  • From your comment I assume you are American, since I heard that people pack your bags at your stores. In Germany and probably most of Europe a typical checkout process works differently and probably solves the problem.

    1. You put your stuff on a large transport band, emptying your cart (probably have those as well)
    2. When you’re up you move your cart at the large area after the cashier
    3. The cashier registers everything and pushes it to you into that big area
    4. You put everything in your bags while they are working
    5. Cashier finishes, you make your payment
    6. You pack the last 3 items that are remaining

    Some stores also introduced a simple “switch” that makes the products of the person after you slide into a seperate area, to save time .









  • I’d like to see such a rule, but doubt that there won’t be any loopholes to circumvent it. You can already see some of those in sports. There are a lot of stories on how clubs “dealt” with financial fair play in european football and I heard rumors of a similar thing with the american salary cap too.

    Just some ideas:

    • ridiculously long contracts with “fair” pay
    • managers are working for a seperate company that only contains managers
    • seperate overpayed contracts for a none existing job
    • material/service based rewards like private jets

    All in all good luck with finding a politician pushing this through (most lf the are exactly in those positions) and finding all the loopholes. Rich people can pay a lot of experts to become even richer
