Agreed, but getting an increase in minimum wage would get the ball rolling on other worker right reforms.

Combine that with the fact that this town looks like it has a very slow life style, it wouldn't be weird to have to wait a month or so for an order. Everyone probably knows each other and if there was an emergency, there would be someone nearby to help patch a roof, even if it was just throwing a tarp over it.

Socialism for the rich, rugged individualism for the poor.

The rich can pay lobbyists to pay politicians.

Short term, raise the minimum wage. Force walmart to fill the gaps between what they pay and what their workers need to live. Right now, it's the government is subsidizing that gap.

It's crazy how much doesn't even get done. No one wants to leave before their boss, so they space out their work and give the appearance of being busy.

Impressive. I know many corps still use Leveno laptops even though they got caught putting spyware in their firmware.

Never. They'll just try again later with different and more obtuse wording.

It's no private car ownership. If you need a load of bricks, if delivery isn't an option, a rental might be.

I went back when I quit reddit. Immediately found racist shit complaining about equality in schools and some concerning comments about vaccines.

Fell far from the site that basically dripped Demon Haunted World to me.

TechTV is how I found slashdot, then digg to reddit and now here.

Comcast was to blame for the enshittification of TechTV.
