Voting for Becerra because you “can’t vote for a billionaire” is so lazy, man. How is being funded by Chevron, Kalshi, McDonalds, and every other huge cooperation morally better??? Don’t piss me off
It’s awesome that Mr. Beast thinks this a cute little endearing factoid to say but it mostly just makes people want to dip him in a vat of boiling acid.
MrBeast reveals he has less than $1,000,000 to his name despite being a Billionaire on paper
"I have negative money right now, I'm borrowing money that's how little money I have. Technically everyone watching this video has more money than me in their bank account"
it’s so frustrating that tours are being: a) announced before the album is released, b) announced with only 3 days-1 week notice before tickets go on sale, and c) announced nearly a year before the dates…. what is the rush?? it’s becoming so inaccessible to normal, everyday fans
A minimum wage of £15 would end my coffee shop, it would have to close, as would many other businesses.
I’ll explain for the economically illiterate.
Staff costs are currently half our costs, a £15 minimum wage is actually more than £15 an hour for the company, because you have to add:
- 12.07% holiday
- Sick pay
- Maternity pay if and when required
- National insurance
- Pension contributions
These costs would mean the shop loses money because remember, energy costs are up, rates are up, regulations are up.
Now you can pass these costs onto the consumer - that would mean charging a lot more for coffee, people won’t pay it. The likes of Starbucks and Costa can, because they have economies of scale. The independent doesn’t.
Now the little socialist will say well this is your fault, if you can’t run a business that can afford to pay its staff properly, but the little socialist has never run a business and does not understand the dynamics.
Now I could pay some staff off and fill those hours myself or reduce us to one staff member during certain periods - but this proves the point that a minimum wage costs jobs.
There was a time when these jobs were done by kids, perhaps on the weekend, paid a lower wage, no holiday and no silly employment rights. Perhaps they were even paid cash. The dynamic worked and small businesses like this could operate. It was also a great first job. Sadly now it isn’t worth employing entitlement youngsters at this level of pay.
So alas, I don’t need the stress, the business would close, a number of jobs would be lost.
Economics is about understanding these dynamics, no vibes.
The cost of living is not solved through passing on inflation to the business, it is solved by ending high inflation and creating prosperity. This is what socialists don’t understand, they can’t create prosperity, they can only destroy it.
@anactualwalnut you’re looking on a resale site, you have to look on ticketmaster directly. on ticketmaster they are restricted to resale for face value. other sites like stub hub will have resellers who can place them at any price. if u love noah bad idk how you didn’t see this
