FWIW, it’s not easy for a customer to spot that you’ve raised prices, especially if you’re a fancy restaurant.

Bingo. This EXACTLY gives lie to the entire premise of “trickle-down economics”. Umm, no. Those rich folks aren’t going to rain their largesse on us little people if they get those tax cuts. I can’t believe that this lie still persists to this day, despite all the evidence to the contrary.
OR they could consider that becoming a billionaire on the backs of people that can’t afford to eat in their restaurant is a soulless enterprise and take the hit of their increased but still not sufficient wages without raising their already preposterous prices.
And why would an owner whine publicly on the receipt before the guest has a chance to tip his own employee better? Just shut the fuck up and be grateful no one notices happy hour prices going up 15 cents across the board to cover that rising tide, lifting all them boats. Stupid jerk.
I can’t believe people are this fucking stupid. Raising minimum wage will make everyone more money. If people have extra money, they will spend it on stuff. All that money spent on stuff gets transferred back to the rich assholes that begrudgingly provide those wages to their employees.
Can we just legalize weed already so that cops can no longer use the faint whiff of it as justification for murder (Philando Castile) and sexual assault?
The bill and melinda gates foundation is quite possibly the best and most far reaching charity in the world. They do a shit ton more for MILLIONS of people than you do pontificating from your fucking kinja. FUCK YOUUUUUU
You answered your own question.
I’m so fucking sick of this country’s mantra that the more money you make, the greater your contribution to society. Jeff fuckking bezos is a glorified book store owner. and fuck Elon Musk and the whole lot of them. Also, Bill Gates is an expert on computer software; what the fucking fuck does that bot know about…
Fuck these CEOs and fuck coporate America. They all lined up to kiss the lunatic’s ring for a chance to directly lobby him, in cynical bid to increase their profit margins under the guise of creating jobs. They never cared about the working class, they just wanted access to the deranged emperor.
Would now be a good time to show off how cute my cat is? It would? Well okay then.
She does. I just ran to the Root before my head exploded. Thank Meghan.

I guess Natalia Lafourcade is fine:
Regresa Ya is giving me life right now - this is like the mariachi music I grew up listening to, but it feels so much more modern, with the raw emotion of women’s voices elevating it for today. Thank you for sharing this!
The rules for quarantine and bringing animals in and out of a country are there for very good reasons. Especially in a place like Australia that is geographically isolated. You can’t break them because you’re rich and want your dogs with you.
Agreed.
Glue them to the protest sign.
Oh yeah, we’ve also heard it in the form of— “When you reject a creep who’s hitting on you in a bar, why can’t you just do it NICELY??”
