Well Canada just uses ~~indentured servants~~ temporary foreign workers for places like McDonald's so we are not really without sin.

But getting paid in pre paid cards is wild.

Marines would get wrecked in a long term occupation on us soil. It is just completely counter to their skill set.

I used to list things rounded up a bit just for that. If I list something for $500 then I likely would take $400 for it. But when someone walks up to my house loads the thing in their truck and then knocks on my door and tries to force a $20 into my hand to buy the thing..... Yeah fuck that.

No that is what you are missing, there is a bunch of people who do nothing but gaslight to get things for next to nothing then resell later.

For example I sold a car last year for $1500, I could have maybe got more but eh that was fine. I know what the market price is more or less but I when I listed it I got about 50 offers under $100, keep in mind I could scrap it for $300.

This is a scam that has come up from online listing, these people put bullshit offers in across many many listings and some even try to threaten and trick.

Denmark raises retirement age to 70 — the highest in Europe (www.cnn.com)

Denmark is set to have the highest retirement age in Europe, after lawmakers voted to raise it to 70.

Parliamentarians passed a bill mandating the rise on Thursday, with 81 votes in favor and 21 against.

The new law will apply to people born after December 31, 1970. The current retirement age is 67 on average, but it can go up to 69 for those born on January 1, 1967, or later.

The rise is needed in order to be able to “afford proper welfare for future generations,” employment minister Ane Halsboe-Jørgensen said in a press release Thursday.

Couple sentenced to hundreds of years in prison for forcing adopted Black children to work as 'slaves' (www.nbcnews.com)

Summary

A West Virginia couple, Jeanne Kay Whitefeather and Donald Lantz, received prison sentences of 215 and 160 years, respectively, for forcing their five adopted Black children into slave labor.

Authorities discovered the abuse after a welfare check revealed children locked in a shed without water or sanitation.

The couple, charged with human trafficking, child neglect, and forced labor, targeted the children because of their race.

The court ordered them to pay $280,000 in restitution each.
