2·6 days agoWhy are they so reliant on tips instead of the employer paying them? How much do they earn ONLY being paid by their employer after taxes? Consider that 7.25 USD an hour is before tax, what’s their take home money?

9·20 days agoShirō Ishii (specialist and microbiologist in Unit 731 who is also in the Japanese army) was granted immunity by the allies in exchange for extensive data, research reports, and details regarding their human experiments and biological weapons programs towards the Americans. US military intelligence officials wanted exclusive access to the biological warfare data desiring to keep it out of the hands of the Soviets. He literally got away with endorsing torture towards people.

41·20 days agoIt’s conditioned by the Nazis via indoctrinating Germans to hate minorities (even kids were made to join the Hitler Youth) at that time, or true apathy. Unless they were the ones who are being treated the same way by someone else. Like when the Soviets managed to arrive during the latter years of the war, they did mistreat those people (even after the war).

Most countries including the US impose income tax (so no matter where you go, it’s the same since income tax exists in a lot of countries except a few like UAE, Monaco, Bahamas). But, minimum wages are different by country: it’s Fr. 25 ($30) per hour in Geneva (Switzerland) while it’s $2.13 per hour in Texas (USA).
Taxes deducted from one’s paycheck is by definition used to fund welfare, roads, schools, health care, etc. as a nation’s government need money for maintaning public infrastructure. How else do you have the highway (interstate) or how do hospitals stay operational? These things require government funding.
Do YOU think paying high taxes are worth funding schools, hospitals, roads in the US considering their condition? (Since I last heard they’re in rough condition in some areas as if they’ve been neglected).
