I have a deaf and blind dog that loves his life. Dogs don't know they are disabled, their reality is all they know.
you're silly. I didn't make that claim. I simply restated the original point reframed from a different angle to point out how preposterous that idea is. Then you claimed I brought it up, which I didn't. And apparently you are so out of touch that you think that opinion is reasonable. Have a good day.
rude. You have no proof I am a detriment to society. I wished you a good day.
? you wanted to clarify that ACAB implies that ACAB applies specifically to the USA. implying that outside the U.S. there is at least one cop that is not a "bastard". I'm not sure what I said in my previous comment was inaccurate.
because the person I'm replying to said "means all in the USA", implying oustside the USA some cops are good. and then went on to clarify that not every cop outside the USA is wonderful. But they implied that some outside the USA are not "bastards".
you're silly. have a good day.
this person blatantly states police are a detriment to society.
Your stance is that every single police officer is a detriment to society and a piece of trash. And thusly our society would be better with zero police officers. That is absurd.
so only in the USA is every single Law Enforcement officer a "Bastard". What an absurd claim.
Budget would be the first thing. Day time soaps had way less money. They also constantly recycled plotlines and ran forever. Acting was way worse, sets were cheap. Biggest thing is: do to various ways to save money they have a very specific look. Even lighting so they can shoot multiple angles at once, lower framerate to save film. I can see 1 second of a daytime soap and identify it as such due to the specific look they have.
very much so
My views on minimum wage make me seem conservative or whatever, but I'm actually quite liberal on the matter of ensuring basic needs are met. I just believe an employers job is to make money, not provide a "living wage". It's the government's job to ensure its citizens basic needs are met. While increasing minimum wage could do that, I believe in a more targeted method. Such as no one under poverty level pays taxes of any kind, and food and utility subsidies.
That's what welfare programs should be taking care of. Obviously they aren't, but that's what they should be doing. Work 40 hours a week, and if that doesn't meet basic needs, welfare covers the gap. (not talking about disability)
yea, I don't know if that's true. A 15 year old who is willing to work for $11 an hour is doing it for video game money. They don't need a living wage. Just an opinion, nothing to get worked up about.
Some of them are probably dependents. Corn detasseling is not meant to pay the bills.
Thanks to Kim's convenience I know that you are Canadian and "hydro" is electricity not water.
Fortunately in the current economic climate, grocery stores are hiring at $16/hr. Now, if the supply of jobs goes down, companies will be able to get away with reducing starting pay much closer to minimum wage. But for now, minimum wage isn't much of a factor.
Or fashion has changed and we associate that fashion with older age. In this case, a moustache. And Ben Stiller probably uses wrinkle cream.
I think horror has a worse ratio when only counting first run theatrical releases. Bad action or sci-fi movies tend to go straight to home video, but the grudge 2 gets a full theatrical release.
lol, not sure what the bad faith is. I recognize we need a social safety net. My initial argument was simply, save for retirement like you won't be getting it. And it is very likely to be cuty by 23% at some point in the future, and apparently now full retirement age could be pushed back. Do I like it? no. Can I stop the politicians? my 1 vote probably isn't enough. So I simply recommend, don't include social security in your retirement plans if you can.
you don't have to be an amazing investor to put money in the s&P 500
I agree completely. I wish there was a fool-proof way to allow people to opt out who truly don't need it. But you're right, that is impossible.
of course the problem is that current social security payouts are paid with current social security payments. I'm not a big fan of a system that has the federal govt living paycheck to paycheck.
I welcome any counterpoints. so far you have none.
lol, no I'm right. We would all be better off if we took the money we pay into social security and invest in the s&p 500 instead. For those with dependents who would need coverage in the case of disability or death, they would be better off with term life insurance. The problem is, you can't trust the public to do that.
You will, and I will to. But I have no intentions of relying on it.
maybe, but I also thing it's a terrible program. I'm giving the govt money at a terrible interest rate. I understand everyone isn't going to save their money if you let them keep it, but If I got to keep and invest all the money i've paid into social security I would end up with a lot more money. I wish there was an opt out option if you prove your are saving enough yourself.
left and middle leaves plenty of room for the disabled in a vehicle behind the bus or bicycles.
