That’s just salaried folks though. The vast majority of american workers are hourly or contractors. Per the Dept of Labor’s own site:

The Wage and Hour Division is dedicated to protecting and enhancing the welfare of the nation’s workforce with a focus on low-wage, underserved workers. In fiscal year 2023, we successfully recovered over $274 million in back wages and damages for more than 163,000 workers nationwide.

Wage theft is when employers don’t properly pay their employees and is a HUGE problem because it isn’t always out of malevolence, it can be as simple as the time clock not properly computing overtime, etc.

If you don’t think that $274 million is large amount, think about how the vast majority of these things never get reported to the authorities; that number should be higher.

This, I’ve known people who got knocks on their door by the FBI and SS for posting dumb shit they weren’t serious about as a “joke.” They take that shit seriously I guess only when its lone wolves that can’t do as much damage and not people rich enough to fund a small army.

Surprised it hasn’t been mentioned, but Electric Vehicles in general. I remember wishing for them to be a thing when I used to drive my family’s gas-guzzling vehicles. If you look outside of Tesla, there are plenty of options even affordable ones, it might Leaf you in disbelief.

Yes! I grew up with Warhammer, and I can’t tell you how many times as a teen I wished I could just make my own minis, or print something specific to add on while kitbashing.

Fast forward to today and I have a resin printer, unfortunately my free time is a bit less than it was 20 years ago so it doesn’t see as much use as I’d like. God I feel old.

Animal services will seek felony animal cruelty charges upon submitting its findings to the Riverside county district attorney’s office, officials said.

Most important part left out of the description. Let’s hope the charges stick.

^This. I can tell every time my pc updates by the fact that nothing ever works correctly anymore.

Literally just downloaded video drivers yesterday due to this, and I have the vast majority of auto updates turned off for windows… Every update moves me closer to switching Os entirely.

This is the Satanic Temple, very different organization that only ever brings itself into the picture when Christians are trying to ram religion down people’s throats.

The way this is presented by OP can be seen as misleading by implying it was recent.

I am all for making sure everyone knows how horrible he is, however do it correctly by giving context in the title. (Not that it makes it any less despicable if it happened years ago vs yesterday!)

Lol ikr? Looking at her track record of mass incarceration(while attorney general), which disproportionately affected other POC like her, and yet she never batt an eye because it was more about career than actually helping her community.

Idk about your state, but mine basically forces you to register for the selective services to even get a license/learner’s permit

§ 46.2-221.1. Registration with Selective Service required for issuance of learner’s permits, driver’s licenses, commercial driver’s licenses, and special identification cards to certain applicants.

A. Every male applicant for a learner’s permit, driver’s license, commercial driver’s license, special identification card, or renewal of any such permit, license, or card who is less than twenty-six years old and is either a citizen of the United States or an immigrant shall, at the time of his application, be registered in compliance with the requirement of section 3 of the Military Selective Service Act, 50 U.S.C. § 3801 et seq

Because the military has shown how fond of them they are even when they are truly heroes aka Desmond Doss’ story…
