The thing is that they are only offering this “benefit” because it’s the bare minimum to keep workers on the floor. It’s long term horrible for the employees, but short term they can sustain life enough to show up for work. If they resorted to payday lenders or government help, it would be harder on Walmart, and that's…

Wow this article is bringing out some really ugly comments I don't normally see on Jez...

I don’t know if we’re at a tipping point, but I do know that ubi is better than a job guarantee. I’m a Bernie fan but Yang is right on this. We should be working less hours and enjoying our humanity and precious time on this Earth. 

Oh man the California in me recoils at this.

Why are all the Chad's in the thread so stereotypically Chad I love it

My husband has a mild cat allergy and had to suffer the first year we were dating until he acclimated to my cat. If he couldn’t live with my cat, we weren’t going to work out. My cat was in my life first and my responsibility to care for, though now I feel very lucky he was physically capable of being in my life.

Lol it's so obvious you've never lived in calli

Lol sorry you suck but that isn’t a good reason for a killing spree. Cool motive still murder.

Eh, this is like saying if I say I want to sleep with a guy once but change my mind, I can’t complain if he tries to rape me.

If their radical policies stay the course, they will wipe out the Palestinians the same way we did the native Americans. If genocide is the price to exist, its too high.

Lol my first thought reading this: “What are the implications that I call my cat that am I raising a rapist omg??”

Oof, okay. It’s not boasting, it’s gallows humor. People get duped into dating horrible people because love is notoriously good at fucking with your judgement. Afterwards when you’ve appropriately detached, it’s so absurd people often laugh about it. It’s not meant to reflect anything good or bad, it’s just sharing a…

Give 'em the cold shoulder the way you would any racist.

Wow. You’re really taking the “context doesn’t matter" side?

Hitler gave speeches, ergo high school debate clubs are the same as Nazis.

Wow. 

I’m a physicist, and I think NDT’s attitude here isn’t helping. The same with Bill Nye. I like Bill, but their style of outreach just talks down to and alienates people who aren’t already interested in science.

Omg deacon 😂😂😂

Wow that is quite the combination of wishful thinking and really reaching. A maintenance record that disagrees with sworn-in testimony doesn’t equal purjery... It indicates that one of the two pieces of evidence are wrong.

That’s not what I’m saying. I’m saying keeping it a crime serves no purpose other than as an excuse to be brutal. If we had no history of that, sure keep it a crime. But we’ve already shown we have issues there, AND going after employers aggressively is enough to basically eliminate immigration (not that I want that,…
