Sell by and use by dates are guidelines that are considered law in many countries. There's no real health science behind it as most foods are absolutely fine until opened. Reduced sticker shopping is perfectly fine if you eat or freeze the product. If supermarkets don't sell it all they should be legally required, as in France, to donate it to food banks and shelters.

It does lead to some funny euphemisms tho, like "unsubscribed from life".

It’s honestly really depressing what people have to do to simply LIVE nowadays

Every job should have a wage high enough that just one person working that job can support a family (food, housing, clothing, childcare, etc) without having to work multiple jobs!

Businesses should not be able to make campaign donations, no exceptions.

Never being able to own anything online. Used to be, you paid for it once and it was yours. Now you can’t do that— and you’re paying the same amount every year that you used to pay to buy it and permanently own it outright.

The anti-LGBTQ activism reminds me of the Satanic Panic 40 years ago, it is a big nothing burger but real people are getting hurt

It's illegal to collect rainwater? That's completely screwed up.

Homelessness is a complicated matter, though, and is not always caused by not having money. Some people make themselves homeless, while others have become homeless based on their lifestyle and consequences. There are people out there who want to be homeless. They don't view paying rent, having their own home to go to every night as a worthy thing.

I know of one billionaire that indeed did earn it, by providing joy to millions. Sir Paul McCartney! There may be a FEW others. I don't THINK Paul got his riches by exploiting the lower classes and stepping on the necks of others in a mad rush for cash like most billionaires. I hope I am right!

And some mpeople actively ranting about "If you block ads the internet will die, all your favorite content makers will starve and there will be no fun in the world".

Credit Scores are a zero sum game. If you use your card you'll get dinged on your credit score. If you don't use your card you'll get dinged on your credit score. Even if you pay your bill on time you'll get dinged on your credit score.

Voodoo economics.

I've never understood why prostitution is illegal, particularly since there is no longer a need to increase the population for the species to survive, and contraception is so easily available.

Sadly old as civilisation...I heard there is a big hill in Roma, that is in fact made of Antique Roma trash: broken amphoras etc...

Not just American, but burial in general. Why do we bury the dead? What an utter waste of space.

I remember when Obama was first running for President, and the commentary was, "He thinks he's better than us." He's running for President. He SHOULD be better than us!!

Or 40+ hours work week, or no maternity leave.

Healthcare should be, if not free, at least affordable. Basic preventive care should be free, as well as emergency care. When over 500,000 people in your country go bankrupt every year due to medical bills, and especially when 3/4 of them HAD HEALTH INSURANCE, that's f---ed up.

I wrote a post a few months ago when i worked on a "reality TV" show. I can 100% confirm that it is all fake as f*k. If you were behind the scenes like me you wouldn't/couldn't keep a straight face of how these "actors" "work"!! I can't mention too much but......they have to learn their lines and have to hate/love certain people on the show. Then when the cameras are turned off it's like.....sup dude/girl. Then they go off to stay with their boyfriends/girlfriends in the hotel. Fake as f*k

Wow, great illusion !

US-only

These poor cows. I'm not a vegetarian nor vegan, but I can't stand how little consideration of the live animals there is in the farming industry. They're not thought of as living souls. Just a commodity, money and food machine.

Debt for a mortgage or car has been normal a long time. However, I do not know a single person under the age of 35 that does not have large student loan debt, credit card debt, or both.

The EU has made the mandatory use of non-essential cookies illegal. When will the US catch up, I wonder?

Or advertising it as free, but forgetting to mention it’s only free during the initial trial period. If it was truly 100% free, they wouldn’t be asking for your credit card number when you sign up.

The obscene American healthcare system in general !

Flipping a bird in the camera is probably also legal.

Amen !

Caring about five ultra-rich people who perished in a submersible more than 500+ refugees who perished when their boat capsized. And they were already suffering horrific conditions before the capsizing, after paying a fat price to escape.

War is pointless. Everybody loses and it worsens the situation

Being obese is bad. It’s not fatphobic its a fact. It’s bad for your health and it needs to stop being normalised.

Please remember, in some countries having a single job is amazing !

My "favorite" are the security cameras that point right at debit card reader. So anyone who has access to the video can see your pin.

I know my worth and don't care what others think. But I'm old.
