uhm no. Less government is less ability to regulate. Doesn't speak to need, desire or requirement. But to get there, you still need a mechanism that collects, directs and enforces the direction provided by each tax-payer. In essence you are advocating a massive increase in regulation and government in the short term. You have also not provided your mechanism for how short-funding, over-finding and non-funding would be dealt with. I get the sense maybe this was a nice sound-bite you heard somewhere, but haven't really thought it through?
-
I agree.
-
Except it is not the same. You are creating a false equivalency. Similar to Hunter Biden? Do you have any evidence Joe Biden brokered the deal to have Joe employed? You are simply just making shit up. It is straw man after straw man after straw man.
-
majority of which driven by short-sellers. But, Tesla reported a profit.
-
The fine result of less regulation. Still left unanswered.
-
Right. So Ivanka and Jared are profiting while being employed by the White House. Do you understand that is not an equivalent situation to Hunter Biden? If you understand that, you should also understand why your "but, Biden" while ignoring Ivanka and Jared is so incredibly biased. (and just a repeat of a right wing talking point)
-
How do you design a framework where people have direct say in how their tax dollars are spent with less bureaucracy? The people killed on Boeing jets are very happy about less restrictions.
-
How much of a tax increase are you willing to pay to build a bureaucracy that manages every single person's direction? What is your plan on how to fund requirements that nobody wants to pay for, or not enough people want to attribute to?
-
Yes, from what I know so far I will indeed support them. There is no indication to date they have done anything illegal. I don't think Hunter should have gotten that position, but there was nothing illegal. Do you understand the difference between Hunter and Ivanka?
-
I think that is not true and a lot of false equivalencies are assumed.
-
Good scenario. If your first lady was Mexican and didn't enjoy showing her tits to old white men, do you think the republicans would have had a problem with her using chain migration to bring her family to the US? Oh Turtle, where art thou......
-
No. But I agree that you can be forced to do something you don't agree with. Like pay taxes.
-
So you agree that if Trump were black he would have never been supported by Republicans. I mean "IF" we just get to make up random scenarios and assign random reactions to it....
-
Which conversely would mean that savings get passed on to the consumer....right? Which means that after your great tax cut inflation must have dropped significantly, since all those products are now cheaper......right?
-
So quite a bit more lacks than drinking and driving laws by the looks of it. (never mind that here continue to be states who have no problem with guns and alcohol together). -
How old are you? Considering you are older than 12, I am surprised you just now are figuring out the world isn't black and white.
-
Yes. Varying results means that: "anyone with a brain understands that artificially raising the minimum wage has negitive results" is simply not true. That the issue is significantly more nuanced. In other words, you are cherry picking anecdotes to confirm your already established opinion.
-
There is a decent body of work on the effects of mandated minimum wage increases. Many with varying results. I think it is telling that like your opinion regarding climate change, you prefer anecdote over data.
-
So treating employees well is not part of their fiduciary responsibility to shareholders. Regardless, as Joe pointed out, the article isn't really all that informative.
-
Sounds like you are accusing of Target not living up to their fiduciary responsibility....Remember, you started this with an article of Target team members indicating they are not being treated well? Target has a long term incentive plan for their key team members to address the quoted issue. How many of the $15/hr staff do you think are part of that LTIP?
-
Bill Taylor's testimony could not make the case for impeachment any clearer.... https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1186747562616938496?s=20
-
Sounds like a scheme the NRA would approve though. Motivates people to buy guns.
-
Which NATO obligation was the US afoul off prior to pulling out so fast the Russians have already taken over your bases in Syria? Don't think the NATO framework has wording around facilitating invasions and attempted ethnic cleansing.
-
Singularly like that, no it wouldn't be. But indeed a fine example how a free market does not lead to good treatment of staff.
-
I don't think there is any doubt in anybody's mind that if left without regulation a company will try and minimize its outlay, which includes their employee expenses. That companies that use low-skilled labour hold the balance of power in that relationship is also not a big surprise.
