We need a mixture of the Nordic and the East Asian economic models and to empower labor unions. I agree that American capitalism is inhumane and exploitative, but realize that it’s not like this in the rest of the developed world. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As i said before in the past, the "zombie" companies as they are called hold back the economy tbh If ur business is so unprofitable it cant survive without paying super low wages then its a drag on the economy because its using up labor that could be better used elsewhere and then that person payed better too U dont want to create jobs for the sake of creating jobs. Unemployment rate alone doesnt determine how prosperous an econony is. If unempmoyment is only 2% but its all in low paying jobs from uncompetitive businesses then the economy is still sh*t Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rio 5,088 Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Sad to see that Trump actually delivered on a lot of his promises from the get-go, no matter how the legislative bill short-changed the rights of people or how **** they were morally. He got done what he said to do Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chromatography 10,186 Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 i can’t believe people are shocked. biden wasn’t going to actually improve anything and it was funny watching people cry about how america is saved. it’s not. as long as capitalism exists, the US will always buckle to unlivable wages, exploitation, and division.
