  • I'd need to have much more of a background in that era of Germany to start speculating like that. We might as well talk about Hitler being accepted into Art School or whatever that butterfly effect idea was.

  • I can't speak for McDonalds I don't go there. Can't recall any of the chains closing for worker shortages or anything, but the mom and pop shops definitely did have worker shortages, I know some of the workers personally and they took jobs for more money in other industries. I'm pretty sure McDonalds paid more than these places during covid. I haven't seen any signs in well over a year so I'd agree that there is no shortage anymore. I can confirm that several grocery stores were hiring people between 2020 and 2022. A lot of older people retired early or left public facing jobs.

    I'm not denying that some businesses choose not to hire people on purpose, I'm sure that happened too. But I'd argue that Business owners doing that are also probably terrible to work for and people probably end up quiting.

  • A Show like the View works if someone on the panel would say these things.

  • Management has a lot to do with it. There's a pizza shop in town that has had the same young staff for years. It's unheard of anywhere else. They all appear happy and motivated. Other places are mixed bags. Some employees are good, some aren't great. You get what you pay for. I can only assume the good place pays well and aren't monsters to work for. During Covid they never had staffing shortages unlike the rest which had long wait times or signs on the door about staffing shortages. One place in was getting testy about their signs, not going as far to say "no one wants to work", but close. Turns out they were offering $11/hr, while the Grocery store literally next door was offering $15/hr, and usually more hours at that. I don't know if they ever figured out why they couldn't keep staff.

  • Yea this is just sad. I know this is the View, and having unpopular opinions is what fuels ratings and all but damn.

  • Yea, let's go back to the guy that's juggling a half dozen criminal court cases, and tried to overthrow the government, and is more likely to take away my right to vote entirely instead of being mildly annoyed at Joe Biden.

  • Can't tell if you were talking about Clinton and Trump or Johnson and Stein. Trump and Stein were the worst two. I'm not convinced shes not a literal Russian plant, and if not she's a useful idiot for sure. Johnson wasn't even as good as his running mate, but that party is a joke anyway.

  • It's majority sexism against a strong woman with power. The vitriol against her was unmatched. To this day people blame her for hearsay or flat out fabrications of things she supposedly did that other Politicians, namely Trump, were proven guilty of. It's incredible when you look down through the list. The Bush and Trump Administrations both violated the same data handling rules by using private communication mechanisms and commit countless crimes surrounding it; Yet Hillary is the one to get the most criticism despite nothing being covered up. I had a list years back that Trump was guilty of nearly everything the Clintons were accused of. Crazy.

  • Rigging the primaries by.... adhering to the popular vote. Got it.

  • given that we know Bernie would have won

    You don't know that at all. You didn't see the playbook against him.

  • I think it's close enough that you can get the point.

  • How did a Single mother who had to get her GED have the equivalent of $620,000?

  • Every time I go and shave... I assume there's someone else on the planet shaving... So I say... ... 'I'm gonna go shave, too.'
