Good fucking Criminey I hate this bastard. Bro just wants generations of cheap wage slaves for him and his buddies to harass. The world will become a much nicer place once he dies on a Ketamine binge or something.
Whoever supplies him could do us all a massive favor... Just a tiny bit of fentanyl is all it would take.
Even better...enforce laws against unlawful termination of pregnant employees:
What happened to "Can't feed them, don't breed them"? Why do I feel this tax break would only apply to a subsection of the US population?
Reminder that Harris suggested a 6k tax rebate for parents of newborns, and even that isn't really ideal but it's the same idea as it helps offset lost wages and subsidizes childcare which is desperately needed.
And before you say "but why have kids if you can't support them"--- that's irrelevant as far as society is concerned. Shit gets dystopian really fast when there's no new people. We are supposed to finance education for similar reasons, too, as a functioning adult generation prevents .... Well, all this crap we're dealing with now.
Cool. SO those of us who can't or won't breed have to subsidize the ones who do. Fuck that shit.
Children are the future generation. As much as musk is a shit hole, you're also a selfish bastard for not wanting to allow children to grow up secure. Do you hate paying for school?
Fast forward. Retirement homes, health care workers, etc. Definitely will be the kids of now taking care of all of us as we get older.
We already do with a welfare system that incentivises un(der)employed single mothers with multiple children.
Even a married couple with multiple kids and minimum wage jobs can achieve a higher standard of living with entitlements than a single person with no kids, college education, and a job making above minimum wage.
lemme guess. the law will be written in such a way that it very narrowly defines a situation where a father with multiple children with multiple mothers, and billions in unrealized 'earnings' each year, could split their own income between them, file jointly several times over, and end up getting back billions in earned income credit instead of paying in anything?
This is who is running your country
Dude looks like baron Harkonnen.
Not smart enough
Baron H. Was the bad buy in the first book, but if you keep reading that series you learn that having 1 all powerful leader is never really a good idea.
Just food for thought.
Lookin more like a Stimpy gross-up close-up every minute.
No sir, i don't like it.
He looks like a giant roach in a rotting flesh suit
Sounds like they need children for the war machine.
Or general labor, for some reason Republicans keep talking about how they happily worked the fields when they were 10 or whatever. They just want to ensure child labor is available for all.
Shit, i should type this into a pretty infographic somewhere, the number of times that i repeat it:
The labor market is a market, it is regulated by Supply and Demand. Less supply (fewer workers) ==> higher prices (higher wages).
That is good for the workers, and it increases the quality-of-life. That is a true socioeconomic strategy.
Musk is a grifter who wants to breed cheap wage-slaves who would earn almost nothing and who would spend their lives in poverty. Expendable slaves. If the people have fewer children, that becomes less doable.
It's exactly why Republicans are so against abortion as well. Have as many babies as possible and dilute the labor market so wages go as low as possible.
As I mentioned elsewhere: Grist for the mill.
Grist for the mill.
Hey, maybe you could also introduce like an award for mothers with lots of children! Like a mother's cross. It could come in like 3 different tier and if you reach the highest, the Führer himself will visit you :)
