Also, every single cop is a bad cop. When one cop does hosed up poo poo, even the "good" cops cover for them. I don't think they should be shot, they should have a fair trial with the robot bomb.

I live in the US and I've never seen anyone open carry. I do know people that conceal carry handguns though.

Jeff Sichoe posted:Minimum wage in NZ is 11.0190 USD Do you live in New Zealand? minimum wage is like 7 bucks in most places in the US, 11 is an outlier. Also there arent better jobs, you moron. Wages have been stagnating forever. Do you know how housing costs in the US? You're out of your league here.

If you work 40 hours a week you shouldn't be struggling. Your solution is retarded. Work really hard at your lovely job, until u become CEO and then you don't have to do jack poo poo and you get paid on the back end.

Jeff Sichoe posted:Quite honestly I had no idea employers in your country are allowed to get away with paying a minimum wage which is below their living costs. You need to raise minimum wage, but employers are freaking the gently caress out. I forsee more jobs being automated and outsourced. We're basically hosed.

Moridin920 posted:Honestly as someone whose family came to this country after the collapse of the USSR when I was ~2 and worked from low income housing all the way to owning businesses and properties: we def worked hard but we also got lucky AS gently caress and also depended on a already pre-existing community of immigrants from our country to fall back on and help us out and get us business connections. Plus we're white. Plus my dad had a decent nest egg due to what amounts to 'Chance' cards when the USSR fell (he had friends in some government office that funneled money at us). This may be an unpopular opinion, but poor white immigrant communities tend to support each other much better than poor black communities. After MLK got killed, their communities went to poo poo real fast.

Jeff Sichoe posted:Right ok so you raise the minimum wage to meet the local costs, right? So in Harlem you'd raise it juuust enough so people (if smart) have a little money left over each month, for training, school for their kids, whatever? Nah the market is super hosed in Harlem because Bill Clinton put his office their and the rent skyrocketed as white people slowly moved in.

Moridin920 posted:There are def problems in their own community they need to fix. HOWEVER, at the same time, there are problems being dumped on them they have no power over. For example, the US drug policy creating a black market organized crime ridden system while floods of immigrants escaping from narco states compete with the jobs they would be trying to get. The system is hosed, do you think the drug war is going to end any time soon? Realistically, what are the solutions?

Moridin920 posted:I mean look man ofc there are gently caress ups and poo poo but all I'm saying is I don't think black people are just fundamentally different compared to white/latinos that they can't get out of the ghetto ever so surely there must be other factors to consider. Here's the thing; when a black dude is born, society as a whole doesn't think they are going to amount to poo poo. Literally zero expectations. The best case scenario is you graduate high school and don't end up in jail. Chances are tho that you will end in prison, because why wouldnt you sell drugs instead of working at McDonald's and struggling. Even the one bootstraps dude said his grandfather was a bootlegger. We need to hold the black community to a higher standard.

Cartouche posted:"We" could easily do so, if they didn't have their community "leaders" drumming it into their heads from birth that it's all whiteys fault. Fair enough. The black community has some lovely leaders. Doesn't change the fact they are disadvantaged by the system.

hemophilia posted:i find it unthinkable that conservative states with conservative minorities would favor the more conservative candidate that they are more familliar with. Then, white people over analyzed this and discussed it in disgusting ways, pissing off black people who would otherwise probably be on board in more liberal states. You don't have to be a dick I was really asking.
