Why is democratic socialism bad?

I would consider 40 a vacation. Once I put in an 84 hour week and for that 2 week pay period I had 156 hours. They made me take the last day off.

The most OT I ever had was 56 hours during snow season. But normally I put in 40 hour work weeks. Iā€™ve been lucky. If a snow storm last 3-4 days, youā€™re there the entire time. Iā€™ve been able to avoid that so far, but thatā€™s why I now hate the snow.

If one wants a chicken every night and hunts, plucks and cooks it then good for them.

If one wants a chicken every night but doesnā€™t know how to hunt, pluck or cook but knows how to grow vegetables and each party is willing to trade, good for them both.

If one wants a chicken and vegetables but contributes nothing of value to the process, waiting for someone to feed them, they starve.

Since your opposed to govt help its not a strawman, got it.

Except for the fact that in Marxism THERE IS NO STATE.

There is a big difference between and ā€œhand upā€ and a ā€œhand outā€. Every conservative I know will bend over backwards to give a hand up, but rarely a hand out.

lol. ā€œcmon in the waterā€™s fineā€

Yes it is.

I said ā€œregularā€.

yeah i know the us screwed up europe had it all figured out since they were killing the natives of their lands and buying slaves

I think mine right now isā€¦ 60-65. And Iā€™m on salary so I only get paid for 45 total. Hopefully once we have more people (most of the people who are applying are complete idiots who canā€™t even tie their own shoes much less sell parts and run the retail rush) and the store is in order I can drop down to 50. That was my average at my previous store.

They make it up in commission (I get paid a decent commission off of what the store makes every month) and bonuses.

Thatā€™s why I havenā€™t been posting as much as I did on the previous board. My day starts at 4:00am and generally doesnā€™t end till 7:00pm. Some days I leave at 4 or 5 if we manage to get the tasks done on time but we are short staffed so I pick up the slack to keep from running my payroll too high.

As is mine, not counting transportation, or the roughly 10 hours spent working from home, out of about 40 hours spent at home with work items open in the background

Capitalism success story. With the amount of hours weā€™re all working, we should all be loaded.

it leads to communism

The unavoidable truth is, the Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortezā€™, Andrew Gillum and Ayanna Pressleyā€™s socialist plan for ā€œfreeā€ college tuition will be paid for by taxing millions of college graduates who worked for and paid their own way through college and are now trying to finance their own economic needs.

Glad we could agree.

I am blessed.

I get paid by the hour, soā€¦

I donā€™t understand the pathological need to involve the government in every single aspect of everything.
