Uber's restaurant delivery business "Eats" hit $6 billion in bookings earlier this year, growing over 200%, quickly becoming a crown jewel for the unlicensed taxi company.
People who live in countries that are prosperous are lucky to have been born there it's true but the society that produced those conditions is a result of centuries of imperialism and human exploitation

Eugenics has nothing at all to do with this and simply serves to highlight your leftist idealogy and real point.
You want poor people to have fewer babies so you can go on using as much resources as their entire extended families. Just be honest with your inner elitist, eugenicist, prick self.
Employers never let their employees work for a competitor while still working for them.
If by "never" you somehow autocorrected from "all the time", then yes. Plenty of people work for McDonalds and Subway, Wal-Mart and Target, bootlicker.
If you're an independent contractor, you negotiated your own rate. Which no Uber driver can do. Which means your analogy falls apart before it gets out of the gate.
For the same reason so many shit all over the idea of unions: because they're elitist snowflakes who think they're in the top.01% of workers, are compensated accordingly, and any gubbmit interference or union would get in the way of that.
That they are serfs kissing the asses of their feudal lords for a pat on the head never occurs to them.
Says the guy with the only connection between his self-taught CCNA certification and a master's degree being $5k and the excrement between his ears. According to the guy's own wording.
For the hard of reading, that one scene trashed four decades of established space combat; it's not nitpicking the hue of Laura Dern's hairdo.
Fin was an irrational bitch in the first movie and he was one in the second.
Oh yeah, SO irrational to say "hey my job is done here I'm out" a la Han Solo in the first movie. Only Han had his name on the shit list of one crime lord, not the whole Empire.
I really don't care if you disagree with me because that's just how it was.
Neat thing about facts is they don't give a shit whether or not dipshits believe in them. And it's a simple fact that someone who defects, knowing it means eventual almost-certain death, is not a coward.
Wait so now TOS having the force of law is a good thing? I don't care for police using fake accounts, or police in general as they exist now, but that's a terrible idea for which the problems should be manifest.
It's holding officials to the same standards they use for us plebs. Just ask Aaron Swartz.
As much as I hate government regulation and big government
Tell me about it! It just gets my goat every time I drive through Minneapolis without having one of the bridges collapse underneath me, that I can't buy cough syrup with formaldehyde anymore, toys with lead paint, a house where the wiring wont burn it all down within ten years after purchase - it's so unfair!
For example, both of Obama's successful campaigns (and many successful Democrat campaigns during those years) had lots of big talk about immigration reform. Funny thing is that during the time the Democrats had the Congress and the White House, nothing was done.
Oh, something happened alright - Obama took INS, a tiny program under Bush and expanded it by 4,000% into the brutal deportation system we have today, expelling more immigrants than all previous presidents combined. That's why if I ever meet John Leguizamo, I'll ask him "head or gut", then kick him in the balls after punching both.
Interestingly, if you go back to Obama's campaign speeches, especially from his first campaign, he actually talked quite a bit about "reigning in out of control spending in Washington." I don't think he actually even made an attempt in that regard.
Pretty much everything the guy ever campaigned on was a lie. It's funny watching conservatives hate on Obama, since he was a right-wing freakshow for eight straight years.
Because that's what opposition to nuclear power does - it supports coal. Whether you mean it or not, all your scaremongering about nuclear power only helps the coal industry and no one else.
The fact that wind and solar are cheaper than coal, and have been for years, makes bad liars out of nuclear apologists on this one. And that's even allowing coal to externalize its costs.
There are plenty of places where no one will ever live in 7000 years. We're already living in fucked up places and people don't seem to mind. Nuclear would make energy related fucked up places fewer in number.
Riiiight. You guys want to replace coal with nuclear and use it for expanded power needs, but think all the plants can be built in the Sahara or Siberia? Build storage facilities for waste that will last 10,000 years while posing no risk of leaks into soil and groundwater?
And someone who dies in a uranium mining accident is still dead - but that's not a failure of nuclear power itself. See again the point of evacuation zones: wind and solar farms don't have them, because there's no risk of meltdown.
Other than all the carbon used to mine and refine ore, and the massive amounts of concrete used for cooling towers and cooling ponds, etc.
its first commercial iteration being several orders of magnitude safer than one "renewables"
FTFY. Hydro is the champ of casualties - but after the flood waters recede, you can start rebuilding immediately. As opposed to a nuke meltdown, which can render an area uninhabitable for 20,000 years a la Chernobyl. And the worst dam failures happened due a once-in-two-thousand-years disaster in Typhoon Ninja. Fukushima couldn't handle a once-in-a-thousand-years earthquake/tsunami.
Any opposition against nuclear is 100% based on the fact the cost and risk of nuclear power makes it utterly unjustifiable
The amount of toxic waste that is actually created is miniscule for the amount of energy we get from it. Who cares if it lingers for tens of thousands of years, when it can be kept in a small area?
You'd care plenty, if people fucked up the place you live 7,000 years ago with radioactive waste. Nuclear power is unjustifiable.
And yet coal-ash disasters can destroy tons of square miles
What is it with nuke fans pretending that opposition to nuclear power means loving coal? Besides, coal power plants don't have evacuation plans for people living within 2, 10, or even 50 miles because there's no chance of meltdown.
And yet the fact is, the per-terawatt-hour death rate from nuclear is lower than for any power source -- lower than wind, lower than rooftop solar, lower than hydroelectric, lower than biomass, lower than natural gas, lower than oil, and lower than coal.
If an electrician slips and falls to his death while performing maintenance on a nuclear cooling tower, would you say that fatality was due to nuclear power? Of course not, you'd say that was an industrial accident. Same as if that electrician's brother slips and falls to his death while performing maintenance on a wind turbine.
When a wind farm produces a deadly tornado, or a solar farm turns in an Archimedes death ray, let us know. And no other power source has the chance for such devastation that each of its generators has an evacuation zone for everyone within a ten mile radius.
It isn't 9 months of responsibility. It's 18 YEARS of responsibility
Months. If the mother gives the child up for adoption, her responsibility is measured in months, and if she has an abortion it's measured in weeks. Both of which she can do without the father's knowledge or consent.
When it comes to unwanted children, women have rights and choices, but men only have responsibilities. And that's sexist AF.
You just proved my point: those who want child support use the exact same arguments and reasoning as those who want to force women to carry parental responsibilities they didn't want for 9 months. In this case, the "keep your legs crossed" if you don't want the consequences canard, which applies to women as well as men.
The unions that accepted cut after cut after cut after cut after cut in pay and benefits, only to say "no mas" when it was clear the money was being Hoovered out for venture capitalists? GTFO, fascist.

So can you come up with a relevant analogy, given that babysitters work for an employer?

So you're just gonna leave out the previous $40,000+ for the undergrad degree, because masters fall from trees in your world.
No, I don't think you should - as massively full of shit as you are, you'll need some place to put it all.
Because workers can just materialize a decent wage with a decent boss through sheer force of will, asshat.

Which is a non-sequitur on the subject of child support and terminating parental rights.
Which is the exact argument pro-life people make - congrats on going back to square one.

Just another example of people using higher math to back up some crackpot idea, like claiming a Prius pollutes more than a Hummer.
