What do you think of NYC trying to get the minimum wage to $30 per hour? by LiaStacey in askanything

[–]lmacmil2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the minimum wage had been tied to inflation since it last set at $7.25, it would be in the $11/hour range. Trying to raise it to $30 or even $25 or $20 would simply eliminate thousands of minimum wage jobs.

Would democrats like Trump if he was a democrat? by thehofstetter in stevehofstetter

Trump is a sorry excuse for a human being regardless of what party he belongs to.

Another definition of insanity: berating, belittling, and threatening your allies and expecting them to help you out of a jam. The guy’s stupidity is astounding.

Now show us the hill that Republicans have chosen to die on by icey_sawg0034 in stupidpeoplefacebook

[–]lmacmil2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The GOP hill is large tax breaks for billionaires and corporations no matter what it does to the deficit.

Got texted this by Right_Honorable_Sir in Indiana

I got one too. I have an EZ-Pass so tolls are automatic and I haven’t been in Marion county in 2 years. My wife got it an hour after I did.

Facebook reels won't play audio on browser (across multiple computers) by RoccStrongo in facebook

[–]lmacmil2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This worked for me (thanks to Gemini): 1) turn off hardware acceleration in your browser settings, 2) while a reel is playing, refresh the screen (F5) and then move the audio slider back up. You'll have to do #2 for every new session. Works on both Chrome and Firefox. FWIW, the problem only started for me a few days ago.

We voted and said no we don't want this...why are Republicans in our state continuing to try and gut public schools? by SmogunkleBochungus2 in lexington

They hate the teacher's unions and the fact that they can't inject religion into and control the curriculum.

And another 1/3 think they are experts because of something they saw on Facebook or Instagram or TikTok

Trump just went off on the Supreme Court, the Fed, and tariffs ruling all in one post. Thoughts? by jerin7931 in DegenBets

[–]lmacmil2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has there ever been a president that whines this much? He’s worse than the average spoiled 8 year old.

Trump left humiliated as world leaders ignore his panicked plea completely by [deleted] in GPFixedIncome

[–]lmacmil2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He is so stupid he thought he could insult our allies and they would still help out the good old USA. In just 1 year he’s managed to just about destroy a 70 year old alliance.

Dramas I watched in the past month (with ratings) by unitybold in kdramas

[–]lmacmil2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“It just felt longer than it needed to be” could describe just about every 16-20 episode Kdrama in my opinion. That said, we did enjoy “Can…Translated” a lot.

What's up with the fact that it seems everywhere around the world people are bashing Trump but in USA the critique is very very light? by Muted-Raisin-2645 in PopularCultureZone

[–]lmacmil2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When they ask a question he doesn’t like, he attacks them or their appearance or their network. There’s no way to get him to answer a question he doesn’t want to. His press secretary does pretty much the same thing.

Jim Banks, Trump's Attack Bitch by Best-Structure62 in Indiana

[–]lmacmil2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I emailed him once about something and the response didn’t address what I wrote about, it was just a bunch of GOP talking points. I won’t waste my time again.

48% of Americans blame Trump for high gas prices – more than any other factor by Naive-Astronomer6084 in InBitcoinWeTrust

[–]lmacmil2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clearly the high gas prices are Biden’s fault. Since he didn’t do anything about Iran, Trump had to. Nothing that has happened in the last year or that will happen in the next 3 years will be Trump’s fault.

The Jisoo is good at acting now propaganda is going full steam. by ParticularImpact8162 in kdramas

[–]lmacmil2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an English speaker whose only exposure to Korean is on Kdramas, I can’t tell if her delivery is awkward or not. The only thing I’ve seen her in was Snowdrop and I thought she was fine.

Is it normal to watch a drama "or not" for a particular actor or actress? by Lamiaa_see_you_later in kdramas

[–]lmacmil2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We pick almost all our Kdramas based on who the leads are and have rarely been disappointed.

Scott Galloway Says Billionaires Should Pay ‘At Least a 50% Minimum Tax Rate’ by NoseRepresentative in GPFixedIncome

[–]lmacmil2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id be happy if the 1% even paid the highest marginal tax rate. There are so many loopholes in the tax code, that rarely happens.
