“There is Nothing good in life that cannot be turned to crap when Government gets involved” L.Star
Age and price controls always fail. These idiots don’t know economics or history. Somebody dig up dick Nixon.
It's just a lazy fee.
Age - Wage
Leftards are financial lunatics. They never learn. Look how the mandatory $20 minimum wage has had negative consequences for California. Facts be damned as these leftards plow ahead with their failed agendas.
Not a single social engineer on the planet has any idea what he’s doing.
Given today’s world, I don’t trust the safety of any prepared food that is delivered, especially by a 3rd party service. Food in sealed containers from a grocery store? Fine. Otherwise, nope. Especially if said delivery service finds out I am not a leftist and they are.
“Hi, I’m from the Government and I’m here to help.”
“I have to say, People, go get your own damn food!”
Especially at Walmart.....those people they have in the store filling the online orders are ALWAYS in the way.
When will they learn? There’s no such thing as ‘minimum wage’ when there’s a job nobody will do for the wage offered. The market fixes the rate. If it doesn’t work, for worker or consumer, then it stops.
Maybe everyone should be a blacksmith - then complain they don’t have work or income. Or, move on to something that is in demand, with people willing to pay - the market will sort it out.
This whole idea of ‘mandating a standard of living’ by wage manipulation never works.
Of course, the REAL reason they try is to run on a ‘I care platform’ - to get elected. So it’s really about power and money at the expense of low income folks.
Moral of the story...
governments should not be involved in running businesses or mandating anything from businesses or even suggesting anything to businesses. Safety regulations are okay, though that can go too far too.
Those in Gub’mint think they can run the Economy. Bah!!
In order to run an economy, one MUST micromanage what each entity does with such money, want or asset there is or might be. EVERY SINGLE ONE.
If you want something that “They” havent assigned you, the whole shebang will totter, and if you act on that want, it will fall. Fast or slow, it will fall.
Drivers will stop servicing those customers who are lousy tippers, which will mean fewer unproductive trips and higher average wages.
This “researcher” orders a $20 burrito “several times” a week?
What’s in a $20 burrito?
And why and how is this doofus ordering any at all?
Yeah, “l’m dumb” without saying so.
I said $35 for a cheese pizza was the problem. Get off your butt and go to the cafe to pick it up yourself!!
G D millenials anyway.
Did this guy say that he was buying $20.00 burritos and paying the previous fees and tipping to have it brought to him?
“”“It’s like double the price to order a $20 burrito now” compared with the pickup price, he said. “This is insane.””””
I wonder what he spends on eating every month?
The customers should not have to bid to get delivery, if you don’t want the job then quit.
The agenda is not failed if the losers keep “electing” them. Don’t forget, the DNC base = 10% of US population with IQ < 85. tying actions to consequences is not strong suit with these folks.
