   The right understanding the frustrations of the working class has been huge, getting away from this retarded bootstrapping Reagan-era nonsense was huge

     @gentoobro I'd rather just not finance foreign wars. But, rugging the boomers would be pretty dope too, though. @PraxisOfEvil @DemonSixOne

     Rug the boomers and cut off the welfare and they could still finance foreign wars. Can't do all three. Especially not with Obama's Big Pharma Tax still going.

     @gentoobro But, how else can we finance Israel and Ukraine? @PraxisOfEvil @DemonSixOne

     @PraxisOfEvil I had a boomer a while back that was complaining that he had gotten no applications for an IT assistant position except for ones from 67 IQ or people with extensive felony records. Turns out the posting was for $14/hr in a major metro, and he didn't believe me when I explained that its because the corner gas station wages start at $20+benefits.

     There is similar inflation here in Mexico but the wages rise with it so it's not a big deal from a wage perspective. (Still fucks your savings, but that's a different story.) A big part of the "labor shortage" in the US is that the rapidly rising total taxation rate, which includes inflation, fees, and obligatory insurance purchases, has pushed many marginal businesses into the red, and a lot of businesses were marginal. To pay more they'd have to raise prices but raising prices will hurt sales enough to bankrupt the company because people are too poor to pay those prices, even with higher wages, because the government is sucking up so much money at every step of the process.
