I all you can get is a near minimum wage job and you aren't mentally or physically handicapped then at some point you were either lazy or made some very bad decisions.
I concluded he was making a joke about AOC saying it.

50% of our workforce IS NOT minimum wage.
They pay 3% of our federal taxes?
Something is fckn up because they do pay taxes on that paystub.
Liberals always look to blame government policies and the rich.
Conservatives always look to blame the individual for their plight.
Im saying we got a problem in the distribution of wealth.
Something is rotten. How to fix it, I’m not sure.
I know this, it’s NOT purely due to bad decisions and laziness.

WTI $41 Brent at $45
$30's coming up I guess. Thank Vlad when you fill up.
I need it at 4.50 a gallon in Texas.
I want to kayak without the yahoos burning gas in their shallow grass flat boats and scaring all the fish.
Wage growth has simply not materialized. When unemployment is low, the trend is for wages to go up, since there's allegedly more compe ion in the marketplace.
There's many reasons for this phenomenon right now, here's an article that summaries some:
https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/...ob-market.html
Do you think those "numbers" (aka "Capitalism S Labor) just happen naturally, inevitably as "free-market, open compe ion Capitalist economics", or are they induced, even forced, by govt and Capitalist actions?
They still did that when gas was expensive. The ones I really hated were the airboats.
Absolutely air boats. I feel like chunking a chain in the prop. Possibility of injuries way too high.
Traffic was considerably lower when gas was high in my experience. (Redfish Bay Area OfF Of 361)
Although they did end up ruining places for each other and cussing each other.
No need to cuss a kayaker. Just burn the shoreline in my entire path. go between me and the shoreline because you can and I can’t chase you down and ruin it for you.
The boaters and airboats way off in the middle of nowhere are usually very cognizant of your presence and take obvious precautions to be kind.
Ahh, eventually I find em in a back lake. I will go either way. But I still want high gas prices. I love empty boat parking lots in the middle of the week.
The evidence we have is that poverty causes bad decisions, not vice versa.
I think it's natural as the market has expanded to the whole world, and technology has made that possible. The US is largely noncompe ive in the vast majority of non-specialized areas. Retraining is hard, costly, and normally not covered by the market, especially for people of older age.
Demagogues are going to keep rambling against globalization because it's an easy target that resonates with the non-rich 70% or so of this country, but in practice, this is what capitalism evolved into. It's still about being efficient, streamlining costs, getting the best ROI, etc.
There's no easy solutions or silver bullets for this, tbh.
Dow futures down over 900 with prospect of oil price war. Oil plummets 30%.

Sitting on 95% cash since my one year treasuries matured last month. Trick is to get a good entry point.
Russia is self sufficient thanks mainly to US sanctions
Putin is probably letting other oil banana republics go down in flames, also seeing the onliteration of US fracking industry and enjoying Wall Street go to the toilet
Pretty clear tomorrow is gonna suck.
Asian and European markets have crashed. 6% loss Id expect similar loss tomorrow on Wall Street
Sad thing is the markets are crashing now not because the virus in china but the almost guaranteed pandemic in the USA
We're already at pandemic status TBH. It's not under control. Nothing is under control anywhere. Tomorrow they may even have to halt trading inter-day if we have a full blown crash. I believe only 7% or something like that is the magic number to trigger trading halt automatically.
Yep, I've been using leveraged S&P500 (SPXL) - buy and sell the downs and ups.
