First things first they need to just hire my autistic ass for something.
Remember a discussion amongst the wealthy with one guest telling them some hard truths that they don't listen to. You have to provide your workers with positions that not only pay well to live but also decency and respect. Second is pay your damn taxes.
We dont ask much of the wealthy.
Leave the world better than you found it. Dont be a dick.
You might as well be asking them at this point to end themselves then destroy their immortal souls if they believe in that.
We should really be "asking" for a lot more
It’s all awkward psychological bullshit games. Always has been.
Ron Swanson would hate this. But Nick Offerman would approve.
(If he’s not a bootlicker.)
Nick Offerman only licks Megan Mulally's boots
As well he should
Y'all get paid enough to survive?
Chef's kiss emoji on this one. Absolute legend.
That's capitalism...
Pay me enough to thrive, not just survive.
Panel two should be “pay me minimum wage”
What you said and what the panel does say is the same thing
No, because I don’t think minimum wage is enough to survive in a lot of places.
That's how they get you to work multiple jobs for more hours to extract further value. If you are surviving then you are being paid the value of your labor power or being subsidized by family.
Exactly my point it should be high enough so that people can live
No you're missing the point, minimum wage does neither
And minimum wage should be at living a life level, but there still needs to be a minimum and a maximum cuz we can't give all work the same reward
Not with that attitude.
This meme is even better knowing that the Ron Swanson character is unapologetically libertarian.
edit: spelling is hard
He is, but Nick Offerman would absolutely say this.
I’m tired and at first this looked like a Riker meme.
