So what's your take? I think everybody should stop going to bars and restaurants. 100% disagree. Why? I don't know, we want them to exist. You go to, uh, fast food places every once in a while. I go to fast food places and you feel bad when you go, right? 'Cause you know that they're not like, they're getting minimum wage and they're not treating them right. Well, every restaurant and bar you go to pays people less than minimum wage. So what are we supposed to do, shut them all down? Only go to bars and restaurants where they pay for people's insurance? How the hell do we find those places? Is there a map or something? Start talking to the people that work at these places. Go, "Hey, what, you know, do you get treated fair by your employer?" And if they go no, they can suck, then don't go there anymore.
So we're doing activism? Yeah.
So do you work at a bar or restaurant? I do.
Do you get health insurance? I do get health insurance. Oh, I don't have insurance. What, what's Anthony doing? Anthony, this does not have any benefits. Uh, but we're all hanging out. That's sad. We're hanging out. It's okay.
