Eli Bosnick had the best response to this ridiculousness.

“If I gave you a bowl of skittles and three of them were poison would you still eat them?”

“Are the other skittles human lives?”

“What?”

“Like. Is there a good chance. A really good chance. I would be saving someone from a war zone and probably their life if I ate a skittle?”

“Well sure. But the point-”

“I would eat the skittles.”

“Ok-well the point is-”

“I would GORGE myself on skittles. I would eat every single fucking skittle I could find. I would STUFF myself with skittles. And when I found the poison skittle and died I would make sure to leave behind a legacy of children and of friends who also ate skittle after skittle until there were no skittles to be eaten. And each person who found the poison skittle we would weep for. We would weep for their loss, for their sacrifice, and for the fact that they did not let themselves succumb to fear but made the world a better place by eating skittles.

Because your REAL question…the one you hid behind a shitty little inaccurate, insensitive, dehumanizing racist little candy metaphor is, IS MY LIFE MORE IMPORTANT THAN THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS OF MEN, WOMEN, AND TERRIFIED CHILDREN…

… and what kind of monster would think the answer to that question… is yes?”

Importance of Youth

If the youth writes nothing about society; we ought to be concerned for our future.

I can bear any pain as long as it has meaning.

He tried to make me feel special but that did not mean I was special.

Please let me inside of the walls of your ice castle – I know it will be freezing and unbearable for a girl, a so-called princess, in love with vibrant leaves and cherry blossom trees, but I would do anything, anything to escape from the cruelties of an universe built on superficiality and hatred – In your little corner of the world, at least, I feel loved and protected, even if you won’t even glance at me with your empty eyes We are not destined to be together, for fate tends to be the cruelest to good people - In spite of this, I am determined to be a little wiser, and a little kinder, to heal my heart and to thaw yours.

Minimum wage: $7.25

$7.25 x 40 hour full time work week: $290

$290 x 4 weeks per month: $1,160

In every Southern state (didn’t have time to look at the rest of the country) you can find some sort of studio apartment for around $500 per month, sometimes less than that. Why bother lying about something so easily disproven?

Because Bernie Sanders supporters aren’t going to fact check him, and they’ll ignore any contrary evidence that’s presented to them anyways.

[fartsandprayers]

Things like this really tick me off and It’s not political or anything but it’s the fact that you think all that money is there. Here’s what I mean;

That weekly check comes to, according to you, 290. Most places DO NOT pay for your half hour lunch that is required by law. So your beginning number was wrong. $7.25 x 7.5 hours a day x 5 days a week only gets you $271.88.  Most people in America get paid bi-weekly, so let’s double it to get the budget. $543.75. That’s GROSS, not NET. Out of that comes anywhere between 10% and 15% taxes depending on state so we’ll low ball it at 10%. Automatically down to $489.38 a pay check. Now health insurance. Usually anywhere from 70-100 a pay check for the cheapest plans. Again, we’ll low ball and go $70. So now we have $419.39 a paycheck. x 2  = $839. 

Eight hundred thirty nine dollars. A MONTH.

But again, you seem to think that’s fair. So let’s proceed. You say rent is $500? Okay. This person now has $339 left to buy groceries for the whole month, pay utilities, car payment, car insurance, and gas money to get to work. 

Those are the bare needs. You have to eat. You have to pay for heat, water, garbage removal, gas and or electricity because apartments do not always include things and rarely all of the above. Most cities in America do not have public transportation. Mine doesn’t despite the fact that our population is over 15,000 people, not counting a taxi. If you have a car, you have to pay that. If you have a car, legally you have to have car insurance. You have to pay that. You have to have gas in that car to get to work to make that money.

Now if you can tell me you can get all of that out of $339 you’re lying.

You are so focused on rent that you aren’t thinking about everything else people have to pay for. Rent was an example. This is a breakdown of the budget you gave me and it’s not possible to live off that in 2017 America. 

And BECAUSE this person makes over $800 a month, they probably won’t qualify for financial aid or food stamps. $800 is the line in my state where they won’t help you. No food stamps, financial aid, or government housing if you make more than $800 a month. 

Why does it bother you that people deserve to live above the poverty line?

[maelace]

This is also assuming you actually get 40 hours a week from your job. Most people working at minimum wage jobs get more like 25-35.

“Why does it bother you that people deserve to live above the poverty line?”

The most important question no one likes to talk about

[andre-30008]

Not to mention paying for things like phone and internet… god forbid wanting to communicate with the rest of the world! But you know 🙂

[mainmanblackdynamite-deactivate]

I love how they forgot to factor in the taxes that gets taken out of that

[thatadult]

It’s evident that the person who did the original math suggesting that was livable hasn’t paid a phone bill in their life by themselves, let alone rent

[mokshii-deactivated20210103]

You talk to me as if you never broke me and its overwhelming so much that i think I’ve started to believe it.

Life is but a sea of inconsistency. There are waves, strong and weak. Storms that come and go that may devour me. Sea creatures, big and small that may annoy me. And here I am still alive in this small boat of mine called hope, and I just keep on rowing.
