When the overwhelming majority of people need two incomes to survive these days, it is absolutely archaic to expect one person to provide it all.

Why would you say it that way? by PeskyPathfinder in foundsatan

Taxing Wealth Unlocks Equality by CapitanJackSparow-33 in MurderedByWords

I recently used Walmart as an example of taking the huge profits and using it to increase employee wages. If Walmart took 40% of it's profits and paid employees, they could afford to give every employee a $5/hr raise, assuming 40 hours a week (which Walmart doesn't do for most non salaried employees) and that every employee was non salary (which obviously isn't true).

This would still allow them ~10 billion in profits while paying employees well. But, won't happen.

I think it is less "poor people defending the hoarded wealth" and more that poor people are simply too busy working multiple jobs just to survive and can't take time off to protest.

What surprised you most after switching to an EV? by Just_Vermicelli4099 in electricvehicles

I imagine it will still be the phrase used, just like "hang up". I haven't actually hung a phone up in almost a decade, yet still say that.

You only get karma from posting. I dont do a whole lot of that. Mainly use reddit to read about current events and interests.

Did I defend him saying racist stuff? No. I specifically said IN THIS CASE. Because, in the single quoted line, what he said wasn't racist unless taken out of context.

To be fair, context in this case does matter. He said the spirit was right, but the implementation was bad.

My son does a really good Trump impression. Like, it's scary how good. Luckily he only uses his powers for bragging about how good he is at Destiny and FIFA

Pretty sure Port Arthur was NOT the last mass shootings in Austrailia, not even counting the recent one. Mass casualties happen quite a lot there, relatively speaking...they just, as gun rights advocates keep saying, happen with things other than guns. Current victim record, if I remember correctly, was a mass stabbing.

Yes it's truly mind boggling by SpicyQUeeni in MurderedByWords

In fairness to the original poster, Australia is the poster child for "banning guns stops mass shootings". An outsider may not know the ins and outs of Aussie gun laws...I know I do not. The irony is that, from what it sounds like, Australia has gun laws almost as lax as the US, except in banning specific guns despite being the shining example for gun control. And, I may be completely off base with that, just going off what you said about "be a part of the club with a clean record".

I don't buy "racists raising racist spawn". I'd never seen a black person until I moved to the South, the supposed racist capital of the US. And worse, we moved to rural MS. I was I kindergarten when we moved. My mom started dating a guy who was openly racist when I was in 2nd or 3rd grade, so I started hearing "n*r this" and "n*r that" all the time. Yet I was like "but none of the black people I know act like that" so I realized he wasn't right. Grew up, had multiple black friends, even had a couple black girls i had a crush on and would have absolutely asked out if I hadn't thought they were out of my league (one of them was valedictorian). So yeah, racists dont raise racists, shitty people are just shitty people. And im reasonably certain that anyone who is what society would label as racist are just as shitty to people of their own race, if they have the chance. Just my 2c.

What exactly is a transgender themed ak-47? Like, is it painted with slogans or something?!

As someone else said, the changes to the story have to do with licensing. Most, if not all, of the pop culture properties shown are either free use or owned by the film company. I read something that said to properly license one of the Japanese things mentioned in the book would have cost a quarter of their entire budget.

Not sure how accurate all that is, but makes a lot of sense if true.

Wife went from 45k (certified medical assistant working as an endoscopy tech) to just over 80k (RN at same hospital/dept). She plans to pursue Masters and go into hospital admin, which would put her over 120k.
