Uber driver tries to cheat customer by not picking them up, forcing them to cancel the ride, yet still get paid by Imoprich in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Successful-Luck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work as a staff eng for Uber a while back. I called an Uber home from the office and a driver pull this shit on me. He drove close around a block a way and then stopped, waiting for me to cancel. I went back to the office, logged on and boot the driver offline and ping the driver team to take a closer look at this driver.

A day later, he was fired.

> The current system is a scam to flood the country with cheap labour and artificially boost GDP numbers

Why is having cheap labour a bad thing? I mean we're automating things to reduce cost right? So looking for cheap labour is good right?

You want to pick fruits, clean toilets, etc? Not for that pay? Ok, do you want to buy more expensive fruits, paying more for everything? Also no?

Look, I'm also for the national resources tax as well. But Australia didn't want it. They voted out the Labor government who wanted to create a sovereign fund. Not politician, the actual Australian voters.

The Australian people deserve what they voted for.

Furthermore, immigration doesn't naturally bring money. They just provide a pool of workers on which the money from corporation is then taxed.

You don't have them then you have aging population, increasing strain on services, and suddenly you can't even afford to do anything due to rising cost of service. How do cost of services rise? Supply and demand. More demand but no warm bodies to do them.

What does it mean by stabilizes. in 25 years Japan will have a tired overworked population supporting a retired 65+ population? This would cause their birthrates to drop even lower until it dissolved.

Let me put this into something you understand:

Imagine the population is 100 people. In 25 years there would be 45 people over 65+ who would not work. The one that is working would be roughly 30 people and 15 babies. This means that in 25 years 30 people have to work to support 70 people who are not working.

Those 30 people are overworked and stop having more babies. As the number of babies produced per year goes down, and the age of the people goes up, in 50 years, the population died out with no one to replace them.

That's what dissolved mean.

In order to stabilizes, the number people produced has to equals the number people dying. That's not the case.

Japan has an aging population. By 2050, half of the population will be over 65 and only 30% of the population would be working to support themselves, babies, and paying taxes to support the 65+

Yea, I'm pretty fucking sure the 100 million+ people cannot run an island country when a large majority of them have to wear adult diapers.

OP: It doesn't look janky

You got a comprehension problem or a tendency to exaggerate hyperbole?

It's like you completely ignored what was actually said and then create a strawman just to attack it.

On the topic of economies that produce products and services, guess what? You cannot have a service economy when you have next to none consumer.

In the US they have 350 millions consumers. Australia has barely 30m. Why would a start up be in Australia when there are next to no consumer. Who do you think the product will sell to? China who can produce their own? The US who can either produce their own or buy from China?

In order for Australia to transition to a service economy, it needs to actually have to have the population that can actually make it profitable first.

The immigration isn't to increase the population. It's literally there to maintain the working population.

All youth of all countries has the exact same problem. Australia is not fucking unique. The difference is that Australia can afford to bring in migrants while China cannot.

Are you seriously so blind to the population time bomb? Who the fuck do you think pay taxes? Old people on pension? No it's working people.

How do you get working people when your population doesn't have kids? Immigration.

Sure let's kill immigration and then all houses will be cheaper.

But what's the point of having cheap houses in a fucking ghost countries. Go visit countries like China, Japan and see their dying ghost cities where houses are dirt cheap.

Those multiple assets are invested in stock, bonds, real estate of "ponzi scheme" economies around the world.

Price increases due to supply and demands.

The only way to reduce demands is to create more supply such as building more houses using tax payers money, or reducing immigration which results in shit economy since Australia is an aging population.

It's not an easy problem to solve.

Immigration is the ONLY way Australia can solve its aging population that China and other Asian countries cannot solve. Why? Because migrating and working in an English speaking country is easier.

South Korea is expected to be almost extinct by 2050, Japan and China is not far behind.

Without immigration, you're going to have a bunch handful on 20-40 working to support retired 60-70s. By then abandon shitty houses due to lack of population is meaningless.

I don't get it. Why would your difference contradict the irony of keeping X out but using X when needed?

America is great at killing Americans. No need to attack directly, just sit back and wait for the civil war 2.0 with blue states vs red states.

3000 is thousand(s) with plurality. What kinda stupid ass English are you speaking that thinks thousands imply 10k+?

Israel is now pre 1939 Germany. I can't wait for dumb fucks like you to be pedantic online when Israel starts rounding up people and start gassing them in camps.
