Wee-Bey Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 These guys get paid about $2 an hour to fight those fires. They're also barred from becoming firefighters after their sentence is finished, because they're ex cons. Neolib capitalism working at peak efficiency. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theroadlesstravelled Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 The years of inability to recruit professional firefighters in California is more proof that entrenched left wing governments cannot properly govern, but the inmates are not forced. They know the risk and the terrible terms but volunteer anyway and it's doing them a disservice to suggest otherwise. "I could be sitting behind the [prison] wall right now, dealing with all the drama that that entails, or I could be out here helping save this part of California because of this disaster," former inmate firefighter Daniel Erickson told NPR last year. -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which left wing government would that be? And it’s still slave labour, whether it be fire fighting or making car parts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 The most consistent trait of Biden’s that the DNC seems to be focusing on is his ability to deliver a great eulogy which feels a little too on the nose for America’s decline on the world stage 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, that’s the first time I’ve ever seen him say anything vaguely humorous. It’s hardly hilarious, but anyone taking that at face value needs to take a look at themselves. Of all his myriad oratory f**k ups, that’s very, very low down the list. Edited August 21, 2020 by Savage Henry 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wee-Bey Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Prison labour in use since WW2, climate change causing fires in greater numbers and intensity, private fire crews hindering state operations, rich people building houses on ground as flame retardant as a 1980's shellsuit. You: ah you see, this is why left wing governments are bad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 As Trump says, if they just swept the forest and kept it as tidy as God intended the fires wouldn't spread. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Cerberus's low effort trolling still isn't the worst take on this page, it's Savage claiming Trump hasn't said anything funny. Is he forgetting this from earlier this year? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 That's one of those freakish latex sex dolls, surely. Until evidence emerges that it can move and has a soul, I'm saying that's Kenny Miller taking the piss. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishBhoy Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 I would love to be alive to see how history looks back on this period of time; to see how they reflect on Trumps presidency and the general chaos thats going on in our lifetime. Learning about the first and Second World War, I always imagined nothing would overshadow events such as those, but I think 2020 is going to run it close. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
