TL;DR: No thank you, I will keep the current arrangement unless you pay me a very large bonus to sign this at-will contract. Hi folks, I am a newly licensed attorney. I saw a job posting for a business law attorney for a brand new law firm offering $184k/yr (~$90/hr full time).

Now, why do we need SHPs and how can they operate as socialist when it’s wrong to make a living off of things that are necessary to life? First, it’s not wrong to make a living off of things like food, water, healthcare, etc. This is a lie that sneaky capitalists perpetuate so that socialism will sound like many people have to work hard to allow lazy, greedy people to live lavish lives.
