Simple solution: Ask a homeless person who is pitching a tent near your store if you will pay them $50 for some of that gooood fent, meth, or tranq, if they would be willing to put your store sign on the side of their tent

There you go, problem solved. Their tents can’t be touched, now your sign can’t be touched

Oh wait, you probably won’t have many more customers because that homeless dude is going to be shitting, peeing, and maybe having a wank sometimes within 30 yards of the store

Ah well, you just screwed then

This is why France tried the 4 day work week like 20 years ago. The problem is "skyscraper effect." Top tier countries are pretty darn close already to labor unsustainability. Not there yet, but it like the Balrog: you know its awakened.

By "labor unsustainability" I mean the equation of money-for-work, labor, will start to need increased "subsidy" in order for the entire system of "I must work" to remain politically viable as a social contract.

All kinds of subsidies are already in play, to make the wages the pure market can get you enough to keep you sane. From top to bottom, there is often some subsidy in some form, that helps the reality of the market wage not tilt workers toward going nuts. Even Ruch people get them. Because my theory is, everyone is about to go nuts. It's America. Apex country of apex predator. The higher the fewer.

At a certain point, in the US and other top tier countries, the pointlessness of labor will start to break through. labor is needed, but not so many hours, and so, where's my means to live? At this point, we reach the inflection point called, the obsolescence of labor.

That will hit harder and covid really accelerated the "mass consciousness" of how silly we are, going so nuts over money because my god she's about to blow. Lol. No she's not.

The "skyscraper effect" is that while nations like the US can transition to post-labor based political societies, billions of people in other countries are still about 100 years before they reach this point. These will be massive social changes.

Will these changes in the top floors cause the whole tower to sway and collapse?

Jet fuel might not melt steel beams, but this could.
You a will really hate me butt strict population control will lead to a labor shortage which would fix all our little red wagons nicely.

White people afraid of people on streets. Oh lord, really? Say it ain't so, Joe!

Mao said, the true revolutionary swims among the people like a fish in the ocean. Mao was pretty nuts by the time that he got to his no-bathing stage but he knew how to hustle.

All these people, they just made the Spock-with-a-beard version of your decision. They can't handle your world and you can't handle theirs, but, as Se01; Ep27 "The Alternative Factor" proves, it's basically all ya'll's fault, you get it?

Sadre continuing to post as if in the midst of a meth bender.

Nobody is afraid of people on the streets exactly, it's more just incredibly sad and depressing.

I dated a girl who was an opioid addict for 6 years. Now she's dead. It's not real amusing what is being allowed to happen to these people.

I remember I was driving to work a few months ago and parked at a crossroads at a concrete bridge underpass

I noticed a dirty homeless woman with her shopping cart full of stuff camped out under the bridge, and as soon as I parked to make my left turn waiting on the light, she stood up

Before I could worry if she was going to come over and try to hassle me for money, she instead took only 4 steps to the right of her camp, pulled down her pants, and took a hearty shit for someone who isn't getting a lot of food

I remember thinking, you want to smell that next to you for the rest of the day, or however long you stay in your camp? Then thinking that the shit log was only like 2 feet from a sidewalk as well

Fuckin nasty. If I had to pick the one thing I personally dislike most about the homeless, it'll have to be the human shit

Would be worse under republicans. Simply for the fact the programs to get them off the street and help them; get axed to provide further tax relief for the rich.

If you bring up California you haven't seen Texas: ( 44.05 percent of residents suffer the same way.)
