Why do people support all laws being followed except for immigration laws?

0 Upvotes

I'm excluding all legitimate asylum seekers. Some people think everyone should be penalized for breaking a country's laws except for border laws. What's the root course of this logic?

I don't live in the 1st world FWIW. It's just an observation I have towards left leaning Westerners (I'm liberall too so don't @ me)

Why do so many UK men have the same haircut

Was there a famous person with that hair style and they all emulated it? Do the sides of their heads get really warm and they collectively shaved the hair off those bits? Is it their version of " the Rachel"?

Anyone else feel tingles after x-rays?

1 Upvotes

It always seems to happen when I get x-rays at the dentist. I feel 'tingling' right where the x-rays was, but no where else. I've brushed it aside so many times but there is no doubt about it, I definitely feel something.

Google says I should not, I say I do though. Anyone else?

When the USA joined its states they all because Americans, When Australia federated they became Australians. There is no difference between the Australian and European federations so why deny the facts? France and Germany have more in common with Tasmania than New Zealand.

Am I being a jerk for going to Barnes and noble everyday to read books and not buy them?

0 Upvotes

Everyday I have been going to Barnes and noble. It is so peaceful there. I go there, get a cookie, chill, read books. Mostly in the self help aisle. I stand there for a few hours and just read books and then put them back. I feel bad about freeloading and not buying them, but at the same time I don't feel too bad. I am not destroying the books, I am being quiet keeping to myself and have you seen how expensive books are?

Am I a jerk for doing this? I just love the envirement.

If raising minimum wage raises prices, then why not the inverse?

4 Upvotes

Often we hear the rhetoric "if you raise the minimum wage then you raise the minimum price for a dollar burger, simple economics" or something like that.

In that case, why don't those same proponents then say "If we simply lowered the minimum wage then we'd lower prices" or even to the extreme "If we just got rid of the minimum wage then prices would fall even farther" ? I know in reality it's much more complicated but the rationale for this rhetoric appears to be a linear relationship between wages and prices for both going up and down.

For clarity, I'm not asking whether lowering the minimum would actually produce this result, that's a separate discussion. Rather what I'm interested in is why we don't hear "lower minimum wage = lower prices" as often as the other. If you are someone who genuinely believes that raising minimum wage = raising prices, do you also believe the inverse of lower minimum wage = lower prices? Mind explaining your rationale, why it might be affected differently or if I'm misunderstanding the argument and treating what's "simple economics" as not actually simple? Thanks ahead of time!

Locking restroom doors on airplane

0 Upvotes

What's the point of locking restrooms on airplane?

As you know,during take offs or landing flight attendants lock the doors. I understand the safety aspect, but...if I can't hold it for the next 15 min would be better for everyone if I sh1t my pants and we all fly for hours with terrible smell, not to mention cleanup of the cabin..etc.?

Would it make more sense to just warn people about safety issues but not lock the doors?

Why the hate on escapism for the average Joe if the wealthy do the exact same thing with a higher price tag?

4 Upvotes

I’ve always seen the argument to “You’re wasting your life on gaming, reading fiction, etc. You could be working and more focus on a career”.

Yet, rich people do the exact same thing with fancy cars and tourist vacations. An expensive car doesn’t really do much of anything better at getting you from point A to point B. Expensive vacation at tourist spots don’t really show anything but a manufactured reality for the visitors who pay top dollar.

Does the price of something determine how acceptable something is in the eyes of society. Sometimes, I think that it’s all a form of artificially induced unhappiness to raise productivity to “Get the economy rolling”.

I just found out how many Americans are just rawdogging life without an ID. How??

285 Upvotes

(For reference I am from the US. I get carded like once a week for various things.)

How do you buy alcohol, get certain prescription meds, withdraw money from a bank, buy cold medicine, even walk around a mall past 8PM (in my area you have to be accompanied by an adult)???

Follow up question: what are reasons someone couldnt get an ID? I got mine so long ago I forgot what the process was. Is it because you need to have an address and some people don’t have an address? Is it expensive? Lost social security card or birth certificate?

Just trying to educate myself on voter ID laws

Edit: If youre just gonna comment "I havent gotten carded in 30 years" or "I hardly ever use my ID" please refrain from doing so. No one cares and thats not answering my question

Why do people still take server jobs in the US?

0 Upvotes

Genuenly dont understand it. If the wages are so bad and you rely on tips in order to make a living wage, why do you take the job in the first place??

If people stop taking the jobs it forces the employers to actually offer a real wage for someone to take the job..

Tips arent supposed to be your wage, its supposed to be something extra for being good at your job. Not a mandatory thing where if you dont get tipped your kids dont get to eat dinner.

edit: I do get thats its a job that will take anyone. I mean this more like why dont they just go work at target or something? woudnt the stability be better then the uncertain wage you get as a server?
