You call that logic?

Peer pressure? The kid was by himself. What other lame as excuses do you have, that one isn't working for me.

So folks like to go down with the ship!

Was hardly random, you idiot.

I think you are on to something here.. I feel like the alienation of technology and the self selected echo chamber of hate are really big here, that and no anchor of real life connections to tie these kids to their community.

That's why I love the $15 min wage campaign. It just shows what is obvious to anyone paying attention that capitalism doesn't work for most people, but for the few who do it works very well and they hold all the power.

When I first read that, my brain omitted a word.

I prefer the death spiral where consumers get saddled with debt attempting to keep up the standard of living while everyone pretends that a lot of money in existence is phantom and will never be paid is no big deal. We all get to lie to ourselves and everyone loses (except the rich).

Didn't you read all the other people saying this will never happen (as it is happening in all industries everywhere).

Except we live in a global market. you are right though, which is why the .99 menu at Wendy's still exists. Just because the poors literally can't pay more, but I do here fast food is expanding over seas.

It already exists but society insists you bow to your corporate overlords.

Skype works great and MIT released a study that estimated 50% of labor jobs being automated in the next 20 years.

That's not necessarily true. You are assuming that every smart person ends up in a high paying job but that is not even close to the case, secondly we are talking about body image issues.

Don't forget those skinny "nerds".

You are going to have to get your fill of haterade elsewhere. More reasonable people than yourself are in charge of prosecutions, thank God. Besides, they are white and affluent. You really think they will be charged?
