the only way i can see fast food not getting it wrong is the 1950s mcdonalds type of fast food. factory made style no customization and everything kept simple. you had your choice of shakes, soda, fries, and hamburger /cheese burger. they premake it. keep it warm and all the front has to do is bring you your food. KISS.

@Lennis01 the whole point of getting a bachelors is becoming an officer.

if we look at it historically minimum wage (at least by california standards) only went up $0.20/hr every year. california minimum wage was $10.00 in 2016. to have naturally hit $15.50/hr it shouldn't have happened until 2043.... we jumped the gun by 21 years.

WW2.... the las time the us officially won. that is not something we would be going aroud bragging about. and hte US had to fight hard for WW2 too. rationing at home wartime production only no consumer goods total mobilization of hte military by war end 16 million in uniform.

@tonyharty3666 i know all that it was a allied effort. i was just saying even despite all that us had to fight hard and the civilians at home had to feel the burn.

@jsebby2284 it's too subjective. The top 50 percent of all taxpayers paid 97 percent of all individual income taxes, while the bottom 50 percent paid the remaining 3 percent. but obviously that's not good enough for these sycophants. The top marginal tax rate was 91% during the 1950s that's what people cite all the time but people forget even back in teh 1950s they had even mor writeoffs than today. so it averaged out to around 40% which is what rich people pay these days. long story short if you keep trying to drain the rich dry less money they use to reinvest into start up ventures.

@jsebby2284 because if they say atoo high of a number they get laughed at for being clueless. like no one would want to pay those kinds of tax rates.

only officers and senior NCOs make good money

target is inferior to walmart. so if walmart can't take on amazon than nobody can.

hmmm you're on to something

at the end of the day having a plant in america is too cost prohibitive unless you're doing high end manufacturing. between the taxes you have to pay between the higher labor even the lowest is federal minimum wage and that don't even come close to say mexican labor cost. you got insurance, regulation, licensing just everything will cost more doing business in america between raw materials, overhead, and machine tooling etc. if we're just talking high tech manufacturing... it will be a lot of automation involved so you couldn't really hire that many people regardless.

what's crazy innstead of allowing for hyperinflation and then resetting we're going for a slow demise.

it is.

fast food jobs if you split it up like before would not be as bad but that's just my take. like for example I'll use the 1950s mcdonald style fore example. only the cashier deals with the customer. usually you pick the best interpersonal one out of hte lot to do this and of course they have to be good at operating the register. one guy or gal job is to cook the patty one guy or gal job is to peel the potatoes one guy or gal job is to put condiments on the burgers one guy or gal job is to wrap the burgers one guy or gal job is to sweep the floor or premises etc. basically if you keep customer interaction with the workers as little as possible the workers would not be as annoyed. they can focus on just doing the task. also if managers let the workers just do their jobs with little oversight.

@danieldaniels7571 I was trying to explain his to reduce the drudgery

it's 145 percent now. and don't forget base item tariffs. so if your item already had a 10% tariff before the tariff wars... it's 155% for your product.

yeah about that pepsi will like to have a word with you on that.

iraq 2004 all over again. they were pretty much letting in people with felonies at that point in time

well so much for hte officer corp... if you have a bachelors degree you are an officer. you aren't going to be an enlisted person with a college degree.
1
im sure many people have mentioned this but ROI of college has been dropping for years. the cost has been going up far faster than inflation and even housing. companies want results. they dont even really care about that paper any more or as much anymore. companies are even offering job training or their own apprenticeship programs now. trade schools are shorter and straight to the point. long story short people need ot make money now. we have a shorter window to make money, everything is getting more expensive year after year, and colleges are not helping that.

this is hilarious everyone is trying to get in on everyone elses racket. amazon is trying to get more in to brick and mortar while walmart is trying to get more into ecommerce... like this sh-t is just willy wonka land type of upside down.

If you can make $100k close to your home in a a/c office...why would people join the military.... Risk reward really

@willalfano8 we're just replacing a meat bag robot with a metal version

no one company can handle the logistics of fulfilling to an entire country in a timely fashion the fact that amazon is doing as good of a job they are so far is quite impressive. america is 3,809,525 sq miles and 333 million people. before it sseemed faster because not as many people shop online hence they could deal with the logistics better but now you could say demand is overtaking the supply.

@ivanr5436 i always do these weird things where in a conversation i talk about stuff not related to the topic on hand and people are totally thrown off. but back at the point i meant eventually even if peopel don't want or want that minimum wage would eventually reach the $15.00 mark if they average $0.20/hr increase every year. $1.00/hr over the course of 5 years. now the federal minium wage is more interesting as it's been capped at $7.25/hr since 2009 but if we look at how much the federal minimum wage went up from $0.25/hr back in 1938 about $0.10/hr every year from 1938-2009 not adjusted for inflation. with no increase for the last 13 years. if federal minimum wage kept pace at $0.10/hr from 2009 to 2022 it would be $8.55/hr now.

@ivanr5436 i don't want to be a debbie downer but if people kept theier mouths shut, worked, and did what htey're supposed to do... i would see less jobs being offshored and being automated... the elites don't want to replace humans without a reason. we're basically forcing their hand.

oh boy you're gonna be surprisd there. so many people are mentally unfit, physically unfit, medically unfit, have criminal histories etc. you're gonna have a ton of 4Fs. you got deferrments. you can basically be a conscientious objector and that would disqualify you. oldest trick in the book. just jump off a ledge and break your foot. you're disqualified.

theres no such thing as new... its just things that keep getting recycled over and over again

for the first time in history the elites can finally decouple from teh workers in masse. basically all they need is the people to maintain infrastructure and to fix the machines and that's it. but they would need to get around the taxes that the government will set up to extract money from them to fund the safety nets to prevent revolts.
