Blacktoll posted:Arb C, hold on. We gave a guy who thinks he's slick as hell staying at home with mom and dad at thirty. On an individual level there is some merit to "improve yourself to move up" advice, on a broad level it's impossible for everyone to do that. I consider myself incredibly lucky to have gotten where I am from where I was born, if you don't feel the same way you're either naive or arrogant. There simply isn't room in society for everyone to be doctors and engineers.

ArbitraryC posted:look Im not gonna get into the value of roughin it on your own as it was so thoroughly drilled into me I did it before it was realistically a good idea, this is mostly a cultural thing and plenty of people don't see any problem with the idea of living at home until you're literally making the next gen of your family. My broader point was that anyone who honestly thinks work ethic is all it takes to be successful in modern society is straight up retarded because even if literally everyone had infinite work ethic we'd still have an economy that depended on lopsided amount of lower classes to fuel a narrow amount of upper classes, it's how our society is designed and it's literally inevitable regardless of everyone's training. I hope to slack long enough to live in a world taken care of by machines. The Roomba was the beginning.

You might be dicking around with the idea of giving everyone in your country free money, but you fuckers rode in OUR spaceshuttles! "CANADA LANDS ON MARS!!" Says no newspaper in the any future timeline ever! Canadians I swear, you know what either just shut the gently caress up on the world stage or....no, you know what? Just shut the gently caress up! Anytime I see some loving Canadian hop in like "US TOO!" I immediately want to smack my monitor.

The White Dragon posted:yeah dude i'm just making this up, it's not like this actually happened so much last year that activist groups had to intervene on behalf of renters in, well, oakland against predatory landlords who were illegally responding to the hipster price spike and trying to raise the rates on tenants who were too poor/uneducated to defend their renter's rights Wow that's hosed, I rented when I was a student and our landlord was only allowed to raise our rent once a year, which they did by like $25/mth each year StarMinstrel posted:Man, the arguments in this thread makes me so happy that Canada is moving toward Basic income. Long live Canada's superior wealth distribution despite ten years of dark age conservatism. I'll believe it when I see it. We have a better chance of getting a new voting system that will disproportionately benefit the current Liberal government than Mincome, and even that's already seeing some hiccups in getting implemented before the next election Professor Shark fucked around with this message at 10:29 on May 31, 2016 |

SHISHKABOB posted:I think the point is people lived there before it became ~the Bay Area~ and they're getting hosed I worked ~40 a week for federal minimum wage in fast food for about 5 years with the occasional .05 pay bump or whatever and I never cleared 12k a year. $450 ish a paycheck was what I got at the back end, pretty much $400 when I started. No vacation, no paid breaks, no sick days, no free food, nothin. Rent was $650 split between me and two roomies who did kitchen work, plus Internet and we pretty much shared my cell phone. There were still some months where I had to ask my parents for help with the rent, especially if any of us had been sick for multiple days (like flu or a broken arm, fukkin skaters) because you usually couldn't make up the hours. I was the only one that could consistently get 40 a week. Sometimes one of my roomies would get 15 hours scheduled because they annoyed the boss. We all eventually became alcoholics to deal with our hellish subsistence living. You just buy the cheapest booze you can ( $5 for a 5th!) and let that eat into the food gas and entertainment budget. Going to work drunk made my life tolerable for the first time in years. E: utilities and trash and whatever else the gently caress we had to pay for at that shithole was all part of the monthly gently caress parade. This was in Missouri. College town though.

"Professor Shark" posted:
I'm not sure about that. In Quebec, our left and the right wants it, unlike the voting issue. the left wants it to help the poor, and our center right government wants it to cut costs in bureaucracy. I remember reading it would be a net gain overall for the province. Also lol at that poster that got mad for living in a country where the government cares more about shooting brown people overseas than their own citizens.

You can't argue cultural shame and American independence. You're supposed to hate your family and move at least three states away. If grandpappy and pappy had to kill themselves to feed five kids so do you, why don't you have kids yet? When are you going to grow up? Don't forget sacrificing in quiet dignity. That gives old uncle Sam the biggest wood.

My generation, “the Baby Boomers,” has seen the massive collapse of the moral and civil fiber of America. Our children and grandchildren have been born into it and so consider it the norm. It was not always so. My generation was secure in the knowledge that we had the right to EARN our way. We did not have the government dictating everything we must do, not did we expect them to provide for our every need or want like the present welfare society does. We were not taught that we were victims of society. We believed that our country was the greatest the world had ever seen. We paid out taxes and took our voting privilege seriously. We were patriotic and considered it our responsibility and honor to serve in our Armed Forces (except for a few Vietnam era draft dodgers). How things have changed: The majority of our top political leaders are utterly corrupt. In the last several years they have become so ambivalent that our enemies no longer respect us, and our allies do not trust us. Our armed forces, the greatest military force in history has been decimated — not from without, but from within. The present administration has done everything in it’s power to turn us into a dependent welfare state. Criminal’s rights have become more important than the rights of the victims. Minority “rights” have become much more important than those of the majority. Every kind of perversion has become acceptable and encouraged. Any moral or religious belief against perversion is called bigotry. Now the president has directed that all public school restrooms and locker rooms be made available to “transgender” students. This is a recipe for disaster. Any male can go in the girl’s restroom or locker room under the pretense that he “feels like” he might have a female nature and ogle the girls in various stages of undress. What a setup for sexual assault. I doubt that Obama would allow his own daughters to be exposed to this possibility, yet he is mandating that ours will be. Enough is enough. Eleven states have filed a lawsuit against Obama’s illegal mandate, and even though Idaho has not joined them yet, our governor supports and encourages them. I call upon all school officials and citizens to refuse to implement this unlawful mandate by a lame duck president. This is the time for peaceful, but determined resistance, such as practiced by Martin Luther King and Mahatma Gandhi. It’s called civil disobedience. It’s what outraged, long-suffering, but courageous people do. I know that my generation has the guts to do this, but what about you Millennials? Can you step up to the plate and do your duty? Who’s going to prosecute you? “They” don’t have the guts or the means to do so. Let us unite across political and ideological lines to defeat this abominable threat to our children and grandchildren.
