Yeah they’re not hiding this in shell corps like a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tobashi_scheme. It’s out in the open for stupid investors to see and hype themselves over it.

Also how I feel about her coming back. Absolutely fabulous.

Oh yeah, the juche thing is just a joke, but it feels like someone lazily added crosstabs without thinking about what they meant.

Tend to be younger (59% are younger than 45, compared to 46% of non-democratic socialists aligned with the Democratic Party) and are more likely to be White (57% to 49%)

I really can’t parse what they mean by “non-democratic socialists aligned with the Democratic Party.” Juche supporters? Those younger than 45 who aren’t democratic socialists? What does the percentage have to do with age? Compared to what percentage for those older? Based on how I’m reading it, it’s saying that they skew younger but it’s hard to tell how much without knowing what percentage of total members are under 45. But it’s still quite broad based and not a youth or white movement based on those numbers.

Yep, the 5th protects you against bullshit charges too believe it or not. Perfectly valid.

You are always welcome here, my VERY special friend.

I think it’s bad framing. Deficit spending on war should be called out on its own potential badness compared to tax paid single payer healthcare. It’s easy to dismantle this kind of argument compared to explaining the actual plan in simple language. We will save everybody money and supercharge the economy with single payer healthcare by reducing how much you pay, how much your employer pays, and increasing overall quality. And we will pay for it at the same time. The only people who lose are middlemen and vultures whose income stream are dependent on the current system. And the provision of care will be responsive to what society wants (if folks actually take the responsibility to ensure it, which unfortunately Canada and the UK prove they often don’t). Comparing that, a real plan, to just dumping your money into a pit with a useless war and wasteful governance shows that you’re qualitatively different than the idiots who cannot pour piss out of a boot with the instructions on the heel.

It’s the rats, the rats in the walls.

While you stand on it and never think how can the floor.

But don’t actually join the Mafia or worse be an associate.

Another of the dissenting Justices, Samuel Alito, described the ruling as a “serious mistake” that “confers citizenship on virtually anyone who happens to be born in this country”, including those who come to the US with the explicit purpose of giving birth to a child and then returning to their country of origin.

Alito deciding he should legislate from the bench. Shocking.

They’re using post reconstruction citizenship theory from stuff like the Chinese exclusion act to argue about what the reconstruction framers meant and saying it’s originalist. It’s fucking bonkers

I agree. Unfortunately that would implode the western financialized system all the way to the middle class so your options tend to be revolution or waiting for it to blow itself up. I’d personally speed it up like condemnation of vacant properties and liquidity provided by state development banks to homeowners and businesses to buy said properties instead of waiting for vulture capitalists (blackrock) to buy things up when they’re the only ones with liquidity.

You hope to not see an underclass become exploited care workers/anything the economy has devalued as domestic/woman’s work? Good luck on that Mickey. It certainly isn’t a global phenomenon with feminism having a lot to say about it.

Because one of the biggest obstacles of continuity of care is handing over the patient. We try to write accurate notes and try to give complete report but there’s always stuff lost. You hope whoever you hand off to gets a chance to actually read progress notes but that’s not realistically going to happen. That’s why we don’t tend to do three shifts. Report easily takes 15 to 30 minutes of just talking and we still miss stuff.

Now you can set it up so this isn’t an issue but that requires staffing for clean documentation. I’d also like a pony.

Yeah I mean that goes hand in hand with the living wage argument. Where that goes and who absorbs the cost is in the weeds. Ex: landlords extract based on expected potential profit margins of the renter for commercial real estate so theoretically if margins drop everywhere all at once because of increased labor costs then rents drop to pay for that labor because unutilized real estate loses money. Unfortunately landlords are financed by banks and their mortgages create sticky price points that are very resistant to those drops. This isn’t taking into account general political resistance to property devaluation (which is huge). So telling you who is going to pay for it beyond saying “eventually it’ll get paid” is kinda impossible. Could be the worker, could be the consumer who is the worker, could be the capitalist, could be finance. Generally it’s a little of all. But you need strong unions to protect what little you got.

I dunno what to tell you. It’s not like you’re getting the fruits of your labor in the first place. They’re already paying you as little as they can get away with. How it shakes out depends on what economic frame you’re going with, but the idea is at least the lowest wage 4 day week is a living one. I don’t think getting into the weeds with inflation and such is worth it for this. Just accepting that you’re already not getting a realistic “piece of the pie” in any measurable sense should be enough.

Unfortunate picture. At my hospital nurses work 3 12s. That’s how we look after a run of 4. 36 hours treated as full time. Don’t really know how that would relate to a proposed 4 day workweek for normies.
