… But we do have one… It’s just very… Minimal.

Minimum should mean minimum amount necessary to live a (dignified) life, not simply the minimum amount.

Any minimum wage should be pegged to a cost of living index.

Let’s call it “livable minimum wage” or this discussion will never end.

Switzerland doesn’t have a minimum wage either, but the problems aren’t as dire (yet). Several cantons have however now introduced minimum wages and these are inflation adjusted, so a lot more future proof. Also they don’t need to be renegotiated again and again as the law doesn’t expire. I only see them disappear if we get a nationwide solution that replaces the local ones. But I agree with you: They are now set by the legislature and arbitrary and they should be informed with NGO data.

I’m in the US so I tip people who rely on tips to make it by in this capitalist dystopia, like waitstaff. That’s fucking it. Anyone else asking for a tip can get rekt.

Why is this even an issue? Are people actually tipping everyone now? Stop it! Don’t let people manipulate you and keep your money.

The machines should tip the customer for doing job well. After all, it’s him doing the work cashier typically does.

This is why every item gets it’s own bag when I’m using self checkout (the bags are useful to me). They gotta pay some kind of tax for my service
