  • The United States will need 7 million migrants to cover old age support programs for baby boomers

  • Why do they need immigrants? There are people here now who need jobs, they can do it.

    If I hear “immigrants will accept lower wages” one more fucking time I’m going to lose it, that’s just an intentional creation of a lower class, it’s feudalistic and coercive. Same thing with farm labor. Pay a reasonable amount and local people will do it.

  • What country? Ghana? That is a ridiculous law.

  • Trump floats eliminating U.S. income tax and replacing it with tariffs on imports

  • The truly rich would be fine. They don’t pay income tax, they live off of capital gains.

    That’s just punishing people at the top of the working class. Doctors, lawyers, etc.

  • Tax cuts for the rich are capital gains tax cuts and corporate tax cuts.

    Income tax cuts don’t impact them, broadly.

  • Can we do mandatory civil service instead

    Like that would actually help people, building infrastructure, national parks, gaining skills and trades, maybe helping reduce obesity

  • Someone explain to me how this would benefit the rich. The rich don’t pay income tax.

  • EU elections 2024 live: Emmanuel Macron dissolves French parliament and calls snap elections after huge far-right gains

  • No. In the US at least, wages are up for blue collar work, and that’s where the economy was most vulnerable. Inflation has been bad but it’s coming back under control and wages can outpace it in the next couple years, median wage growth already has (yes I have a hard time believing this too, but that’s the numbers).

    The last financial crisis had a flagrant cause in default-prone loans. There isn’t such a problem right now.

    The largest crisis we are running into is a crisis of propaganda, where people are being told “everything is terrible” when in fact the numbers show that everything is pretty great… except for white collar tech workers (me!).

    I think the tech market will rebound the second that the fed lowers rates again, because tech is fundamentally capital intensive and speculative. So you need cheap money to fuel tech. Video games deflated/corrected a bit but that’s fine, those people can work on other things.

  • Is this because they waited too long, or because the answer is something other than anti-immigrant sentiment?

    For example, there’s this statistic that almost everyone dies shortly after having CPR performed on them. Paradoxically, that doesn’t mean CPR is bad: it absolutely saves lives. It’s just that they do it too late on a lot of people (and also perform it on a bunch of people who are going to die no matter what but that’s not the point of this anecdote).

  • I hear you, but I disagree. My people are great at slacking me or each other when they need stuff. We have a great collaborative atmosphere. They set up meetings with each other and with me as needed, and I’ve heard over and over that they really like that. I have weekly 1:1 meetings with each of them, and usually we hang up after 15 minutes because they know what they’re doing and can get back to it.

  • Imagine actually going to daily standup, wow

    I made a daily meeting invite, and told my team to never show up to it. Lets them show up to work an hour later since I put it in the calendar for 930-10.

  • Georgia court of appeals indefinitely pauses the election subversion conspiracy case against Donald Trump

    Jump

  • Correct it doesn’t, I agree. But that’s the status quo, that’s what the prosecution has to fight against. They ARE on their back foot because of Trump’s enormous and violent following. And when you’re on your back foot, you have to be perfect. It’s unfair and it’s total shit. But they screwed up.

  • Yes that’s so dumb. It’s like obviously stupid. He could have stepped down and I’m sure she could have instantly found someone impartial to take his place.

    I know there isn’t technically a conflict of interest, but there appears to be and that’s enough.

  • They’ve been raised on systems where you don’t need it, and they fundamentally don’t understand how one talks to a computer. It’s actually quite a bit to learn, and if you didn’t grow up doing it, it seems like a big cliff.
