So you can offer more arithmetic that ignores the reality of the US political system? Tempting

Account is only a month old as well. Totally nothing suspicious

They haven’t thought that far ahead.

Oh so, what’s the arithmetic for how many times this has happened?

0 + 0 = 0

Coincidentally, that’s also the likelihood of this happening.

Turns out, if enough people do this, there’s even a small chance they might win.

Do you have an examples you’d like to cite of this happening in the context of a US presidential election?

NYT finally getting the recognition they deserve.

Obligatory Nazi bar reference

The first step? They’ve been on this path for years

Yeah I’m sure they were all working without their livelihoods depending on this job. Fucking idiot

Social value and value are not the same thing. Comparing teaching to farming makes zero sense and I think you might be misunderstanding the Baumol effect. It’s talking about wages raising irrespective of productivity changes in the position because they are competing against other jobs with higher wages, as in competing for the worker.

It has nothing to do with social value, and social value has little to do with wages, unfortunately.

it is the social value of your role what you get paid for

Lol. Your pay is dependant on how much value your bosses/company thinks can be extracted from your labor.

There are plenty of jobs that have social value (i.e. Teachers, Fire Fighters, etc) that don’t get paid high wages.

I’m in the same boat. I think the costs should be reflected in the price of the meal.

Tips exist because servers were/are paid below minimum wage. A service charge should replace the tip, not be added on top of it. Or the restaurant should factor labor costs into the price of their meals. The owners are double dipping to shift the cost onto the consumer.

Considering it only take a 2/3 majority to remove the President from office, your split seems to be arbitrary and made in bad faith to minimize the results.

Also, it’s 13.2%, not 6.6%.

Honestly, I got defensive and wouldn’t have written any of this if you hadn’t said “what kind of math are you doing” like it wasn’t t obvious what I did.

Good on you for this, seriously. I sounded like a dick, but was asking earnestly.

Same tbh

That is a great question… That I don’t know the answer to. Non Zero Sum according this website. It’s a edu domain, but idk it’s credibility.

But is a zero-sum outcome, so the 13.2% differential is what’s actually relevant.

56.6% - 43.4% = 13.2%. What kind of math are you doing to get 6.6%?

A double digit win? What would you consider overwhelming?
