This is quickly becoming the norm in every industry. Every employer wants fewer employees to do more, without paying them more of course.

things aren’t as rosy as they were a couple of years ago
A couple of years ago it was a thornbush with no roses, so what does that say about now?
The rich are actively trying to be yote into space. All we’re saying is redirect their rockets to ensure they don’t come home again.
Half of Costco’s customers would be blasted!
I’m all for it.
The Beatles once said they were bigger than Jesus. Pitchford is claiming to be as good as the Beatles. Pitchford is claiming to be better than Jesus.
Ok Christian Fundies, cancel this man!
It’s too late, the landleeches have already taken over. Any city remotely worth living in is too expensive to live in, and will remain that way until we eliminate the landleech class.
The biggest hurdle with getting widespread adoption of any scientific breakthrough is cost. If something is not more profitable than the current way of doing things it will not be adopted. Destroying our planet is pretty damn profitable, so until we exterminate capitalism I don’t see anything changing.
People who would ever consider voting for the Toupee have no standards. No bar, no logic or even thought goes in to who they vote for.
The people who are planning to vote against the Toupee have standards. And the Democratic party has continually failed to meet those standards. And the only time the people have any power to pressure a politician is when they’re running for office. Anyone claiming “just vote in the D, then we can focus on getting progress made” is a centrist who is ok being perpetually part of the oppressed class.
Yes, we need to vote against the Toupee, and the GOP in general. We also need a presidential administration who will get progress done. And since the human species has, at best, 30 years left before the majority of the world is uninhabitable, little baby steps won’t cut it.
So Harris and the Dems have a high bar. Because the alternative is fascism, or death by climate change.
A $10k emergency fund? Even banks don’t carry enough cash these days for a working class person to be able to rob a bank to have that kind of money.
Some people actually think they can tell the difference between 70 and 72 Fahrenheit and those people could save a lot of money on medications by switching entirely to placebos for everything.
That annoyed me to no end. I have to wonder about the big push in artificial sweeteners recently; are they cheaper than corn syrup now? Are there enough people who are trying to cut back on sugar but also actually like the taste of dissolved copper in their drinks to keep soda profits high?
No means “I’ll ask you again in 30 days, because we really really want shorts to be a thing.”
Ooh, I’ll have to remember them in the unlikely event that I ever have money. I want nothing more than a 80s F150 retrofit to be all electric.
We’re currently rhyming with history from less than 100 years ago (the rise of fascism), I don’t think having a warning is enough to prevent it from happening again.
Humans are just one of the many influences on Earth’s climate
Proceeds to list a bunch of other things that are the fault of humans.
Of course it was all corporate pandering, but conservatives don’t even want that. Pandering means acknowledging minorities exist and God’s Own Party wants minorities to feel excluded, so they can be better exploited.
Since the first two have approximately 6.5 billion people playing them at any given time, I’d still call it a sea.
Of course it would, because the courts are run by the owner class. That doesn’t mean it isn’t the right thing to do.
Everyone is trying to find workers for the piss-poor wages that are being offered. Add in tip pools and positions being tipped that have no business being tipped and it couldn’t be further from a worker’s economy.
They can be both because the jobs they work pay too little to live on, so they need welfare to survive.
Of course that’s true for most jobs that non-immigrants work too, but a few cents more and you’re suddenly not eligible for grocery money.
