^^^ I'm ignoring this! I don't see why service workers aren't paid a lot. Do you really want a bad bus driver/janitor/cook who doesn't care ruining your day? Didn't think so.

Woof Blitzer posted:^^^ I'm ignoring this! Everyone deserves a living wage. Minimum wage would be $22 an hour if it kept up with worker productivity. In some states or counties that would be a huge amount. In others, it wouldnt even cover the cost of rent of a 1Br apt. $15 minimum wage is a stepping stone, not the end goal. Janitors and housekeepers have to deal with bodily fluids including poo poo and vomit. God Bless them, they deserve hazard pay.

What's the point of having more money than you or your descendants can ever spend if you don't have the knowledge that somewhere, there's an impoverished worker caste that is going to work themselves to death just to be unable to provide for themselves?

Hot Karl Marx posted:Pay them more than that then, idc, it's your kids education Speaking as a teacher, and many I know agree, if you were to spend a lot of money to improve schools I'd sooner take more hires over a bigger paycheck. Small classes make such a difference in the ability to actually teach.

Our new chief was talking about minimum wage with our Crowder doofus and shared his opinion that if you pay entry level workers too much they won't try to move up in the world. Imagine, a GS doesn't understand that the economy doesn't work like that anymore. You can get stuck at the bottom for a long loving time, and some people can only handle that kind of work. He's otherwise ok, but that was a dumb loving opinion to have.

https://www.revealnews.org/article/they-thought-they-were-going-to-rehab-they-ended-up-in-chicken-plants/quote:But in the rush to spare people from prison, some judges are steering defendants into rehabs that are little more than lucrative work camps for private industry, an investigation by Reveal from The Center for Investigative Reporting has found. "By forming a Christian rehab, they could supply plants with a cheap and captive labor force" I know this isn't even the worst thing going on in a country where providing healthcare to 9/11 first responders was a politically contentious issue, where underage asylum seekers are conflated with criminals, where mass shootings are ubiquitous, and the president laughs about shooting migrants, and where women in some parts of the country have fewer reproductive rights than their mothers did at their age, and climate change isn't real, and abstinence is the answer, and charter schools for all except you poor kids you can go join the military, and, and, and And those words in that order are still loving evil. Jesus loving Christ, this country.

Eh, fits right in with Supply-Side Jesus talk. For-profit imprisonment isn't lucrative enough, let's throw a veneer of Good Christian Stuff on it and force them to work for free. Much more profitable when then government supplies your slaves and pays for their food and shelter. You don't even need to buy them from across the ocean and take care of them anymore! No private investment needed, just socialize all the costs and take the profits.
