What energy emergency? I got two words for you that I know you won't understand, "externalizing costs". The US is producing more oil and more natural gas than at anytime during Trump's first administration. Where is the emergency? We are the world's leading exporter of natural gas and second only to Saudi Arabia in oil exports. Again, what is the emergency?

Nope, it is a power grab, by the executive branch, to facilitate that whole externalizing cost thing.

Border emergency. Yep, we got one. NOT ENOUGH immigrants. Currently, there are three workers for every retiree. In 2070, it is going to be two. Imagine the Social Security tax your grandchildren are going to be saddled with, if Social Security is even still around. Ah hell, screw it, let the old people depend on their children, like it used to be. Flippin idiot self-absorbed parasitic Boomers. To get that ratio back to three we need TRIPLE the number of immigrants.

No more DEI. Funny, pretty soon white people are going to be the minority, that DEI thing cuts both ways. It is already happening in the engineering field.

Cartels are terrorist organizations. Big damn whoop. It is reality TV, nothing more, nothing less. Just circus, the question is, what the hell is Trump going to do about it other than pay lip service.
ho
No more birthright citizenship for illegals. But hey, Trump's hotels will still have a booming business of birthright tourists from lily white Europe, Russia mostly. I mean I don't get it. When a country has the power to determine who is, and who is not a citizen, we are on the road to despotism. Sorry to use such a big word.

No more asylum. Seriously? We have treaty obligations in this area. The constitution clearly states that signed treaties are the law of the land. Oh wait, who needs a stinkin Constitution. What was the oath Trump just swore? Nevermind.

No more catch and release. Oh sure, now we just kick them back across the border. Then they will try and try again. Flippin great. Not like border patrol doesn't have enough problems. Same goes for remain in Mexico, they will just try and try again. Foolish.

True. Better border enforcement is necessary. Open the border to hunting and pay a modest bounty.

LMAO, you are a fool. Project 2025 proposes changing overtime rules so that hours are calculated on a four week basis. Work sixty hours one week, twenty hours the next, no overtime. Furthermore, it seeks to strike the exemption cap for salaried workers to less than $30,000 a year, not the current a little shy of $60,000. Manager of a Dollar General, yeah, probably work sixty, seventy hours a week, for five hundred bucks a week.

Is that why you refused to get a job and put your six kids on welfare?

Overtime pay should go up, not down. That's mistreating workers

It’s already time and a half. That’s fine.

Also, what does that have to do with Winston refusing to get a job and making taxpayers support his six kids?

2X seems fair to both the employer and employee.

 

[MisterBeale]

he just signs them without even looking at what he's signing. God help us.

So . . . . no different than Biden the past four years?

Ridiculous. Employees will drag their feet to get to earn double in overtime.

Not american employees. They are the hardest workers in the world, by far. Remember effort and wage are directly related.

If I were starting out as a young worker I wouldn't apply for anything less than $15 per hour today. They say our labor force is slowly shrinking so that's only going to rise. Not a bad thing though.

Entry level wages are different for each job type.

Yep. A degree that is in need can be used to force higher wages against an employer.

In labor disputes i always side against the employer. Common sense.

I would never hire anyone with a degree when I owned a business,, and I paid 25-30 an hr

they are to full of themselves and usually dumb as a box of rocks,,
