They are all evil, so just choose the cheapest one.

Start reading about business, and start thinking about a micro business you can start with very little money, and start doing it. Never forget that the ONLY goal is to make a profit, because that is your income.

If you’re going to work that hard to make some rich guy richer, why wouldn’t you do that for yourself?

I had that revelation 30 years ago, and I’ve been mostly self-employed since. Even in those times when I wasn’t, I was still working for my own benefit, not anyone else’s. Those jobs didn’t last long. I can only work for myself. I’m a good boss, I get away with everything.

I’d consider it for:

• The right job
• The right money

But it’s going to have to be the kind of job I would put in those kinds of hours for free, and get paid at least triple what is reasonably expected.

Good, keep those freaks away from the rest of us.

Prices always rise, that’s life. But when I can get equal service at half the price, I’m taking the cheaper option. I need the money more than some evil transnational corporation.

Ask them, I’d bet you’d find some takers.

I just quit Verizon after nearly 20 years with them. Their service got worse and worse, and their prices kept rising. I switched to T-Mobile, and the service is about the same, but it’s less than half the price.

Pizza or Lasagna. I could never get tired of either.

That ship’s already passed, women have been loving on hand-held robots for decades now. I would bet that some women love their buzzy little friend more than the man in their lives.

We are entering an era in business in which the paradigm will be to give the customer as little of the goods or services they are buying in exchange for the most money they can extract for supplying the minimum. No longer will companies respect customer service or the customer experience.

Verizon is an excellent example.

Hear that college students? The President just gave you permission to pirate all your textbooks.

He is the most prolific traitor in American history, worse than all other American traitors COMBINED. Any list should START with TRAITOR.

Also, anyone who wants to access government services. Want Medicaid? Work in the fields. Want Social Security? Work in the fields. Want Food Stamps? Work in the fields? Want Medicare? Work in the fields. Etc.

If you already have a couple of jobs, send your children to the fields. It’s not like they’re getting a useful education anyway. Most of it will be MAGA propaganda about how much better it is for kids to work in the fields instead of the classroom, because it keeps the evil foreigners out of our country.

I was a 12 year account with nearly one million Karma, when I was permabanned in the post-Inauguration purge, for a comment I had made numerous times without an issue.

We were the people that built Reddit. When I started, nobody had heard of it. When I was “fired,” it was one of the biggest websites in the world. It had become a cesspool of puns, trolls, bots, MAGA dickheads, Russian Propaganda Farmers, novelty accounts, and worse. It was already difficult to navigate to actual comments on some subs. Now that they have permabanned so many highly active active accounts, the problems has worsened significantly.

Lemmy is great, and I can speak more openly, although the mods are a little free with the removal tools. I miss some of the niche subs, like the guitar subs. The guitar community on Reddit is great, and very supportive of players. I wish Lemmy had that.

Sounds a bit like Severance.

I was referring to the castle metaphorically, as if it were any large purchase by a Sociopathic Oligarch. Substitute mansion or yacht for castle.

And we should tax all forms of revenues for the wealthy, including income, investment, capital gains, inheritance, etc.

And we should tax the shit out of churches.

This post is highlighting the tax rates of European countries, which are them supposed to be compared with the extremely low AMERICAN tax rates.

Every time I see him in public, all I can think of is how I’m so hoping to see his head explode from a sniper’s bullet. I don’t think that could be described as Pride.

No, but that work should be generating profit, and almost every employee should share in a higher percentage of those profits. Those at the top just make sure the profit increases, they don’t actually earn it, yet they get the far higher share. It’s the workers who actually create the profit, and they should be compensated with a much higher percentage of those profits.

Of course, that means lower profits for the company, but if employees are getting fairly compensated, then they will have more buying power, and corporations will make up the difference in lower profit margins with increased sales volume from workers with expendable income.
