Actually yes. I know several dairies that are energy independent, just due to funneling the manure into a capped digesting pond with a methane powered turbine sitting on top.
Not for the past 25 years, but I have friends that still do. I had been working minimum wage since the 1980s until I graduated from college and started my unstable career. I bettered my skills and job hopped instead of continually begging for more hours.
Friends in their 70s and 80s who have to thanks to the stock market meltdown of 2007. I know of entire industries that work full time minimum wage- one big one here in Oregon is gas station attendants, the ultimate fallback position.
The real problem being that there is zero reason to pay more to anybody with RARE skills. Those are minimum skills, and only deserve a minimum wage, yet they are the best most people have to offer.
I find it very interesting that I've read articles on both sides of the fence from a single study. Both proof that raising minimum wage doesn't cost jobs and proof that raising minimum wage DOES cost scheduled hours. Perhaps they are both right.
Nah, the only REAL difference is that your local Whole Foods, in addition to providing a unique shopping experience for idiot hippies who believe in homeopathy, will now be an Amazon Prime Drop for those times when a 2 hour delivery window is not short enough.
Willing to bet that $10/lb olive bar is pretty darn profitable too. A pound of olives, of any variety, is NEVER anywhere close to that expensive, even after fermenting and marinating.

I think somebody failed to notice that this has been the default behavior of Americans for the past 30 years.
How about you do not do business with dirty communists, you traitor
If Mozilla is going to support terrorism, I see no reason to buy their inferior terrorist software
These 10 degrees are pretty much tickets to the middle class in 2017:

Depends what your skilled associate's degree is in.
Worse than that, they spent how much on a CLIENT SIDE version of a basic MAC Address/Tracert sniffer?
Will raise that without compromising user experience- by targeting the advertising better. Especially real life community groups.

Make it a function of maximum compensation, and watch how fast the maximum compensation grows!
What raises? Businesses stopped giving raises back in the 1970s. I have to job hop to get a raise.

When there are jokers to the left and thieves to the right, sometimes the only place to be is along the watchtower.

All I am interested in is a Linux based firmware upgrade for my Prius.
Replace it yourself at home and there's no labor charge.
Maybe not you, but anybody who has read the Foxfire books should do just fine.
I was usually the queer getting smeared too, and it taught me to stay on my feet regardless of pain.
That skill 30 years later helped greatly in a mugging incident.

When you get a CFO who is more interested in cost cutting than innovation, experiments like IoT that have yet to see profitability get shut down.
The next round of layoffs is going to be all the IoT groups.
The whole idea of logical argumentation became hate speech a long time ago.
90s? Try 70s. Which is why it is so insane that python wants to be thought of as a modern programming language.
I don't remember anybody shooting up the Democrat's congressional baseball team to prevent free speech.
Thus my suggestion that we'd be happier as a collection of semi-autonomous monocultural villages than as a One-Size-Fits-None multicultural Republic.
