Also, as someone who has actually lived in China, it is grey as fuck there all the time. Especially in winter months. Winter in Ningbo seemed like it had a permanent fog. Was grey for 6 months straight basically. The summer was pretty clear though.

We're probably going to have Covid every year from now on, too. You let a viral disease get entrenched in your population, good luck getting it out.

And "slightly worse"? Flu on average kills anywhere from 40,000 to 60,000 Americans a year. Covid has done 450,000 in that same time frame. So you regard something 8 to 9 times worse as only "slightly worse"?

Covid-19 has been 4X deadlier to Americans than fighting in either world War was.

Covid deaths (in one year): 450,000
WW1 deaths (in one year): 116,000
WW2 deaths (in four years): 407,300

This whole topic went directly over your head.

The historically recorded data does not match your guess on what would happen.

For huge corporations you'd be right about them being able to afford it but the problem is most businesses in the US are small businesses and simply couldn't afford the possible massive increase in salaries. If anything this would give more power to the corporations...

This isnt about any of that. Its simply mathematically what the minimum wage should be based on the rise in production over the last few decades. And, minimum wage increases have not been shown to raise prices significantly.
If said minimum wage is more than double, then yes it would because the increased buying power will lead to increased prices due to a little thing known as supply and demand.

Do you think the price of your meal at a restaurant will stay the same when said restaurants already operates on a 10% profit margin (roughly) are now paying 2.5x more for their staff (that's if you remove tipping and just add it into the price of the meal)?

A vast majority of businesses would not be able to afford to keep their doors open if the minimum wage was raised to $25...

Lol Texas

I'm in MN and the temperature hasn't been above 0 degrees in over a week. Southern states act so dramatic about the slightest hint of winter.

I live in northern Canada. It's been as low as -50C recently. The shit you guys get in MN is nothing compared to what we get.

But do you know what we both have in common? We live in places where cars are regularly equipped with snow tires. We live in places that have the infrastructure capable of getting enough ploughs on the road quick and efficiently enough to make the roads manageable. We live in places where our houses are properly insulated and don't have to worry about your pipes freezing.

You know what most of the south has? None of that...

I don't get why we should have to tip Amazon's delivery drivers but not UPS. Amazon should just pay them more and charge us the difference. Same for every tipping job, actually.
UPS isn't delivering groceries. This is about flex drivers who do regular deliveries of amazon products but also things like groceries. All while they are using their own vehicles. They need to pay for their own gas, insurance, upkeep, etc.

It's like driving for skipthedishes or doordash. If people didn't tip, you would practically make nothing because the base pay is so low. If 2 people who live 5 miles away don't tip and their orders are one after the other, you would make about $8/hour and that's before factoring in gas and everything else.

Which is what I just said. Learn to read and shut the fuck up.

Agreed, it should be close to $25. Right now the big number being floated around is $15, but its not nearly enough. Well take it over nothing, though, of course.

Lol what the fuck? $25/hout should be minimum wage? How much have you smoked today. Why would someone become a paramedic for example when they could make just as much working fast food or retail?

I work as a driver/mover right now. Do you think I'd be doing this job if I made the same amount as a high schooler working at McDonald's?

If the minimum wage is increased to $25/hour, then other more specialized jobs would need to increase salaries. Then prices rise and that $25/hour is worth fuck all.

I've tanked my kdr from 1.10 to .96 in a matter of weeks (and I only play a few hours per week). I don't know what it is. I play mouse and keyboard and I just can't get comfortable with the mouse anymore. Playing on console and recently switched to a tv from a monitor which has made the latency even worse which in turn makes my aim worse.

I know my arthritis plays a role but it can't be just that. I use the same kind of mouse I've been using for a long time. Feels like my palm isn't resting (on the mouse pad more than anything which has lowered my speed).

Thanks, I appreciate it. I've never been so filled with hate and disgust as I am now. He keeps escalating it further as well. I've told my dad that they're going to have to choose. That his youngest son has essentially told them they could never see their granddaughter again because we are all banned from his property and that's a thing I'm more than happy to oblige. He's already gone to social media with it for the family to all see but of course he doesn't include any of the actual details. I haven't replied or posted anything for the sake of my mom.

I'm waiting for my mom to get out of hospital before I sit both my parents down and give them an ultimatum. They either say something to him and not just a half asses talk. If they're unwilling to do that, they'll be blocked on social media and will never have contact with us again. I understand wanting to stay neutral but it's impossible to do that some times.

But tbh, I don't think my mom will come out of the hospital. Covid is really hitting her badly and she's not getting any better. The coughing started yesterday, she has the pneumonia and pretty much every other symptom.

If things take a turn for the severe, I'm going nuclear. I will post literally everything that has happened and tag friends and family. I have screenshots of scumbag stuff he has done over the years. I will also make it very clear that his bitch wife is the entire reason she is in hospital. She's there because she's incredibly selfish and broke an AHS mandated quarantine due to close contact with my mom, who had close contact with me. She decided because my mom tested negative that she didn't actually need to isolate for 14 days even though she was told she had to. We believe she got it from her cousin who tested positive just before New Years.

So, this year has been terrible to say the least. My wife, daughter, and I have lost everything due to the virus. Last January we flew my parents out to visit us in China (my dad had never seen my daughter and my mom hadn't seen here in 3.5 years). Well, the timing was obviously terrible. We lived in the neighbouring province to Wuhan. We ended up fleeing China in February because I was worried about my parents (both are extreme high risk). We want to to Thailand where my wife and I have a home. We ended up not being able to return to China because of boarder closures (whirlwind of a story on its own). We lost everything (job, belongings, a ton of money on flights, etc). We were forced to return to Canada.

This is where things really begin. My parents rent a 2 bedroom basement suite from my brother who lived upstairs. My parents wanted us to return to Canada and said we could stay with them as long as we needed. I agreed to $600/month in the belief that it would be going towards my parents rent and saving them money. Instead I found out it was all actually going to my brother. I could have understood a bit to him due to increased cost of utilities but all of it? Are you insane. My parents always knew it was not right but they were too spineless to say anything about it. He is literally stealing money out of my parents pockets who are already on a fixed income.

My brother got a job in another province and is moving. He's been there for 2 months now. Originally the plan was he'd move his wife and kids there in the spring. He wanted my parents to move upstairs and for us to take over the basement at double the price. They decided to move that time table up last month and want things to change at the end of February. I was very clear since it was first discussed that if my wife didn't have her work visa, we wouldn't be able to do it.

Well, due to the current global situation has caused immigration to be extremely slow. What normally would take 2-3 months has been over 7 months with no end in sight. Then to add insult to injury, I was laid off from my job Tuesday.

I told my dad that we would likely have to look for a 1 bedroom apartment because we wouldn't be able to afford $1200 if both of us aren't working. My plan was to make the decision this week and let them know we would leave at the end of February.

I changed my mind very quickly after that. Heard my dad talking to my brother about my mom (she's been hospitalized with the virus because my brothers wife decided to break her quarantine, get infected and then not mention she had symptoms). He then told my brother that I got laid off. You know what the first things he said were?

"How is he going to afford the rent?"
"Where are they going to live?"
"They can't go upstairs and live with you."

Well that made my decision easy. I was leaving that day. Went to a friend's house and he offered us his spare room for free for as long as we need it.

We packed up and left immediately. I sent him the rent money (always paid on the 20th because that is my payday). I then sent an extra $100 for the 15th to the 20th seeing as how the only thing in life that matters to him is money. I woke up to him calling me this morning. Claimed I still owed him $600 because I gave no notice. I told him to go fuck himself.

He then sent numerous messages to my wife and I, every message involved money or a threat of violence. My wife called him out on basically stealing money my parents for months. She then proceeded to block him.

It's caused a lot of drama to say the least. My parents want to stay out of it but I had a heart to heart with my dad an hour ago and told them he can't stay neutral. I asked him to look me in the face and tell me I was wrong. Tell me my brother isn't doing anything wrong. He just said "I've known it was wrong since the beginning?" Then why didn't you guys ever say anything or stand up for yourself?

I told my dad that as far as I was concerned, my brother isn't my family. He proved that small amounts of money is more important than family. All he needed to do was be a normal human being and talk with me. Instead he did what he did. He even went as far as cancelling my phone plan knowing that I am waiting on calls from the resumes I sent out. We were all on a family plan (including my parents) because it saved him money on his internet/cable bill.

I don't think I'm in the wrong but other opinions would be nice. I don't feel I had any reason to give him notice about leaving. Especially when there was never any such agreement. I also don't think I'm wrong for the wife or I calling him out on all of this.

My mom has been hospitalized. Tests confirmed this morning it is covid. Everything I've gone through over the last year has been for nothing. After the scare with me getting it over the holidays, you'd think it would be a wake up call but no, as soon as they all got their negative tests (parents, sister-in-law, etc) they basically went back to being reckless.

Sister-in-law started showing symptoms last Wednesday and didn't bother mentioning it until Monday when my mom started showing symptoms. Both had congestion and a sore throat. Both were positive it was just a "head cold". I fucking told them on Monday they should be tested again because it very likely is covid.

Even though we are in a complete lockdown where you aren't allowed to have gatherings of any kind, my sister-in-law still goes to her sisters house who has 5 elemantry school aged children, all of which are attending in-person classes. Plus the sister works with the public.

I'm just in complete and utter shock. My life has been destroyed trying to protect these people only for it all to be for nothing because of stupidity.
