In terms of this whole Uber/Lyft minimum wage debacle – I’m not a libertarian or a communist, so I don’t feel the need to take any position that’s ideological.
In fact, I believe ideology itself is a complete scam, invented by the Jews, and that anyone who talks about ideology is trying to Jew you over.
I guess what I would say is that logically, Uber/Lyft drivers are doing what they’re doing because they choose to do it, and the reason they choose to do it is because we have a system that takes the worst parts of communism and the worst parts of libertarianism and combines them to screw people over.
Obviously, at this point, communists saying you should force Uber/Lyft to pay more – which is effectively a tax – is screwing over the drivers a lot more than it is screwing over the company, and the issue is a much bigger one that needs to be addressed on the federal level.
In fact, we need to have a very serious public discussion about what globalism – exporting jobs and importing genetic waste – is doing to our country’s working class.
Alternatively, you could just be a fat, gross weirdo and sing a whiny song about how poor you are.
Frankly, I have more important issues to think about than the problems of poor people, immigrants, and multinational corporations – none of those groups has ever done anything for me, and I really don’t care what happens to them.
My personal mission is related to revenge, and to having something to say to Saint Peter when I die. I don’t really care about anything that is unrelated to either of those missions*.
So if you’re not talking about the Jews, I don’t really care what you’re talking about. Honestly, it’s all just noise to me at this point.
CNN:
Lyft and Uber threatened to stop doing business in Minneapolis after the city council adopted a new rule Thursday that would set a minimum wage for rideshare drivers.
In a 7-5 vote, the Minneapolis City Council passed an ordinance that includes a number of rideshare worker protections, including a minimum wage for Uber and Lyft drivers. Mayor Jacob Frey has the opportunity to veto the ordinance and has until next Wednesday, August 23, to do so.
Jacob Frey, huh?
Yeah, well – I’m sure whatever decision he makes, it will be the good and moral one.
The proposed ordinance mandates at least $1.40 per mile and $0.51 per minute within Minneapolis be paid to drivers. Minneapolis is debating the minimum wage as gig workers across the country are advocating for fair wages and job benefits. In recent years, states and cities have attempted to pass legislation regarding the growing “gig economy,” or freelance work through apps like Uber and Grubhub, but have generally met with fierce opposition.
On Tuesday, Lyft sent a letter to the council saying “Should this proposal become law, Lyft will be forced to cease operations in the City of Minneapolis on its effective date of January 1, 2024.”
Lyft, according to a statement sent to CNN Thursday, said the bill would be detrimental to drivers, who would ultimately earn less, “because prices could double and only the most wealthy could still afford a ride.”
The company said the bill had been “jammed through the Council” and urged Frey to veto the bill and instead allow time for the state’s rideshare task force to complete its research.
Uber sent an email to its drivers on Monday, urging them to contact the Mayor and City Council to ask them to oppose the move. Uber said its drivers sent over 700 emails on Thursday, but did not specify what was in those emails.
In its email, Uber said the legislation could “greatly limit” its ability to remove unsafe drivers from the platform and increase the cost of rides.
Haha.
Uber’s response is way more based, like “we’re going to let Pakistanis rape drunk women if you try to tax us.”
“Limit safe drivers,” hahahahaha.
That’s much better than threatening to leave.
If I was Uber’s council, I would be like “if you make us pay money, then we’re going to allow Pakis to rape all these whores – which, by the way, is something they quite evidently deserve.”
*NB4 “JESUS SAID TO TAKE CARE OF THE POOR” – you’re actually gay and retarded. Jesus said “the poor will always be with you” – that’s a quote. The virtue of charity is to make sure people are not starving. The character in Oliver Anthony’s song is not starving, he’s whining because he’s dumb and has to work extra to afford his luxuries. I’m sure he’s getting ripped off a lot worse than a medieval peasant, but he’s also got a lot more bobbles and trinkets than a medieval peasant. I really just don’t care about the “white working class” (i.e., “white poor people”). The poor that Our Lord Jesus Christ was talking about were struggling for food, and the command was to give them food. Basically, that kind of poor doesn’t exist in the world anymore, unless there is a warlord in Somalia refusing to allow people to access UN food drops.
I’ve been to the poorest countries in the world. No one is starving. They live in shacks and so on, but why? Because they’re being oppressed by the fat cats, or because they’re stupid? If I had to guess, it’s probably a 50/50 split, virtually everywhere. I do think the rich are treating poor people unfairly, but the reason they’re able to get away with it is that “poor people” have food and shelter. In America, virtually all of their problems are social. If men had the current level of material wealth, without the problems caused by women, everything would be fine. You could say “women and substance abuse,” but the substance abuse is caused by the behavior of women. If the Western world was still ruled by the CATHOLIC CHURCH, none of these fat, retarded poor people would have any of these problems with their current level of material wealth. The Church would tell their whore wives to shut up and tell the men that they need to watch their calorie intake because GLUTTONY IS A SIN. The poverty of modern man is a spiritual poverty.
But also, obviously, there is a Jewish conspiracy to prevent the middle class from owning their own homes, and to prevent the poor from becoming middle class home-owners. Again, all over the world, including in America, I would say the problems are 50/50. But the 50% you could do without the social problems would make life livable for the “working class,” and anyway, there’s nothing I can do to help these people and it’s not my problem and I really, just if I’m being perfectly frank with you, do not give a shit about peasants whining about how they don’t have enough money.
As for me and songs, I sympathize much more with the song Tom Petty recorded before he was ritually murdered by the Illuminati (via cardiac arrest caused by an enlarged heart caused by decades of habitual cocaine use).
I am the Last DJ, and you people should appreciate it a lot more.
