Eh, there for sure are things such as 'mental labour'. Imagine being the only person in a relationship who worries about the bills being paid on time, who invests, saves, etc, etc.
The responsible one is going to be way more stressed than the one who doesn't have to worry about those things because the other person has it covered.
It really isn't any type of manual labour, but things like that take a toll.
Anyone who's been in a relationship where they fix all the problems and handle all the responsibilities knows the feeling.
Or being 'on' all the time at work compared to being able to relax and be yourself at home. That's essentially emotional labour. Shits pretty tiring.
I'd say the lazier people are the ones who don't do the mental labour or emotional labour. They're also the ones who don't go far in any type of corporate hierarchy.
Private hospitals get extra state and federal funding if they have COVID cases as patients.
It's really not all that hard to figure out why it's occurring.
Glad you can see what you've become. Be my guest, move into a black neighbourhood. I'll be here to say "I told you so" when all of your shit is stolen, you get mugged, and your female relatives get raped.
But hey, you'll get to be so woke and understanding, so that's a win for you, right?
They have a problem looking at success. They want success, but they don't want to do anything to actually attain it. It took my family 4 generations to be 'successful' in Canada. They move here and expect it as soon as the step on our soil.
The losers could be foreigners. Look at countries like Switzerland that act that way.
Instead, our importation of the 3rd world is making them 2nd or 3rd class citizens here, and causing a shitload of social issues.
Want the job or not*
I don't care if someone doesn't want to work and can support themselves. Bu if they don't want to work and expect society to support them, they can get fucked.
I'm fine mandating that able bodied people need to be net contributors on taxes to have access to anything socialized in our country.
I'll bet my whole investment portfolio that within 5 years she's a single mother, still working part time.
Any takers?
Generations to repair....How long did the Liberal scandals of Chretien's Liberals, or the massive debt and ruining our economy of Trudeau Sr's Liberals effect the Liberals?
Obviously not generations.
You keep your integrity while we lose our country, for myself, the ends always justify the means.
I agree, and I don't like it. Exactly why you'll never see me in politics. Just because I hate it doesn't mean I don't at least understand that it may be a necessity.
You're exactly right. If I were to base my only opinions of what life is like in the city I live in (Winnipeg), I'd think our downtown is safe, our crappy neighbourhoods are where you want to raise kids, that everyone is wearing masks (we have less than 10 active cases inside the city), and that our current provincial government that won in a landslide had zero support.
Reddit is overwhelmingly un, or underemployed losers without real life social circles, so they come to the only place where they can get any amount of attention...reddit.
It's a bubble, and the people who constantly go there think it's representative of reality.
Can someone please show me an accurate portion of where technology is saving us money?
We live in one of the most sparsely populated countries on the planet, yet have crazy expensive housing.
I need an advanced degree to afford what my parents had with a degree, and what my grandparents did with a 10th grade education. Note, both me and my wife work, while my grandma stayed home.
Average car was 40k in Canada in March of this year.
Phones cost $1k.
My internet price without cable is $65 a month, and that's because I get a 'deal' for 2 years.
My net tax rate (income, property, sales, carbon, sin, gas, capital gains) is near 50%.
Now because I have a work phone, work laptop, etc, I'm essentially on call 24/7. I do not feel like I really ever get to leave work. I get compensated to a point where I'll put up with it, but it fucking sucks.
I don't know if continued modernization is something that's a benefit to society. I'm really jealous of people who lived through the 50's, 60's and 70's.
We've added trillions to the economy since our grandparents time. Is anyone any better off for it?
I can't imagine donating anything more than $10k without wanting to see where all the money is going.
I work for a massive corporation. I get to send proposals to our head office for local charitable funds.
'We' wouldn't have passed any of our oversight. At all.
It's wild some of these massive companies were handing money over so easily. There had to been some type of benefit to them. Access to MPs and the PMO at the least.
Also apparently a person who went to an elite foreign boarding school.
Do people care? Trudeaus has made maybe 1 out 10 policies he promised happen.
This is 3rd worlders voting for whoever lets them bring over the most relatives.
'Canadians'.
Every person from a shithole country is going to vote for whoever lets them bring over the most relatives.
But we're assholes for thinking murderers should get longer than 3 years because of 'rehabilitation'.
'(Held with some cause)'...what cause?
Oh, the party is too employed, too Canadian, and likes to live in areas without major crime or congestion. The horror.
Modern Hitler Youth, change my mind.
Never thought I'd see the day where I'd be applauding some of Jesse Brown's work, yet here we are.
I can't believe you've said something so off base.
Don't besmirch the Price is Right like that.
You're completely right about everything else.
And the new We 'charity' scandal.
Guys a fucking walking dumpster fire of mistakes.
It's because we're the jealous little brother who has a superiority complex (aka we're trying to overcompensate).
If you ignore the outliers, America has more opportunity, a stronger economy, smaller tax burden, is the economic powerhouse on the planet, strongest military on the planet, strongest culture on the planet, etc, etc.
"But we have free healthcare and are less racist" Anyone who has a half decent job here realize our healthcare is far from free. Anyone who has a half decent job in the US is completely covered by insurance with a $500 deductible. Compare that $500 to the thousands of tax dollars I pay per year to see my doctor once for 5 minutes. Even if I get cancer at some point, I'll have paid 100's of thousands of dollars into healthcare in my life.
I dare anyone to go live a predominantly black neighbourhood anywhere on the planet and not come out of it racist. Toronto is getting a taste of it. We get to preach from our pedestal because we don't have to face the same issues. If all the violent crime in your city is committed by one group, you'd be a moron to ignore that.
Very charitable of Margaret Trudeau to allow all those underprivileged kids to run train on her...
The fuck does an elderly whore have to offer destitute children?
Not your ghost big guy
"black hair".
Would be described as brown hair if they were white.
