@OrevaZSN Minimum wage was designed for high schoolers and social security recipients. But as a lot are about to find out, the real minimum wage is zero…

The minimum wage is meant to be the lowest wage you can live on and afford housing. So, for everyone saying "it's not meant to be that," yes, it is. That's why it's called the minimum wage.

Seattle has highest concentration of college degrees… and this is the mayor they chose. Proof a college degree doesn’t equal intelligence. Katie Wilson, communist 43-year-old, still receives an allowance from her parents to pay for childcare (her husband chooses not to work).

@RoKhanna Why stop at $25, if raising the minimum wage has no negative consequences then just raise it to $1000 and hour and we can all be rich and call it a day

I co-introduced historic legislation to increase the minimum wage to $25. As someone who taught economics at Stanford, here is why it makes sense. The real minimum wage was $14 in 1968. Today it is half, but productivity has increased 2.5x. Instead of extractive capitalism, we need a free enterprise system that pays workers what they are worth.

This law is a long time in the making. A shout out to everyone who worked with me to make it possible. It brings more affordable energy online and increases jobs and investments in VA by streamlining permitting and ensuring we have high quality projects. canarymedia.com/articles/solar…

Every new car in the U.S. will be required by law to have tech that puts constant surveillance on the driver by 2027. AI in your car will determine if you're sober and fit to drive, automatically turning off the vehicle if it determines you're a danger on the road.

@KenGardner11 @James_West_PhD We keep all our cars 10-15 years and no problem. Just don’t be an idiot and go buy a new one every time to finishing paying off your current car.

@James_West_PhD There are two problems. One, the interest rate for most people (not you). Two, the car itself depreciates almost immediately so that you are under water from the beginning of the loan.

@JamesWalkinshaw The job of the Supreme Court is to apply the law correctly, it’s never been to uphold the will of the people. The fact a congressman would think otherwise is frankly embarrassing….

Virginia voters had their say on Trump’s push to rig maps ahead of the midterm elections. They rejected it decisively. For the Virginia Supreme Court to overturn the will of the voters would be shocking.

@ec_carnage I feel like I’m the outlier but I’d much rather have an elite route runner over a big body who can run. If you had all 3 of those traits they wouldn’t be available in round 3 anyways.

@AcePapers96261 @xwanyex 100%, I’m fully remote now. Before when I was hybrid I would have someone come by my office to talk BS for at least 30-60 minutes every day. Yet somehow taking 5 minutes to flip over the dishwasher walk my dog around the block is a crime against humanity.

@xwanyex I really think it depends. Lots of people who go into the office just gossip and bicker and chat and fuck around. They bother those of us who actually have work to be doing and prevent us from doing said work.

I’ll never stop taking victory laps about this. From the second remote work became a hot topic in 2020 I have been consistent on the view that it is impossible to believe that human beings are more productive at home.
Aleph@woke8yearold

Remote work probably is a real drag on productivity if so many companies are serious about making people return to office. If it cost nothing they’d be happy to offer it as a perk and reduce overhead. Obviously it’s awesome for workers

@DelJessAnderson Fun fact, these issues tend to arise when you don’t follow the law. Also nobody under the age of 40 believes this after 2000.
