Pretty sure they get paid regardless of if they're tipped.

Pretty much all of them.

You're free to go whenever you want. Just know that when you renounce your US citizenship, you can't get it back.

Yeah, prison being for rehabilitation is pretty stupid.

It also doesn't make sense to defund the police if you don't own a gun and can't fight.

Nations with the strictest drug laws have the fewest users.

Same with nations that have laws against homosexuality. Fewer people are openly gay in them.

I know you want to live in your fantasy world where nobody is deterred by punishment, but that's just not the world we live in.

It's sad this needs to be explained to so many of you, but that's what makes this a microcosm. The majority opinion here is not representative of the world as a whole, and in many times shouldn't be.

That's a pretty shitty icon.

I was referring to the overall cost of products, like what the businesses pay to bring them to market.

Yes, things should cost less for customers because businesses are making less profit.

Look dude, I get it. You seem upset because I don't see the value in being linked a wall of text on the internet. It's because I've been there, many times, and it overwhelmingly is not worth taking seriously.

Like I said, you'll understand this when you have more experience. I'm tired of repeating myself, and taking your insults.

I'm gonna block you now. Goodbye.

Anyways man, have a nice day.

But if two companies offer similar products go with the employee owned company.

Completely ignored my point about lower quality and higher prices.

It means the end users have power over what is offered.

What do you mean? The employees or the customers? I don't really care if the employees have the power. That just moves who's trying to take advantage of me.

As opposed to big box in which case it is non local non user shareholders.

It also doesn't matter if they're local.

What matters is if they give me a better deal. If they can't do that, I will go with someone who will.

Absolutely. Shoving a wall of text in someone's face that you didn't type and saying "read this" is not worth my time.

If you want effort, put forth effort. I can also link to a plethora of stuff and say "read this," but I won't because it's a waste of time and you can find any information you want on the internet.

Sorry this needs to be spelled out for you. You'll understand it as you get older.

Sorry, I'm not reading any of that.

Would you like to use your words and tell me what you want to say?

Really? I've heard Epic Games employees described as just 'bodies.'

I believe the quote was something like, "I don't care, just get us more bodies" to work on fortnite. James Stephanie Sterling did a video on it.

I'm not sure who you've been talking to, but your entire post reads like corporate bullshit. Epic sucks because their service is worse than Steam and tries to convince people like you it's not.

Hemorrhaging money? What the fuck? Have you seen how much people are making at Epic? Dev says the pay is good, what do you think his higher ups are getting paid?

Like, only a legitimate fool would think Epic 'hemorrhaging money' is any cause for concern. No, any inconsistencies in where money is going stems solely from who they're paying. I.e. people doing as little work as possible while making as much money as possible.

Sorry this needs to be explained to you, but I truly think you have been taken for a ride. If not, then you're trying to take others for one.

Gonna block you now though, brother. After reading your post, I don't believe you have anything to offer me and are just going to double-down on Epic being a company worth supporting. See ya.

What? I like using self-checkout.

Stealing from corporations is always reclamation.

Every profit they make is them getting extra for doing nothing extra.

Fuck them.

Also, all of these companies have theft insurance.

I don't really have any sympathy for people working for epic.

They knew what they were getting into.

Literally every republican woman I know is a single mom to a deadbeat dad.

Crazy how their rhetoric has been flipped on them. These would be nice people otherwise, but they're surrounded by shitbags so they feel they also need to be shitty in order to fit in.

Ahh, that's why I keep hearing all the proprietary idiots mentioning it!

Lol, makes so much sense now.

It only makes sense to buy music someone else hasn't already so you can seed it for everyone else.

I was wondering when things would go belly-up for bandcamp.

Things have been far too good for far too long there. Almost like a remnant of the past.

That’s not at all feasible for places with long, cold winters, or southwest areas without enough water, among others.

I wonder how people in these areas survived without grocery stores, then.
