I feel sorry for the earth's population, 'cause so few live in the U.S.A. At least the foreigners can copy our morality, they can visit but they cannot stay.

Still waiting on Oregon results but not holding my breath considering our prison population.

When slavery was abolished it specifically said it was still allowed as punishment for crimes.

Over here we have "community service" for minor crimes that don't need prison. Is this just smarmy wording for that?

To be fair, most employers here are paying well above min wage except shit like small mom and pop joints. Bigger employers have started to realize they have to offer more money if they want people to actually show up. This includes traditionally min wage jobs like fast food or grocery bagger etc

Most places are paying around a min of $10/hour here. No idea how that stacks up to other places with our ridiculously low cost of living. I'm renting a 3 bedroom house for $1200/month, for example

If it was about babies we'd have universal maternal care. There would be no charge no matter how complex the delivery. But its not about babies, is it?
