I dunno if you are from Cali, but a lot Gavin Newsom's platform sounds solid. He wants to focus on Education across all age groups, Job growth, Small Business growth in lower class communities and Infrastructure. He might be full of shyt in the end but he's saying the right things.

I'm from here and I like a lot of shyt he's been saying. Then again he might just be another elitist liar. But for now, he has a solid platform that isn't too "liberal" (meaning Sanders level "FREE MONEY!" wishful thinking and idiocy) but he has an issue with coasting right now on some Hillary 2016 type of shyt.

A lot of people feel he's a shoe-in and because of that, his campaigning is lacking, especially here in SoCal. He needs more people. His face needs to be everywhere in every corner of the state especially in central and southern Cal where his only claim to fame is being the former Lt. Gov to the lunatic Jerry Brown. But this is really a conversation for another day.


Ironically, people who earn low wages makeup a huge chunk of their consumer base. :francis:

If minimum wage jobs keep disappearing it will hurt their business in the long run:mjlol:

This is a point that continually gets overlooked and I don't understand it. Even if the laymen doesn't understand economics on this level, I know damn well the goons at the top do, so why are they so hellbent on eviscerating jobs for the poor when it's their main consumer base? Rich folks aren't regularly chowing down on McDonald's (unless they're DJT anyway) so wtf is going on?

If y'all didn't know... Fight For 15 is/was a movement spurred by the Black Youth Project, which created the Agenda To Build Black Futures. One of their goals is/was to create positive work outcomes for Black young folks. Here is a link: Agenda to Build Black Futures | Solutions

So when you hear people complaining against the concept of Fight For 15, they are often people using it as a dogwhistle to complain against Black youth that demand a fair wage. They also used the hashtag #BlackWorkMatters. Here is a related PDF dedicated solely to restorative justice in the workplace for Black people: http://agendatobuildblackfutures.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/black_workers_matter.pdf

Folks love to talk that shyt about how these low skill jobs were NEVER meant to pay a reasonable or livable wage but how the fukk is that when just a few decades ago, people worked these jobs and were able to support whole families or pay their way through college? Sometimes doing both at the same time......

If your bullshyt reasoning against a fair min wage is that these jobs were "never supposed to be careers" and therefore SHOULDN'T pay higher wages then it definitely all falls apart when you look at the things people working these jobs were at one time able to do as opposed to now. People working at McDonald's (and many other fast food joints, or in retail, etc) were once able to afford a modestly sized apartment AND utilities along with an ability to feed themselves and have a small bit of cash leftover.

We’re really talking about anarchy because of MCDONALDS automated cashiers...

In California, the only people working those jobs are literally illegal immigrants....

I literally ordered Taco Bell from a mentally handicapped person a month ago.

America needs to get the fukk out of Latin America first off

and they do need to in fact pay their workers more.
Neither of those will happen.... I just ordered Taco Bell from a retarded person or mentally handicapped, last month. Former Criminals, mentally handicapped, and illegal immigrants don’t really get the representation as relates to “wages”. They’re just happy to have a job.

:pachaha:straight anarchy on the way. Gonna be scary in the very near future. I feel bad for the youth. Technology, greed, and a global economy are gonna wreak havoc on the middle and working class. People see the future too which is partly how Trump got in. It wasn't all race baiting. Some of that sh!t is economic. I wouldn't be surprised to see some form of American Exodus in the future for those capable of such.

People said this when industrialisation took over from agriculture ...

Nothing new about these arguments ... Future generations will adapt just like we did
and just like the generations before us

They use everify at fast food locations... They have to be legal residents (born here, naturalized, or with a tax ID MAYBE).

CLASSIC MAN VS MACHINE .. AND MACHINES ARE GAINING GROUND FASTER THAN EVER

REMEMBER WHEN U NEEDED A BAND TO MAKE MUSIC?

AND HOW MUCH MORE AUTHENTIC THE MUSIC SOUNDED....TECHNOLOGY MAKES HUMANS LAZY, INTERACT LESS, RARELY GO OUT, ETC .. MACHINES ARE KILLING THE HUMAN ELEMENT TO LIFE.

TECHNOLOGY WILL EVENTUALLY MAKE HUMANS OBSOLETE. WE ARE DEVOLVING.

This has been happened in other countries though. For a real long time now too. Every time I’m in Europe, chances are if I go to mcDs, I’m gonna order from a kiosk, but pick up my order from a human. People talk like this is news or a surprise. Doesn’t mean their wages should stay low, just because you’ve got computers doing it either...
