i dont think jesus would approve of the low starting wages i mean. he wouldnt approve of the inequality - the greed at the top. do the workers get harassed for sick days? it wouldnt approve of that.

The harassment is the fun part.

jesus wouldnt approve of 2 weeks paid vacation meanwhile how much vacation are the executives getting

Less than the hourly.

I feel like such a situation may be directly referenced in the Bible.

And you’re 100% wrong on where Jesus stood on the issue.

american CEOs used to make i dont know 10x the lowest paid worker in the 1970s i believe. then it got satanic.

capitalism incentivizes wage theft and its widespread. jesus would care about the a/c and he was a cry baby. being a cry baby is a good thing - the squeaky wheels gets the grease.

Socialism is equal misery. capitalism is imperfect because human beings, but it’s still better than socialism
And since you have no idea who Jesus is or what he stood for will just ignore your silly analogy..

You should stop using that word unless you can define it.

You don’t get to co opt the vocabulary.

It’s greed. In your scenario, you’re still greedy because your only measurement is how much money you got. Which makes you exactly what you say you hate. I do not envy CEOs or their money because I know what you have to do to get that and I don’t have any desire.

greed is more than what you need or deserve. those workers deserve more because starting wage is low. the CEO deserves less because its obviously too much.

Everything you stated is a personal opinion, as well as you gave no hard numbers because that’s what leftist do. They light a fire, create a problem that has no solution and then run away.
Thankfully, there’s adults in this room. we are actually the ones pushing forward, wages, benefits, and working conditions for working people unlike yourself. Grow up.

workers call in sick and the employer gives them a hard time about it and tries to get them in trouble. sounds like harassment to me.

I don’t think it is obvious.

You’ve decided that your definitions are the ones that matter.

“Need” and “Deserve” are very complicated words.

This from a deadbeat in Canada…..

Everything you stated is a personal opinion, as well as you gave no hard numbers because that’s what left to do. They light a fire, create a problem that has no solution and then run away.

the communists were likely very much responsible for organizing unions in america since you had peak communist membership rate the same time you had peak union membership rate last 100 years. they also were partly responsible for preventing fascism.

I’m talking about the definition of Satanic.

well if theyre low paid they need it. and i think they deserve it too bc of hte way the pay scale goes up after a few years.

I disagree.

I don’t think that matches the definition of “need”.

Who cares? We have a grievance procedure for that too.
