@FiftyFiftyOne Shame the Californicators want civil war.
Are you a bot, or just an idiot?
@NocturnalMorning I'm someone who understands nothing is free. Something lost on libtards.
What is that even supposed to mean? How does ICE raiding neighborhoods in full riot gear have anything to do with things being "free"? Don't answer that, bcz i dont care what you have to say. You're post history shows your opinions are insufferable. Maybe just stick to the Linux subs, where you can be insufferable and nobody cares.
@NocturnalMorning It means people coming from other countries illegally and getting free stuff here, in Seattle luxury hotels, cars, and drivers licenses so they can vote, and unfortunately drive, isn't free, it's paid for by the legitimate citizens who worked for that money and now have to go without things.
Please research the actual economic impacts of illegal immigration before speaking on the matter. Your fellow users will thank you.
Telling this chud to research. Comedic gold.
@Feathercrown I live within 13 miles of a sanctuary city, I've seen the economic impacts first hand, no jobs, cities land values falling by 50%, tent cities everywhere, human shit on the sidewalks everywhere, fentynal overdoses everywhere. About the only thing that has benefited economically is that we can get cheep street drugs.
I wish property values dropped by 50%! I would actually buy a house back there.
Having lived in multiple sanctuary cities I'm comfortable saying every single point you're attempting to make is the kind of pure bullshit one would only believe if their only source is Twitter or broadcast news.
People not having kids isn't because someone else came and took a minimum wage or less job, the drug trade, or shit on the sidewalk. It's because there aren't jobs that are widely accessible with pay commensurate with cost of living.
Don't be mad at immigrants for being exploited, be mad at the people exploiting them and the government which refuses to enforce cost of living wage or other social services such as, for example, healthcare and high quality public transit.
The job pays too low across the board. Blame the bosses and the politicians enabling low wages, not the exploited laborers.
Step 1: "I can't pay you this much because [others] will do the work cheaper"
Step 2: "I'm going to higher you at a lower wage than you could expect before step 1. Please grovel at my feet for my benevolent charity"
"Basic economics" as an argument is ignorance of externalities.
You know we have wage regulation right? If you must use the law to enforce the "free" market then you could just as easily increase the already existing minimum wage.
If you don't believe in a cost of living based minimum wage that's a different conversation.
Yes, all closed down.
TF you mean? What fast food restaurants make up your majority? 🤣🤣🤣
Like I said, dont bother.
I was bored and their arguments are feckless.
So an idiot. And apparently proudly so.
ETA: blocking your dipshit takes. I've lost too many braincells from reading your tripe already.
