Lyft and Uber say they will leave Minneapolis if the mayor signs a minimum wage bill for drivers::Lyft and Uber threatened to stop doing business in Minneapolis after the city council adopted a new rule Thursday that would set a minimum wage for rideshare drivers.
It’s weird that you think someone making more than 30-35% of the country is “poor”
You’ll forgive me for not putting much stock in your “total guess” when you believe as you do.
That is poor lmao, and that’s not a good thing
Tell me you have rich parents without telling me you have rich parents.
One parent was disabled the other made the amount listed above, I was pretty damn poor, try again
Tell me you expect people to pretend they’re not poor in order to validate exploitative practices of a massive corporation without telling me you’re a centrist.
Lmao
Yup. Alot of poor people in this country… It’s been getting worse.
Too bad you don’t know how those averages were calculated. Would have been interesting
A) it’s fun how I can tell you’re from a wealthy family
B) all averages are calculated the same way. That’s what “average” means. It’s literally a method of calculation.
I’m sorry the education system has failed you so much. https://www.dummies.com/article/academics-the-arts/math/pre-algebra/the-three-types-of-average-median-mode-and-mean-168773/
If I’d meant median or mode I would have used those words. Average is equivalent to mean.
Your link even says this, if you’d bothered to read it.
Yes. The use of the mean as the average is why you can’t tell without looking at the data set if the average of $500 is 1000 people all making around $500 or 500 people making near nothing while the other 500 are making close to $1000 or 750 are making near nothing and 250 making close to $2000, etc…
In this case the mode gives you a more relevant data set. That’s probably not what they’re using though.
The best would probably a range of modes and the quantity of people in each bucket
Yep that is how jobs work
People are so poor nowadays that saying somebody’s from a wealthy family has become an insult.
No it’s just calling out the “rich progressive savior” mindset, and it’s always been derogatory.
It’s sure neat how when centrists can no longer defend exploitative labor practices, they attack the person they’re talking to. Usually it’s with “You don’t understand how anything works” or “I assume you’re young and therefore wrong.” “I assume you have money and are therefore wrong” is a new one.
He’s wrong without his money, his money just informed me of why he is wrong in this particular way.
