Can confirm. Here in Canada, nobody works. We all sit at home and play video games instead. There’s no industry, no shops, no hospitals. Only video games.
Yeah, most people I know don’t have jobs! We just run extension cords between our igloos to power our video game machines. If it weren’t for them we could totally be like the States. 🤦🏻♂️😂
Can confirm, only video games in the UK too. Certainly not the 6th largest economy in the world worth £3.84 trillion. Nor a labour force with 74.9% in employment, that would be silly!
Norwegian living in Denmark. I moved from Norway because everyone was just gaming, but I wanted to go to gigs, so I moved. Turns out everyone games in Denmark all the time too! It must be why the Northern European countries score so high in the happiness rating: all we do is game all day. It’s not like these countries have any money, especially Norway.
Wait, isn’t Norway mostly rich from oil?
I’m glad they use it for the good of its citizens, but it’s kinda fucking the rest of us.
Extremely rich on oil.
sounds nice tbh
Exactly.
Even before computers, we Indians were happily playing Chess until Mughals invaded us.
And then we showed them Chess, got them hooked, and then Brits invaded us.
I couldn’t possibly do both things!
Or, what if their healthcare continued to be free so they wouldn’t have an incentive to find a way to live on $700 month?
I know one of those young men playing video games, and he REALLY wants a job, but no matter how he works the math, the medication that keeps him alive costs more than what he’d make. So, his only choice is to budget around permanent poverty or die.
They’d have to have free healthcare in the first place…
This is absurd, considering Mike Johnson doesn’t work for a living. None of these government officials do anything worthwhile but still get paid for it.
It’s hard being that evil
Pays well too. The price of their morality for a lifetime of pay and free healthcare. Because let’s face it, these idiots get FEHB healthcare for life for being in congress because they made it so. They get a salary AFTER they served too, after Min 5 years, but they get 80% of their salary as part of a pension. Insane nonsense if you stay for 20 years compared to what we get.
That does make sense considering every other developed country has free healthcare and literally 100% of their young men spend every waking hour playing video games.
It does make sense because I break my legs regularly playing video games, putting a huge strain on public healthcare.
You’re probably holding your controller wrong.
His mouse pad must be broken.
It also makes sense considering I eat Prozac for dinner and live under a shelter made of BandAids
He has no idea what the medicare requirements are, does he?
His job is to spread lies and fear, so no reason for him to say something different, if he would know reality…
…says guy who gets free healthcare and is paid by a public who he does nothing good for and billionaires who bribe him to hurt the public.
says some rich asshole who probably hasn’t done real work a day in his life, likely living off dividends and bribe money
And the healthcare Congress provides.
working where exactly? working on a farm that will pay you minimum wage, if that? oh OH I know working in the tech sector where it’s now and has been for the past couple years an absolute nightmare to find a job in.
There are NO jobs out there that will pay for the current cost of living and the ones that COULD aren’t hiring, and if anything, are laying people off. And yeah, these unemployed young men are TOTALLY playing videogames that now cost $80 a pop paid via a job they don’t have.
BTW Steam Sumner sale is going on right now, Robocop for 5 bucks for the win! Id buy that for 5 dollars.
Btw is $80 actually up from the oughts and 10s? I’ve had $80 as the price for the latest AAA game in my head forever and am continually surprised it hasn’t changed.
Are you from canada?
Yes but to be clear, I was joking.
U ok?
I’m fine, are you?
He is.
Are you?
Videogames are the cheapest and most durable form of entertainment, ideal qualities when you don’t have a job and resources to keep you busy. This fucker wants people to never escape being in misery.
The goal is to get those “young men” out there in the job market struggling to make ends meet day after day so their boss can buy his second vacation home and new yacht. In the meantime Republicans will point to some group or minority as the cause of their woes. It’s a win, win for them.
Translated: Adults 18 to 25 are using there parents healthcare and are not paying for the crappiest healthcare being offered at their first jobs.
Lmfao what free healthcare?
Seriously. I’d love some free healthcare.
I’d probably be able to be more functional if I had proper healthcare.
This whole thing of “Free healthcare = leeches” is fucking insulting.
Free healthcare?
The problem is that voters are so damn stupid that someone can make a statement like this without being interrogated.
I’d be happy to oblige them. Good call.
So, they want to take away healthcare young men don’t have so they’ll get jobs that don’t exist. Sounds like a conservative plan.
The jobs do exist, and I’m pretty sure the young men are working them, but the jobs also kinda suck.
What free healthcare?
Young men have to jump through the most hoops to get state level health insurance.
