“We cant raise minimum wage bc rent will increase”

Stop using the passive voice. Say what will actually happen. Landlords will increase rent — a voluntary action, not a natural result. The fun thing about voluntary actions is that they can be legislated against. What IS a natural result is that when landlords raise rent, their tenants’ wages automatically devalue. Again, the solution here is to stop the voluntary choice from being a choice at all.

Landlords choosing to increase rent is the problem, not a natural result of the solution.

[jenniferrpovey]

Reasonable rent control would solve a lot of problems.

[alarmist-nonsense]

Eliminating landlords would solve a lot of problems.

see the problem with pointing this out is that a lot of people genuinely think the workers only need food stamps or medicaid because they aren’t living thrifty enough

If you've read a lot of political theory and you think to yourself "I should start a YouTube channel where I explain political theory to the masses using my big fat brain," that is the voice of Satan. That is the Devil whispering in your ear and tempting you down the path to damnation. You must be strong.

you can read about it in a few places. here’s one article on the subject, but there’s plenty to be found.

Hey I just went to look to see if there was any new developments since this was posted (June 2020), And the actual trial as far as I know the trial will begin around November 2021. So this is still relevant.  Archive.org Blog |  Publisher’s Weekly

Re: the last post, the article mentions that some places use clams to test the toxicity of the water. It’s like that in Warsaw- we get our water from the river, and the main water pump has 8 clams that have triggers attached to their shells. If the water gets too toxic, they close, and the triggers shut off the city water supply automatically.  

The clams are just better at measuring the water quality than any man-made sensors.

They hot glued a spring to a clam and gave it full control over the water supply

[sindri42]

No of course not, that would be ridiculous.

They hot glued springs to eight clams and gave them collective control over the water supply.

[strangetikigod]

No of course not, hot glue would kill the clams.

The used silicone adhesive to attach springs to eight clams and gave them collective control over the water supply.
