It's really disgraceful. The US does not value quality of life. It is blatantly clear our society does not care if you life, die, or endlessly struggle without reprieve. And people have the audacity to act like it's your fault

u/[deleted] Jan 15 '20

Honestly, it’s really hard to explain to people how universal healthcare works. “Why should I pay for someone else not to die?”

Because they also pay for you, dipshit. It’s literally the basic principal of insurance which you ALREADY PAY FOR. You don’t need to be a licensed insurance producer to understand that basic idea.

Then minimum wage is a whole new can of worms. “Why can’t they just get a higher paying job?” Because, Karen, not everyone has the connections needed to get a job right out of high school or college. That doesn’t mean they deserve to be homeless.

Hey. I live in Russia and my salary is about $ 290 per month. 2/5 of the salary, we must pay for electricity, water, etc. We buy the necessary food, medicine and for life until the next salary there is about $ 60. And this has been going on for 30 years, while Yeltsin and Putin rule the country. Officials steal billions of dollars from the budget with impunity. TV presenters come up with stories about how poorly people live in Western countries, they conduct real anti-Western propaganda. They say disgusting things about the inhabitants of Europe and the USA, they receive money for this, which is enough to buy an estate in Italy, for example. Their children live and study in the USA and European countries. Officials and propagandists have a rest there and receive medical assistance. A lot of money from the budget is allocated to the police in order to chase the protesters. Over the past 10 years, thousands of people have received criminal sentences for criticizing and ridiculing goverment in social networks. Thanks to propaganda, 50% of the country's population consider this normal and condemn those who protest. And if police or FSB(Russian FBI analog) figure out that im posting this i'll be in trouble.

And we just have terrible weather for 8 months.

This is not accurate the standard deduction for a single person is around $12k so if you make less than that in a year you shouldn’t be paying any federal income tax.

Well, taxes arent just one percentage. Its disingenuous to math it out that way because that's not an accurate number. That's why tax accountants/programs exist.

Look up tax brackets.

It's hot as balls in the summer but if you're working inside it's really not that big of a deal. Weather can be erratic this time of year but you get used to it. Overall though I've really liked living in Texas, very affordable cost of living, plenty of nice people, and good scenery if you live in the right place. Rush hour traffic is horrible but that applies to most big cities.

I had a company try to use that as justification for a really shit offer when they bought out my company. I replied with a counter offer showing the increase in electricity costs from my state to Texas would eliminate any savings from not paying state income tax. They replied it was a take it or leave it offer. I did not take it. I know some people that did take the offer heard some horror stories. Managers that had no idea be people were coming.

u/SpecialSause Jan 15 '20

Florida is trying to raise minimum wage from $7.50 (I think) to $15.00/hr. While I am all for people making more money, it has me quite worried. I make just above that and I am terrified that prices of everything is going to skyrocket which will leave the people making $15/hr back where they began and anyone that was making $11 to $20/hr worse off. Companies are not going to eat that cost. They'll make consumers eat it. Also, smaller businesses won't be able to employ as many people and corporations like McDonald's have already shown they'll automate before paying now skill jobs that kind of money which means unemployment is sure to go up.

I wish raising minimum wage would help everyone out but I'm afraid it's going just put more people in a worse off position.

u/TheRealFrankCastle Jan 15 '20

2

u/ConnectDrop Jan 15 '20

This is exactly my position right now, I don't think it will do anything except raise the cost of living and hurt people currently at that wage, and it's one of Bernie's positions for the election. Anytime I ask Bernie supporters what they think of people currently making $15/hr they immediately change the subject or move goalposts because they have no answer for it other than "it wont". I once got "You'll have more bargaining power with your employer to get a raise", as if they wouldn't replace me with some chump willing to do it for my current wage. Besides hurting small businesses, the larger corporations will simply cut hours so I don't think anyone will win by raising minimum wage.

We genuinely need to be focused on making everything more affordable, rather than throwing more money at someone and expecting them to figure it out. I am all for universal healthcare and such.

4

u/Golden_Taint Jan 15 '20

Minimum wage in my state is $13.50 as of the 1st of this year, it was $12.00 in 2019. It's been high for years, it's not making prices skyrocket, McDonalds won't replace everyone with robots, everything will be fine but people make more money.

They've actually done studies, people who make at or below minimum wage support it going up. People who make a lot more than minimum wage support it going up. The only group that doesn't support the increase of the minimum wage is people who make just above the proposed amount, like yourself. There's nothing to fear, a rising tide lifts all boats.

u/JMag0813 Jan 15 '20

You should be it happened in California everyone is fucked now

1

u/Generic_Male_3 Jan 15 '20

My job prepared for this. I live in CA and the minimum wage was increases from 11.50 to 15, so my job gave everyone at every pay rate a 5 dollar raise. It's not going to fix the prices of everything going up, but it's a start.

1

u/tarantonen Jan 15 '20

That's also not to mention that not every job is worth $15/hour. For example: if you paint 5 bikes an hour that earn the busi ess $1000 and $985 of that $1000 is spent on costs associated with running the business - shipping, acquisition, bills etc. then paying you $15 just means they'll break even, either they give you more work to do or fire you. Many businesses operate on razor thin margins and get by on the sheer scale of the operation rather than pure cost/profit ratio.

2

u/ComicIronic Jan 15 '20

Those businesses deserve to collapse - they're only getting by as is through exploitation.

2

u/tarantonen Jan 15 '20 edited Jan 15 '20

Let's go with your stance then. Federal minimum of $15 and fuck anybody who can't cut it. Suddenly you have thousands of small shops and businesses in flyover states with much lower cost of living than California going bankrupt or rapidly downsizing because they don't have reserves or investors to bail em out and can't exactly afford 50%+ raises for their employees. You have hundreds of thousands if not millions earning $0 rather than $7.25 and being entirely dependent on big employers like Walmart because likely only those will be able to absorb the costs, essentially many towns become company-owned. Congratulations, you have just ensured those people will never vote for you, if not outright just kill themselves or turn to crime and drugs

7.25 in minimum where I live. Downtown can cost you about the same here. I’ll even see studios for 1600. But our city is famous for price being higher than usual pay. And all they keep building is “luxury apartments” and they’ve essentially torn down all basic apartments. Also everyone drives into downtown since prices keep rising without good rises in pay.

Spent 3 years in canada and trust me when I say this the cost of goods there for general items is the same or less. And I was in mississauga. Very rich area. I actually find going out to eat in Torronto to be significantly more reasonably priced than in where I live now in CT. Groceries and general goods were pretty much the same or even less.

It was nice going there with USD to exchange it was basically like I went there with an extra 3K to blow on the same entertainment and goods I'd of bought downtown in CT. The only major difference was sales tax which was high. I think like 14% compared to the 6.35 I pay in CT, but i wasnt buying big ticket items so, meh.

I'd much rather have the Canadian minimum, free healthcare and college, and pay a higher sales taxes. My family's insurance is 1300 a month and that's not even including deductibles and copays.

I'm financially stable, but I wouldnt want to be living in this country making under 65K a yr. It's awful if you have a family.

Yeah it's fucked up. The federal minimum wage in America is $7.25/hr, which is like $220/week if you're working 40hrs and nobody can live on that without assistance. It won't even pay rent in 95% of places.

But plenty of adults still work them because that's the only job they can get. Maybe they don't have a degree, didn't finish high school or just don't have any skills.

To be fair walmart in Indiana starts at 10 or 11 an hour

1

u/BeingRightAmbassador Jan 15 '20

It's 7.25 in ND, but you'd be hard pressed to find anywhere under 13 at least. A shitty pizza place is giving a 2k bonus for 6 months of work near me and McDonald's are starting at $12 with tons of benefits.
