Anyone taking bets yet on how long it will be before he gets "disappeared"?

I am pretty sure whoever really Luigied Brian Thompson will Luigi any conspirators.

But in all seriousness, he needs a major security detail at all times, and he needs to be pragmatic about public appearances.

Everyone knows hemesley and witty conspired against him. In reality UHC was actually be investigated for insider trading, and he would be a weak point that can bring them all down.

Hey Foxies, how would you like to have an easier life?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 15 hours ago

"No way. It's only fair if everyone has as miserable of a life as I have!"

TFW your government literally just hooked a brain dead pregnant woman up to life support against the wishes of her family, to force her to give birth, but somehow tries to paint political promises of baby baskets for newborns as dystopian nightmare fuel.

Wasn't the baby just delivered a few days ago, very premature? Wasn't it also known that it had hydrocephaly? (both things not very compatible with life)

Using a braindead woman and her braindead premature fetus as political football against the wishes of her family.

That's so evil it's a fucking cartoon. Like twirl your moustache, give an evil laugh, and then steal a blind person's cane while jaywalking.

Not sure about hydrocephalus, but it was delivered at the earliest point the hospital was willing to do. The chances of the baby surviving are low regardless of other complications like that.

I learned after, the mother was literally rotting on the table. This was only done because it was a black woman without the resources to fight back.

USD$30 is a pretty good minimum wage. That's almost twice as much as I made at my first full-time job.

Was it in New York and was it recently?

It may or may not compare, I guess. Hard to tell.

Edit: with inflation and location in mind

what year, and how much exactly per hr. I would love to point out how inflation works to you. the average worker in the 50s at an entry level, no high school diploma required job, was making A LOT MORE than you'd guess after factoring in inflation.

It's amazing, all they need to do is write "socialist" and like Pavlov's dogs maga instantly react with no thought...

How to make maga hate anything: "it's socialism!"

[–] [email protected] 7 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) (1 children)

Holy shit youre onto something. These socialist fucking billionaires and their socialist lap dog politicians are ruining this country.

God damn socialist police force and socialist immigration enforcers

Edit God damn communist president and press secretary.

What makes them think they can use OUR money for THEIR bullshit?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Problem is a lot of them would agree with you on the first one, and say all the billionaires are in fact democrats. It's impossible to even backwards reason with the right/YouTube/fox mind...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

It doesn't matter. They're "bullies" and they don't know what words mean so you throw it right back at them. Woke cummunist Trump doing some more bullshit

Baby basket may sound like a weird one without context if you're not already familiar with them, but I assume he's talking about a maternity package, or "baby box" which is a wildly successful program in Finland and other parts of Europe. It's a cardboard box filled with baby supplies, and the box itself doubles as their first crib. It's not legal in the US ostensibly because of the cardboard, but functionally cuz we like to punish women every chance we get. Anyway, being cardboard causes literally zero problems, they help to prevent SIDS, and they're cheap.

We should have been doing this for ages.

BTW $30 isn't like a crazy high number for minimum wage. The current number is well below the poverty line for families everywhere in the United States, and New York has a very high cost of living. Minimum wage is explicitly intended to provide "the wages of decent living." $30 per hour might actually be too low for New York City. $61,500 a year is barely going to pay the rent in the shittiest neighborhoods. https://www.zillow.com/rental-manager/market-trends/new-york-ny/

It's accountability for the fact that cost of living has risen astronomically and for quite a while since the time that $7.25 or even $16.50 was a livable wage, especially in NYC

Conservatives are going to scream about minimum wage not fixing the problem but the fact is cost of living is not going down even with their best efforts. It's time to go up, and that's not an unreasonable amount.
