Wheeeew that's pretty bougie my dude in the context of a big mac not some beer-drunk massaged cow-nime burger. You gotta be fairly wealthy to 'afford' forty dollars a person at McTori's. But yeah common labor is massively undervalued and people think 'bad jobs' build character and lead to good jobs unless you're 'lazy'. If you want to reverse good will hunting and start cleaning toilets because you find it more rewarding it'd be nice if that was actually a workable option.

funny Star Wars parody posted:people don't seem to understand that their wages will increase as minimum wage does not necessarily, to reflect the increase in minimum wage in its prices, McDonald's would need to raise the price of a Big Mac by something like just five cents "minimum wage increase implies all wages inflate" is just a right-wing bogeyman: for most businesses, the cost of labor isn't the limiting factor in their products' or services' costs, but the averge business owner will be damned before they cut into their profit margin even the tiniest bit if it's to benefit labor (if it's to kill competition, though, they'll gladly sacrifice all the margin they possibly can and then some!)

it doesn't matter what logical arguments you make for an increased minimum wage. the people who are against it are operating purely on greed and/or spite and so don't respond to logic or empathy like, people will come right out and tell you that they don't' think the minimum wage should be increased because then a burger cook would be making the same amount per hour as they currently do as an office drone or w/e, and the idea of someone who makes hamburgers being paid the same as them is just abhorrent

people who do something critical to life, like making food or fixing toilets, are far more valuable to society than anyone who just pushes numbers around all day no matter HOW big the numbers are

yeah i was thinking the other day the pos is a lot quieter than it used to be. I remember back when I first started reading (2008? Macs were gay was the big rally at the time) there'd be at least a few hundred concurrent readers. Like, I can keep track of most of the frequent posters in the forums I frequent now. Never used to be able to do that.

a lot. Also is there a reason that the Patreon is for Gaming Garbage and not literally just "pay me to keep the forums open"? like that's about all he'd have to do. Just set a minimum monthly goal for keeping the forums open and it'd probably immediately hit that goal.
