ableism and minimum wage
@Fidgetcetera @interneteh Paraprofessionals know they have what is essentially unlimited access to a vulnerable population that is either cognitively or through systematic oppression unable to properly advocate for their own rights. They also know that if it becomes a question of who is telling the truth about an allegation they will almost always be believed.
Corporations say sub minimum wage labor is the only reason they hire us. They lie.
I wish there was just like a anarchist approach to a lot of software. I just want some apps that aren't designed for profit, usually via ads. Like a cool recipe app or like something weird and small like that. We have the big things out of the way. I just want nice little no bs stuff to make my life easier.
ableism and minimum wage
So the state of Alaska decided to make it against the law to pay disabled folks less than minimum wage. There's a couple other states that did so as well. Maryland is one. In most states, disabled people can legally be paid below minimum wage
I was posting about this one and some guy who claimed to work with disabled people said "it's not about the money. If these people lose jobs because of this, they're going to lose the only socialization they have."
This seems like bullshit to me, no?
