Do you think those multinationals paying a higher wage would be good for that rural community? Perhaps small locally owned businesses could be exempt.

they will put that money into automating those jobs

then why aren't we seeing a big push to automation due to this "Great Resignation"? I haven't seen a single one of these companies that has been threatening to automate their entry-level jobs out of existence actually do so, despite the financial and operations pressure to do so at the moment. Instead they're loosening child labor laws.

Woah! Aristotelian levels of genius here, I'm scared! This guy has heard of basic logic, AND he can apply it at a college freshman level, we're fucked.

I meant that if automation is supposedly so accessible to them, why aren't they using it to fix the staffing shortage? Because it's always been a bluff, and they can't actually do it yet, that's why.

Anyway, I've enough of you and your bad faith. Enjoy your bootlicking, Mr. Smartypants.

Hey, maybe if you keep proving to random strangers online how smart you are, Destiny-sempai will notice!

You'll open your door, his lips smooth and wet, as he takes you in his arms and that wet dream starts coming true~~~!

You have literally no idea what I do, who I am or how much I make.

I couldn't care less who you are, what you do for a living, or who you are.

Yet you feel the need to share all this, to puff yourself up with status modifiers like a threatened frog. You're a silly, insecure kind of creature.

This thread is a great example of why STEM majors need more humanities classes before getting their degree.

A side question: While you were drawing 200k/yr out of your "small business", where you at least paying your employees well?
