Why do you think I hate my people? I love my people. You just have this funny idea that I have to devalue the lives of others in order to show that love, and I happen to disagree.

Or maybe US citizens refuse work to for wages below minimum wage, that's what happens when you flood your homeland with millions of third world migrants.

Boot the illegals and the producers will be forced to pay a better wage, this really isn't that complicated, it's basic economics.





if US workers refuse to work for wages below minimum wage, how do you explain the food service industry with hundreds-of-thousands, if not millions, of servers working for $2.13/hour plus variable rate tips?

the wage is not the problem; work ethic is; attitude towards menial labor is. many people wouldn't want to "lower" themselves to that line of work




The reason American citizens work for $2.13/hour is because they live off TIPS. If they were to only make $2.13 an hour everybody would stop working, because after taxes are taken out they would pretty much end up with between $0-$20 for an entire week's work. Nobody is going to work for free or for only $20 for a week, what are you talking about?

And qman, are you really suggesting that Americans work for those kind of wages? Do you want to make this country like Saudi Arabia or something? You are going to lower the standard of living and make the ghetto conditions 100x worse by doing this.





:facepalm:

did you not see the phrase, "variable rate tips" in my post?

Actually rigging an election is doing watergate style dirty tricks, like hacking and stealing private correspondence and using it for political advantage. The real scandal isn't the content of the emails, it the fact that somebody is committing espionage to harm the chances of a candidate by stealing them.

Ah, okay, I see what you were saying now. I thought you were complaining that US citizens refuse to work for below minimum wage.

I once worked a restaurant, and I was surprised to find that they never checked or asked for my social security card or anything like that. They never verified that I was a citizen or that I had a valid working visa, actually.

Consequently, they didn't follow a lot of laws. For example, if you make less than minimum wage in your tips, the restaurant is supposed to meet the minimum. But they never did.

Yes, but servers can easily make $20/hr or $25/hr working on Fridays and Saturdays, which is the reason people continue working as servers, even after they get a degree. It's the Monday shifts that suck.

what one can make is irrelevant.  what one does make is relevant



i've had friends who were servers and bring home 300-500 on good nites.  on bad shifts they are lucky to bring home 50.



seriously, though, read an entire fucking post before making a reply.  and if you did read the entire post, please work on your reading comprehension skills

I did, and you asked to explain people continue who to live off $2.13 plus tips, and I'M TELLING YOU, it's because they make it out good on Fridays or Saturdays.

It has nothing to do with "work ethic" like you supposedly claim, it has everything to do with what you can potentially make. If people consistently made shit pay in tips, they would quit and go somewhere else they can make more.

Waitressing is one of the few jobs where an uneducated hard working woman can still make a good living, I don't agree with the government taking their money, that is all...

KUDOS to all of you people in touch with the politics and such of today's world! It gives me hope for a better future seeing/reading all the replies. Even though you all are arguing/debating/berating/uplifting whoever, it makes me feel pretty good to see there is at least some thought going into what is going on today instead of complete apathy.:grin: CHEERS to all of you who actively participate!:grin:

P.S.
I have been in the restaurant biz for 30 years (soon to be out thanks to me) and I can tell you that it can be lucrative money wise. BUT, the fact that if you get hurt like a broke arm/leg or something that limits your use of all four limbs, you are FUCKED! Not to mention no insurance etc...I have been making about 5-800 a week working just 25-30 hours a week (this is fucking great!). It is mostly charge tips though, I rarely get cash in the place I work, so when I do get a few bucks in cash, let's say $10-$100, you can bet your sweet bippy I WILL NOT report that, who would?

Since I am already paying taxes on tips that I should get in cash every night, I am not reporting that, call me a scumbag if you want to, but 99.9% of servers do not report every single dollar they get. They also take out 4% for tips before I get my cut to the bussers and such, and then that is taxed, and an assistant/admin/MOD gets 1% of that!. Soon I'll be a nurse and all will be well.:grin:

Dude, the Republicans have been fielding worse and worse candidates for a while now...

Even if they were top names... they were all still kinda nobodies... like Chris Christie? No. Jeb Bush? Kinda nerdy, wimpy mama's boy brother of the president who created ISIS? No. Rand Paul? Don't light a match near him. Ben Carson? Obviously crazy.

None of the candidates were remotely viable. I'm not sure what's going on but it's kinda looked like the best and the brightest have been steadily evacuating the GOP, a movement that can only be hastened by the rise of Trump. Expect a lot of old-guard Republicans to start singing the blues very soon, if you catch my meaning.

ben carson was one of the more sane and rational candidates this year.  but obviously a black medical doctor wouldn't represent the majority of people in this country especially not now
