  1. Oh no, Biden is going to crash our already disastrous economy by driving up costs with this silly $15 per hours minimum wage. Whatever shall we do?
  2. But that's what has been happening in like every market for decades, while minimum wage has changed very little. That's what I'm saying. Raising the minimum wage would meet the already inflated cost of living.
  3. It depends on how quickly it is raised and by how much. When inflation is already insane, a $15.00 raise over time would not cause the economy to collapse. So we should just keep it at $10 or $12 dollars? I'm confused. This argument is null since raising minimum wage would be a step in the direction towards meeting the growing inflation of goods/services that has snowballed over the past few decades. The disparity is real.
  4. When the federal minimum wage hasn't been raised in over 11 years, this is a difficult argument to grasp. So many people are struggling and unable to break even, because their state is so far from having to pay a living wage. I really don't understand this "inflation" argument. We're in one of the worst recessions in US history, and we have almost one thousand billionaires in the US, who barely pay taxes and have only gotten richer since the start of the pandemic. But you want to poo-poo raising the minimum wage? Something that will immediately help countless Americans in one of the most difficult periods in history. Make it make sense.
  5. The cost of living grows exponentially every year while minimum wage stays the same. Raising it is the first step towards a longterm solution.
  6. Just going to leave this here: ”As of November 2020, Georgia and Wyoming have the lowest state minimum wage requirements, according to data from the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL). At $5.15 per hour, both states have a minimum wage of more than $2.00 below the federal mark of $7.25.”
  7. Oh wow. That's strange. Every other release has been great.
  8. Interesting. I hope there aren't a bunch of QC issues with this record. It might explain the multiple delays.
  9. @NotDoctor does your copy have two different types of red vinyl? One seems to be translucent here.
  10. If it ever does become unavailable, I can see TFM box set tripling in price for resale, easily. There’s been no number released for how many they’ll be pressing. But since this is the only version of TFM on regular (non-picture disc,) vinyl and that comes in a jacket, it may become sought after.
  11. It’s really nice looking in person and is slightly translucent, actually.
  12. I did! No shipping notice yet. I’ll let you know though! TF/TFM sound incredible. As does ARTPOP! I have high hopes for BTW.
