Which sucks because I did use to think that “Made in the USA” meant better quality.

That’s true, but we could subsidize the cost of labor too. People make a living wage, but the company pays less than that because government covers the difference.

Maybe the USA should heavily invest in the industry of the USA, just like China does, in order to keep up? No, then USian companies would have oversight & have to meet expectations, and we all know that they wouldn’t want that.

The deregulation & lack of inspections is probably so that the people don’t have as many legitimate reasons to demand higher pay.

I’m guessing they mean they’ll be erasing the records set while competing as a female, which makes sense.

Harassment sure, but not abuse.

So they are ok with spending hundreds of millions of dollars, just not in any way that actually improves the city for the people that live in it?

It’s not about the money, it’s just misanthropy.

Lol I think they’re already using the same technology that is used by AI to do biochemistry, so I didn’t mean “ask chatGPT.”

Maybe use some that AI shit to engineer some microbes that can eat plastic. Or I dunno make less plastic waste?

Toyota didn’t start out making cars. Does that mean they shouldn’t have started making cars?

Yes, DoorDash got its start delivering food, but that doesn’t mean they are restricted to that permanently.

And yes, I recognize that electronics are expensive, but that’s why I said to press charges on the delivery driver. DoorDash & BestBuy didn’t steal the package, even if they are being lazy about their delivery protocol.

But…

If we have enough evidence of instances where DoorDash drivers steal with impunity… we should be able to start a class action lawsuit against DoorDash since they are basically being negligent.

Oh ok, I thought it stood for make America hate again, but that works too

*MAGA?

Well BestBuy would be like 95% off the hook. You’re gonna just let Rick & the boys off the hook? Unless BestBuy is running an op with Rick & the boys, it’s Rick & the boys that stole your shit.

If it keeps happening, and BestBuy keeps using Rick & the boys, then they’d be 100% liable because of negligence.

I think it’s a balancing act. We definitely do it to an unhealthy degree currently, but we need to do it to some degree. It would be just as unhealthy for anyone to come into your house at any time because why not?

Kinda missed my point. It’s the driver’s choice to steal.

Some people are gonna be thieves even if you give them that help. Still others will take advantage of you for having the heart to help.

Some people are thieves no matter the socioeconomic factors.

You guys weren’t supposed to find my animal form.
