The Hypocrisy of businesses requiring proof of vaccination

[Toothed]

One photo. Not exactly hard data. The bug forum section requires more evidence. Off Topic requires practically none it seems.

I told your mom I got the vaccine and she turned into a super spreader.

corporate oligarchy america crushed small business in 1 year over a nothing virus with the help of the fear-mongering media

proof of vaccination is nothing more than an ID card proving you're really really dumb

From 2019-2021, antivaxxers stock multiplied by 1000x; beat Bitcoin to the moon. They went from being the laughing stock to the societal norm. Anything is possible.

[starkind]

On a basic level OP is undeniably right. And our government as all governments do. Unjustifiably. Does this bullshit at many levels and with many industries. Rome is weak.

Look. No one wants to die. But our culture is to safety focused and if you even put your hand gently on an irate psycho's shoulder to clear an exit so people can leave. Well the police come and kneel on our necks for 10 minutes.

Yup.

Brother in law owns a couple restaurant locations and hes working 12 hours a day, 7 days a week because he can't find enough help.

Sad times in America. Able bodied people sitting at home collecting off the government instead of working.

Imagine if the government gave out that $600 / week to those that were actually out working those low skill / low pay jobs. Unemployment would be less than 2%.

But they don't want that.

lol, looks like your brother in law needs to pay more if he can't find people with his starvation wages. Free market 101. If your business model relies on starvation wages it does not deserve to exist. Costco, Chik-fil-a, In'n'out, Wawa, and other high-paying employers are having zero trouble finding employees while still offering competitive prices.

Seriously, if you can't compete with $600 a week designed to ease pandemic suffering and you're begging for the government to coerce people into adequate desperation to take your job, you're a shit person, a leech, and an affront to the American values that make our form of capitalism work

What makes you think small local businesses are exempt from competition? I thought trumptards were supposed to believe in free enterprise and competitive spirit? There are plenty of small businesses out there that don't pay their employees jack shit. I revel in the products of your brother in law's poor business practices.

I'll say it again: If your small business model relies on starvation wages, don't bitch when you can't find anybody desperate enough to take them. These businesses can either go under, or they can make people more, it's that simple. If they go under, it's for no other reason than that they failed to adapt and deserved it.

[Toxigen]

the point is the gubment should offer incentives for people to go back to work

just the opposite is happening right now and its killing small business across a lot of industries

You literally can't logically point out how or why I'm wrong so you use vagaries like "academic outlook" and "dipshit", because my logic doesn't jive with your emotions on this matter.

I'll say it a third time, if small businesses are dying because of this, they deserve to die and make room for businesses that pay their employees. Businesses need to compete or die.

[Toothed]

You're talking about small business restaurants. Places that historically have always paid their staff the minimum wage. The rest of their wages are made up with gratuity. Now that all of them have been shut down or nearly shut down due to the government you want to blame the businesses for out of date business practices? You are so out of touch with reality it's not funny. We're not talking about the corporations that also pay the same shit wages -minus gratuity. In what world would you rather eat mcdonalds (garbage) rather than a home cooked meal. You sound like a great tipper bro.

McDonalds has enough money to get around the problem where small businesses do not. So you are getting rid of small businesses and promoting large corporations when democrats whole MO is about narrowing the wealth gap when in reality their practices are widening it.

Sounds to me like minimum wage + gratuity is too low if they can't entice workers, right? Maybe they should pay more?

There are no shutdowns any more in 95%+ of places, the government isn't doing anything to these businesses. If business is still light, it is because people as an aggregate are still making a conscious decision to avoid certain situations out of self preservation or whatever reason.

It sounds like you are desperate for reasons to defend unsuccessful business models, as if no small restaurant business has ever paid their employees more than minimum wage + tips and stayed in business? Sounds like you are the one who is out of touch. Running a business is difficult and risky. You shouldn't be trying to convince the government to end a popular policy designed to ease pandemic suffering because it is having downstream effects on what free, rational-actor employees are choosing to do.

[Toothed]

You obviously have no fucking clue how a restaurant works or operates. Your logic is something like this "well the government shut you down and you can't afford to pay your employees anymore, but just pay your employees more and you'll recover, or die!" The damage is already done.

I think the problem with businesses not being able to hire people is just a short term problem, like right now nobody wants to work or go outside, some do, but they were probably working all year.

most min wage workers were not, and they are not ready nor do they really need to right now, because guess what, they're not going out! so theyre not spending money, and dont need to work.

But as the months go on, and going out becomes normalized again, more apps for jobs will come in, and the pay and jobs will normalize again.

We're in a once a century bubble, things are crazy right now because that bubble is popping.

No, the problem is people are collecting $600 / week for doing nothing and they would prefer to do that than work and make more.

Anyone still collecting is a lazy, disgusting leech and I'd pack them all into a space ships and send them directly into the sun.

This has already been explained time and time again.

A newly renovated McDonalds in my county is hiring right now at $18/hour. If you're an unemployed low-skill worker, you can't afford to pass that up for unemployment + $400/week. If you live in a shithole state where McDonald's starts at $8 an hour, you can't afford to give up unemployment +400/week to work.

It has nothing to do with work ethic and everything to do with survival. If you're on the margins and you can get a 50% pay increase doing anything, you're an asshole if you don't take it. No matter what it is or, in this case, isn't.

Do they need to end the $400/week? Probably. I like the bonus program Montana put in place. Sure they just did it to get the pleebs to go back to work pouring lattes in Boz Angeles, but its a decent idea.

And nothing at all happened with tainted vaccine doses and everyone said exactly the number of death they had related to this new disease and it started in Spain is why we call it the Spanish flu, am i right?
