Reminds me of the time the Washington Post said Bernie was being misleading when he made a statement they agreed was true:
“Millions of Americans are forced to work two or three jobs just to survive.”
— Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.)
Bureau of Labor Statistics data shows that nearly 8 million people hold more than one job. But most of those extra jobs are part time, not full time. And the “millions” of people amount to just 5 percent of Americans with jobs. So that means 95 percent of workers are not working two or three jobs “just to survive,” making this a misleading statement.
If by full time you mean the American definition of 40 hours, then you can do it by working 80 hours a week divided by the number of days a week you work. So either by working 11.42 hours 7 days a week or working 13.3 hours 6 days a week or working 16 hours a day 5 days a week, or working 20 hours, 4 days a week. It’s impossible at 3 or fewer days a week because you exceed the physical limit of 24 hours a day. To quote Marx in Value, Price and Profit:
[…] the length of the working day is also limited by ultimate, although very elastic boundaries. Its ultimate limit is given by the physical force of the labouring man. If the daily exhaustion of his vital forces exceeds a certain degree, it cannot be exerted anew, day by day. However, as I said, this limit is very elastic. A quick succession of unhealthy and short-lived generations will keep the labour market as well supplied as a series of vigorous and long-lived generations.
Reminds me of the time the Washington Post said Bernie was being misleading when he made a statement they agreed was true:
What an insane paragraph. They break down each word and still refute nothing or prove any points
how can someone have two fulltime jobs?
