If it passes, people who don’t opt out will get terminated for “performance”, and replaced with people who will take the lower wages. The “opportunity” will be played up by prospective employers, especially with the whole “no taxes on tips” nonsense.
Why stop at subminimum wage? They should give people the option to work for free as, what do you call that again? Oh yeah, slaves. Republicans like the idea of those, right?
No need to do that, they can alresdy put you in prisonon some bogus charge and make you do
free labour…forced labour… slavery.The datacenters won’t build themselves you know. Those billionaires are too poor to pay labor, so in prison you go, and you better work hard or it’s the can for you.
