Bar Rescue Host and Laura Ingraham Discuss Cutting Unemployment Aid to Make Workers "Hungry" Like an

[douglas9]

Jon Taffer, the host of the reality show Bar Rescue, has got a plan to stop the ongoing crisis of people not wanting to work crap jobs for low pay in the restaurant and service industry—turn workers into “hungry dog[s].”

Laura Ingraham: "What if we just cut off the unemployment? Hunger is a pretty powerful thing."

Speaking to Laura Ingraham on Fox News, Taffer—a Nightclub Hall of Fame inductee!—jumped off the idea of slashing unemployment benefits (part of a package of aid in response to COVID-19 that brought about a record drop in poverty) as an incentive to, as Ingraham noted, make people “hungry.”

Ingraham backtracked and said not “physical hunger,” without clarifying what else she could mean.

1. Abused dogs will attack

and Laura and Jon make prime targets

[SWBTATTReg]

2. These are American citizens that these two scumbags are saying that the hungry dogs should...

be released upon. The American citizens are simply wanting better pay, and that is it. And this is the is PATHETIC and disgusting logic that these two morons come up with to resolve these so claimed labor shortages? This is beyond belief.

3. Feudal system is what they are talking about.

[LiberatedUSA]

4. Are you sure this wasn't...

…part of the last Purge movie script?

[Hekate]

5. There's a thing called wage-slavery. You get paid all right, but never enough to feed your kids...

…or put a roof over your head. Never enough. You scramble every day until you die of exhaustion or some preventable disease.

Laura Ingraham and her ilk are the lowest dregs of the human race.

I got nothing else.

6. Nightclub Hall of Fame Inductee?! Huh.

I wonder how I can get nominated

[Bristlecone]

7. My last bar tab before I quit drinking was about $2000

I qualify.

8. "Bar Rescue" is a fake.

It looks scripted, and according to people who worked on the show, it is.

9. Sorry, but this thread is useless

WITHOUT A LIST OF ADVERTISERS FOR "BAR RESCUE" THAT I CAN BOYCOTT

It's way past time to use our economic power to bankrupt these Asspickle.

Same with hate radio. There should not be a single advertiser on the Zombie Rush, Hannity, or any of the hundred cookie-cutter propagandist, that is not receiving 1,000 calls a day from folks explaining that they won't "spend one thin dime" at their company as long as they advertise on radio stations, or affiliates, that broadcast racism and hate.

It's NOT "just entertainment".

It's NOT "just fun and games"

It's NOT "harmless"

It's time to fight these fucksticks with the ONLY weapon they understand and respect...MONEY

Before you spend one ducking penny on anything, find out what kind of hatred and racist politicians the company is funding.

If it's funding the Retrumplicans Party shitshow, take your business elsewhere, and make sure they know why.

[bahboo]

10. I would watch his show when slumming....no more...

fuck this guy....

[East-A-Squared]

11. And they wonder why restaurants can't find workers. Slaveowner mentality.
