When you’re the biggest shop in your town it’s because you do good work.

When you’re the biggest shop in the world it’s because you’re scamming your clients.

That’s the system we have right now and it doesn’t work. Soooo…

This is like you breaking up with a toxic girlfriend and she tells you “oh yeah well other people are still gonna date me idiot!”

The point is that if max pay gap laws are passed, CEOs will just hide their actual pay in external resources and normal employees will still make exactly the same.

You’d be an idiot not to. That was the very first thing I thought of.

I’m not limiting this to work.

And of course you can have a relationship with someone remotely.

But overall, for the average person, in-person relationships are going to be stronger. Friends, family, romantic relationships, hobbies, work, you name it.

I think that any study you find over the past 30 years will show that while online relationships can be meaningful in some cases, the average person will not form as strong a connection as they would in person.

Really? Have you been on the internet?

Politics only mimics what the people are already interested in. And social media made the people interested in hating eachother. Until that changes politics won’t change.

Because the #1 reason why employees will stay at a job that underpays them is because they like the people they work with. And you can’t form those bonds remotely.

The psychological ramifications of that are immense. It would destroy people. It would be no different than any other drug.

When did we stop collapsing

Sure but thats not what we’re talking about

Bro people marched on the capitol for trump wtf are you talking about.

You’re acting like he is a normal human being bothered by the same things a normal human being is.

Honestly it’s just as easy as the media deciding they want us all to be friends again.

That’s legit all it takes.

If left and right wing media outlets would just start an initiative to bring the country together, everyone would fall in line. People only think what they are told to think.

The issue is that these corporations want money, and happiness doesn’t make money.

Politics in America is basically just like everything else. It’s just a brand people adhere to regardless of who works there. It’s the fast food of government.

If you like McDonalds better than Burger King, that’s where you’re gonna go. You don’t care who the manager of the McDonalds is. It doesn’t impact your decision.

That’s American politics now.

That’s totally true as well.

Would it have anything to do with police officers having training and tools that are specifically used to avoid injury and death?

It would be like saying swimming in a kiddie pool is more dangerous than scuba diving, because every year 400 kids drown in their backyard and only 80 scuba divers die per year.

Obviously scuba diving is more dangerous on paper, but those who partake in that activity have equipment and training specifically to not die.
