That just means we need more opossums, and I fail to see the downside
Slave labor?
For all we know it could be the exact same thing the US does with our prisoner work programs.
So if we’re going to call out China, can we please stop doing it here too?
That said, I really liked the opportunity to not have to socialize with someone
I think the point is, they are living paycheck to paycheck unless they choose to decrease the quality of living.
On one hand we can say these people are way better off than they deserve and laugh at their stupidity.
On the other hand, that’s not a great sign for the economy. The “every day” kind of rich person isn’t even that rich anymore. And lowering the ceiling pushes you into the floor.

Age limits are something we should talk about in general, but using that as the reason to discount only one candidate is asinine
Temporary solution
My problem with these comments is that while it’s rational, it’s also just speculation. We have no actual idea beyond best guesses around found artifacts.
Wow you’re exactly right. Why don’t they just take what’s broken and fix it
That’s because there’s a racial component
New yeller
They’re just trying to survive. We’ve already made it impossible for them to enjoy life
Is there a term for this?
I really see this fucking our economy
I say let it happen. If someone is dumb enough to fire all their workers… They deserve what will happen next
