Not with taxes going up and the country being so divided

Ok fine so hire one worker for 32 an hour instead of 0/2 for 16. It’s not rocket science, you just might have to cut hours or services.

Yeah i don’t think Medicare even pays enough to covers the providers wages much less they building overhead and equipment

Since health insurance is 20-30% of the benefits package it’s cheaper to either hire under the full time bar or work people 7 days a week 10hrs a day and just pay the overtime differential. I think the calculus has swung enough that overti

Its true we’re working towards more of a indentured model.

Ask the railroad workers… that’s what they are striking about

We can’t afford childcare and maintenance of standard of living. Dual income is a trap

You are misinformed. The railroad union got screwed. For one they didn’t get an actual contract. As far as I can tell they got Tentative deal that was used as a procedural trick to delay the strike till after the midterms. It’s not even cle

Interesting that they use a humidity sensor. The humidity is at microwave popcorn isn’t as good as the theater stuff. They popcorn isn’t allowed to dry and get a bit soggy

Ha you say that in jest but Enron is a good model for large zombie corporations. We know a lot more about the inner workings of Enron that we do about many corporations as well.

It’s a bad model I ageee but the defined benefits Usally get pegged at last couple years salary so you just have to hope you don’t retire into inflation like we have now

Illinois can absolutely be fixed. It’s called bankruptcy and jails (for corruption) and the sooner you do it the better off everyone will be.

The right thing is to just do less at the right staffing levels. Trying to do the same amount causes everything to grind to a halt. Most managers end up doing the latter because slowing things down against organizational inertia is really h

The system actively punishes those that do work so yeah… 10x incentive problems

Yes basically pay the money upfront not after 20 years of service after they quit or quit in place

Paying people 50% of their wages in ballooning retirement benefits is not the best way to get the best and brightest.

Unions don’t work the way you think they do. If they are large unions they actually actively negotiate against the workers as well. Take a look at the railroad union as an example. Only smaller local unions are effective at negotiating wag

I think that already exists. You get some base amount with hookup fee and the rest you pay extra for

It’s more efficient in a garage or basement but you can put it in the house it will just fight your heater in the winter

They will mandate these in essence. Force everyone that’s renting to go heat pump. That’s the cheapest retrofit https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/rheem-introduces-12...

You don’t need anything that complicated I’m thinking something like this. It already exists btw https://cleantechnica.com/2021/11/29/120-volt-heat-pump-wate...

I wonder if you can make a heat pump water heater that can plug into a regular 20amp circuit as a simple retrofit. Performance will be poor/slow but landlords don’t care

The good ones got looted and sold to the USA decades ago. The shit ones probably got officially destroyed but instead got substituted for the ones sold off.

I don’t understand why you would want a Tesla etf. Seems like a path for unsophisticated investors to loose money in ways they don’t understand

Nah it will just create a new style of poverty and rob poor people if even more time

It’s also why it’s really hard to go vegan. You can’t substitute 1 ingredient you need to abandon the way you cooked before and take a completely new approach to your meals

The process uses ancient terminal tech duct taped together and connected to dot matrix printers. This contraption is operated by inexperienced folks that are used to iPads. Failure is all but inevitable, it’s a wounded things even work at

The engine costs about as much as an airframe to build. If your scrappy start up builds an airframe on the cheap you still incur all the legacy costs of engine manufacturers. Also Pratt is a solid 3rd tier manufacturer. It’s really GE and e
