I support giving the landscaper a jail sentence, that sort of behavior coupled with his battery charge indicates a human grenade that needs a pin re-inserted. That, and being a 100% asshole.
Of course, if he was an illegal who "no se habla", nothing would have been done. Posted by: exdem13 at July 29, 2015 08:14 AM (ry4ab) 3

I did some research on the min wage laws here few years ago. Each time we have raised it the unemployment among teen workers plummeted. The first time job seeker who needs it the most gets screwed. It usually too a number of years to catch back up.

Yeah. I don't grok conservatives pooh-poohing animal abuse. Because we're issue oriented and animal abuse isn't an issue, it's an unimportant distraction from far greater evil that goes on every single day. If there were some greater movement to abuse animals, rather than just a few wackos doing wacko stuff, there might be a point to making a big deal out of animal abuse.

The Insidious Political Powers Of Minimum Wage Laws
My Liberalest brother is going full Progtard/Social Justice Whiner about minimum wage. The "only" reason you could not support a $15.00/hr minimum wage is "because you don't think people deserve a living wage." Also: it is a "lie" that hiking the minimum wage costs jobs. Minimum wage increases have "never" caused anyone to lose a job. Of course, all the people formerly employed by businesses that shutter in the wake of minimum wage increases would be surprised to hear that, to say nothing of the people who never get hired because instead of being able to expand, businesses now suddenly have to pay more for labor than it's worth.

Forget "years." In most places I've seen in my area, you start at minimum, but if you last out your 90 day So even a high school student, if he or she sticks around and doesn't screw up too badly, is probably making a good $1/hr over minimum in a year. And for a high school student - one of the larger target demographics for minimum wage jobs - a buck an hour is pretty good.

Do you have any idea how hard it is for a person who spends his entire working life at a minimum-wage job to make ends meet?
Not very. Because even if you're a single white dude, if you're only making minimum wage, you're already eligible for SNAP and other other programs. Section 8, etc. So my tax dollars are already going to subsidize your loser lifestyle. I don't want that AND to pay an extra $2.00 per hamburger at McDs. That's always been the lie: "Do you know how hard it is to make ends meet on minimum wage!?!?!?!" Forget the arguments that "minimum wage is supposed to be entry level, stick it out a year or two, work hard, and you'll be better off." No one is listening to that. So call out the lie. It's *not* very hard to make it on minimum wage. Our socialist state is already garnishing my wages to pay for the fact that you're a dead-end loser with no prospects and no future.

My first job was when I was 16, McDonald's, making minimum wage...$3.35/hour.
Within sixty days I already had a raise. After a year I was well above minimum, could have had a full 40 hours/week if I wanted, hell, could have had regular overtime if I wanted to as well. Point being, minimum wage is entry level. A person who has to subsist on minimum wage has life problems that a higher wage isn't going to solve. Call it lack of skills or lack of work ethic, or whatever, but simply raising the minimum wage doesn't do jack...and all the stupid propagandized anecdotes don't change that fact.

The high temps here are so disappointing to the cult weathermen they post the "Heat Index" estimates instead of the actual temps...liars... One of the things we monitor for our RF Instrument lab is the solar energy index of absorbed and incident solar that reaches the ground. The ratio is steady at about 47% but the intensity is lower the past two years. Because weather driven temps are the product of pressure and flow there will always be highs near or exceeding records... What is not mentioned by any of these liars is the cold indexes are shattering record and outstrip the heat indexes about 1.7 to 1 Posted by: Mr Wizard at July 29, 2015 09:15 AM (eOpVe) 156

The guide notes that "American" is problematic because it "assumes the U.S. is the only country inside [the continents of North and South America]."
________ It's a cultural thing. Europeans have similar words for American (americano, americain, Amerikaner, Americanyets) but in South America, "American" means what we would call Pan-American. To them, anyone in the New World is "American" and they call U.S. citizens "estadounidense" to make the distinction. This is not new. Side note: The official name of Mexico is United States of Mexico (in Spanish, of course) and there's a push to change the name of the country to just "Mexico" because what it is now is confusing.

Do you have any idea how hard it is for a person who spends his entire working life at a minimum-wage job to make ends meet?
Posted by: FireHorse at July 29, 2015 08:26 AM (k9a6m) So you support minimum wage at $25/hr to make sure everyone not only has a fair shake, but can afford the resultant inflation? Good for you. Thomas Malthus discussed this in 1798 in his Principals of Population: Suppose that by a subscription of the rich the eighteen pence a day which men earn now was made up five shillings, it might be imagined, perhaps, that they would then be able to live comfortably and have a piece of meat every day for their dinners. But this would be a very false conclusion. The transfer of three shillings and sixpence a day to every labourer would not increase the quantity of meat in the country. There is not at present enough for all to have a decent share. What would then be the consequence? The competition among the buyers in the market of meat would rapidly raise the price from sixpence or sevenpence, to two or three shillings in the pound, and the commodity would not be divided among many more than it is at present. When an article is scarce, and cannot be distributed to all, he that can shew the most valid patent, that is, he that offers most money, becomes the possessor. If we can suppose the competition among the buyers of meat to continue long enough for a greater number of cattle to be reared annually, this could only be done at the expense of the corn, which would be a very disadvantagous exchange, for it is well known that the country could not then support the same population, and when subsistence is scarce in proportion to the number of people, it is of little consequence whether the lowest members of the society possess eighteen pence or five shillings. They must at all events be reduced to live upon the hardest fare and in the smallest quantity. Posted by: Kindltot at July 29, 2015 09:38 AM (3pRHP) 218

While I'm sympathetic to employees who want to be paid fairly, I prefer to help on an individual basis. I'm also skeptical that a modest pay increase will make an unskilled worker less reliant upon an employer whom they affirmatively resent. I explained this to Jobs With Justice in an open letter, and invited anyone who felt mistreated to explore the many training opportunities and scholarships available through mikeroweWORKS. I further explained that I couldn't join them in their fight against "bad jobs," because frankly, I don't believe there is such a thing. My exact words were, "Some jobs pay better, some jobs smell better, and some jobs have no business being treated like careers. But work is never the enemy, regardless of the wage. Because somewhere between the job and the paycheck, there's still a thing called opportunity, and that's what people need to pursue."

And let's just get this out of the way, the vast overwhelming majority of legal immigrants are coming from the exact same sources as illegal immigratons.
The vast majority of legal immigrants come from Mexico and to a lesser extent South America, Asia and India. The vast majority of illegal immigrants come from Mexico and to lesser extent South America, Asia and India. Other immigrant groups are being ushered in from conflict countries like Somalia, Syria, Kenya, etc. Basically America has become a dumping ground for the third world. Immigration from Anglosphere and first world countries is now virtually non-existent. Official policy of the U.S. is geared solely at diminishing the white majority and creating a permenent grievance class. The white population was roughly 78pct in '65 it is now 62pct and dropping like a stone. If It goes under 60pct this nation is finished. And if you think all of those affirmative action and other programs geared at minoroties will be open to whites once minority status is achieved, you better dream on. The time for this fight is now. This is literally the hill to die on. Posted by: Kreplach at July 29, 2015 09:54 AM (7mKz/) Posted by: phoenixgirl, i was born a rebel at July 29, 2015 09:55 AM (0O7c5) 261

Migrant. Per GM, the proper inclusive term is "migrant". Posted by: Laurie David's Cervix at July 29, 2015 09:21 AM (kdS6q) I don't want to be inclusive. Posted by: rickl at July 29, 2015 10:09 AM (zoehZ) 271
210 That article on Trump has the scary ending that Trump in the race means Hilary wins. But they don't discuss why that matters if the Rep candidate has the same agenda.
Posted by: Notsothoreau at July 29, 2015 09:37 AM (Lqy/e) -------------- Even with the same agenda, it matters. Two big reasons: 1) Hillary is a paranoid sociopath, corrupt beyond all measure. Downright criminal. (I'd take Sanders over her so fast it'd make your head swim.) 2) With any GOP president, we get a critical media, i.e., some kind of monitoring. With any Dem, we get Pravda. So it does matter. In the long term? Eh. Maybe no big diff. I think our problems are too far gone for political solutions. A genuinely conservative POTUS might slow the rot but, given the present culture and demographic changes, that's about it. Posted by: Margarita DeVille at July 29, 2015 10:11 AM (cN9Sk) 272

Invasion through a gate. Yukikaze or do we want the Looking Glass stories? Or the two books by David Weber and Linda Evans about Hell's Gate? How about Pacific Rim? Sorry exdem13, I have read or seen that plot trick far too many times. -------------- You are too young to be so cynical about the story Anna. Posted by: exdem13 at July 29, 2015 10:11 AM (ry4ab) 273

Skimmed the comments, and, if I read correctly, Ace's dog has announced as a transgender and is moving to Austin. Poor Ace.

While it's too bad the lion was shot and the duck story is disgusting, it's even more disgusting that there is more outrage and anger over lions and ducks than there is about selling the organs of human babies.
Did Kimmel get teary-eyed when (if) he viewed the PP vids? Or did he just shrug and say something about "medical necessity?" Posted by: Donna V. (sans ampersands) at July 29, 2015 10:20 AM (u0lmX) 278

I'm going to guess that Ace started writing a movie review and it morphed into a 7 part epic tale of one man's quest to find a really good and reasonably priced pair of boots.
Then Peter Jackson optioned a screen play, started building sets in New Zealand and well...it got complicated from there. Posted by: JB1000 at July 29, 2015 10:28 AM (16OL0) Processing 0.03, elapsed 0.0414 seconds. |
