Strawman. Unskilled /= low pay. High supply of workers/candidates vs. demand is what makes the pay low.

There are plenty unskilled jobs that are relatively well paid because, for whatever reason, not enough people want to do them. Painter/Decorator for example, how hard is it to paint a wall.

Trades is a good example. Plumbers and electricians are generally paid quite well. Specialist industrial trades, welders, etc. can be paid amazingly well.

Although so can grass cutters, pool boys and painters and they seem pretty unskilled to me.

Are you confusing farmers with farm labourers? One runs a highly specialist business, one just needs to pick strawberries.

Or pilots, or surgeons. I mean anyone could have a decent attempt at doing ANY job

If you pay to own a movie then yes, you should be allowed to make copies of it and keep it forever, even if the seller goes bankrupt in future. You are paying to own the movie.

If you subscribe to Netflix you are not paying to own the content, you are paying for access to their content. Therefore you cannot legally download a movie from Netflix and keep a copy forever.

However, if Netflix don’t make it possible to buy their unique content for permanent ownership, then piracy is the inevitable result and they should address that.

But let’s be honest here, none of you are intending to buy anything.

I see this often. Does this work better than just washing again with tablets? Or even just a water wash?
