  • I see a lot of folks here saying “based on inflation since X, item Y SHOULD only cost Z.” I want to point out those inflation numbers the government gives out every year are complete bullshit. Inflation has been WAY more than 30% over the last decade and a half or so (not you but someone above mentioned 30% as the inflation number since the aughts)

    They change their basket of goods to artificially deflate inflation numbers, it is way way way higher than the 2% a year that they claim is the average. Add greed on top and you get the crazy insane prices we see today. For a 2% inflation to really work for everyone and not just the rich assholes then minimum wage needs to increase proportionately. Should force minimum wage up the stated inflation rate once a year. So every year min wage increases by 2% (or more depending on the actual inflation rate).



  • No matter how bad it gets during his Presidency it will be Biden and Obama’s fault and he will have spent so much tireless effort to fix it that it may still be bad but just think of how much worse it would have been without Trump daddy here?!? Then when whoever comes in after him fixes it up and it starts getting better it will be “Trumps tactics and work in his term finally coming to fruition” and “despite their best efforts in this new administration to destroy it, Pappa Trumps policies from the previous administration are finally turning things around!”

    They are just sick in the head and short of the ICE Nazi’s dragging away the Trumpers own family to the concentration camps they will defend and excuse every bit of Trump’s bullshit.









  • Yup. Funny all the people blaming the bible like the dude up there calling it a stupid book… obviously hasn’t read it. The bible has great lessons, 90% of Christians just ignore them is all. Don’t blame the book for the idiots who claim to follow it when they actually aren’t. Even the stuff wanna be Christians quote thinking it supports their argument they are either misunderstanding or leaving out vital context. Real Christians are very rare and almost never associated with an organized church. They just quietly try to do their best they don’t try to use their belief to justify the rest of their life and bad decisions.






  • Lots of companies have people dedicated to deciding at what point it is cheaper to ignore safety regulations and take the fines associated with their employees dying than it is to follow the safety regulations. Literally whichever makes more money they do it, they give zero shits about you. They will replace you in a heartbeat the MOMENT a machine can do your job for cheaper. It may be five cents a day cheaper and they will drop your ass in a heartbeat and let you starve with not a care in teh world.
