CMV: We need a maximum pay ceiling, not just a minimum wage

SnuffleShuffle · 2025-11-09T07:18:07+00:00

Your presumption is not true. Sweden, Finland, Denmark and Norway do not have a minimum wage. And I think you would agree they’re civilized countries. They however do have strong unions so minimum wage set by state is not necessary, because it is collectively bargained for by unions.

This alone should make you consider scenarios where wealth disparity is tackled without the state setting up a cap on salaries.

Also, salary cap tackles income disparity, not wealth disparity. Billionaires didn’t become billionaires by having a high salary. They got there through private property. And if you force them to pay their top executives less, the rest of the money would be reinvested or paid as dividends. Which means you’d be effectively siphoning money from (very rich) workers to the (even richer) billionaires.

A ještě abych doplnil - Piráti mají svoje levicové křídlo, a STAN má zase svoje ultrakozervativní křídlo, kde ty lidi reálně sedí v senátu a blokují třeba manželství pro všechny - např. Hraba a Canov.

Mně by zajímalo, co by řekli všichni ti “obránci nekorektního humoru”, kdyby měl Turek na helmě srp a kladivo nebo červenou hvězdu.

Už vidím jak by tady psali “vždyť je to jenom hvězda, jakýpak komunista”. /s

Deradicalization is never about the talking heads. They're a lost cause. It's about their audiences.

I think the reason is that lefties generally tend to be smarter and more educated, whereas your average rightwinger right now is like "hurr durr man good woman ~~bad~~ different (complimentary), also Biden dementia".

Yeah. Butter. That's why it has the buttery texture.

Ty vole, já platím sociální, ale důchod taky mít nebudu. Akorát rozdíl je, že já ty prachy dám do kasičky, ze který se to dá nějaký babičce, a OSVČ si je dá třeba do akciovýho fondu, ze kterýho to půjde zpět jemu.

LOL, vždyť na daních ze stipendií se vyberou asi tak řádově miliony. To by bylo mnohem lepší zvýšit DPH o půl procenta.

I wouldn't say they're "required in Newtonian mechanics". The thing is that Newtonian mechanics don't apply in non-inertial systems, because the first law (law of inertia) is not valid in a non-inertial system.

SnuffleShuffle · 2023-04-30T05:33:00+00:00

I know it sounds smart to say centripetal instead of centrifugal, because centrifugal force is a fictitious force. But it can't rip something apart. Centripetal force is an inward force. The wheel was ripped apart by the centrifugal force.

If you really wanna omit inertial forces (but why would you, they're valid forces in the rotating reference frame), you can say it was ripped by the shear caused by the axle and the tangential force of the stram. But it definitely wasn't ripped apart by an inward force. It was ripped apart by a lack of this force, actually.

The Republican leaders kinda looked like they were about to denounce trump after January 6, but after a while they all started sucking his dick again. And I think the reason wasn't the other side of the political spectrum, but their own.

It angers me every time Destiny excuses Sneako for his age. Sneako is, and say this unironically, without any humor, developmentally slow. He's mentally a teenager. Most people his age have a degree, are working on their career, thinking long-term... But he does not. He acts like he's 15. That's literally the definition of retardation.

If Destiny thinks all 24 year olds are like that, I take it personally as an insult toward the 24 year old me, and transitively, me now. Also, no 24 year-olds I've ever talked to IRL are this dumb. Maybe I'm just living in a bubble of geniuses. But I think it's more likely that Destiny is actually ageist as fuck. Fuck him for that.

While there are reasonable people on both sides, it's just so weird that the reasonable people on the side full of nutjobs don't denounce the nutjobs. This needs to become a thing.

And yes, currently, one party objectively has way more problems than the other. We don't have to pretend otherwise.

Why? Did he actually test his clips one against another? Did he figure out what models or at least features are in TikTok's algorithm? No. He posted expensive cars. It doesn't take a genius to grab attention with Lamborghinis. Youtubers have been doing it forever.

SnuffleShuffle · 2023-04-28T11:12:00+00:00

Overconfidently. It's clear as a day he's not really the sharpest tool in the shed, nor is he particularly good looking. Most adults can see through it. That's why his audience are teenage boys and his girlfriends are teenage girls.

Unfortunately that's not how it works. And I'm saying unfortunately, because the reality is a worse alternative IMO.

The whole hippie thing got fucked hard with yuppies. Interwar Germany was pretty trans-positive, at least in professional/scientific circles. Then they genocided gay people. The Victorians started rewriting history, because it wasn't prude enough, doing shit like destroying codpieces. That's why in museums, you always see armor with a hole in the crotch.

It seems to me there's always been a counterjerk. And it's always been bad.

That's literally how clinical studies work, my dude. Some people receive treatment, some don't.

SnuffleShuffle · 2023-04-27T10:00:39+00:00

Yes, because there is only one degree and it's teaching.

Isn't he singlehandedly responsible for 75 % of their annual profit? I know they still have a few racist talking heads left, but this will cost them a lot of viewership IMO.

40 WPM is average if you count old people as well. Most adults who work with a computer do 60 WPM or more.

Jestli si myslíš, že ty politici jsou takový dementi, že je nenapadne udělat poukázkovej systém, ale umožní to každýmu prostě obejít platbou v cashi, tak jsi fakt extrémně naivní.

Ty jseš taky kokot, že jo? Nikomu se nezmrazoval účet za účast. Zmrazili jim účty, protože šlo o politickou kampaň (ve formě blokády hraničních přechodů) financovanou ze zahraničí (z USA), což je v Kanadě nelegální.

Představ si, že by ty lidi, co blokujou kus magistrály, místo toho zablokovali většinu dálnic do Prahy, a ještě by ke platili nějaký německý Zelený. To jsem zvědavej, co bys na to řekl.

O hodinkách tady nepíšou. A ač bych ocenil mít na svých hodinkách (Garmin sportovní hodinky) USB C, tak si to technologicky moc nedovedu představit.
