My bro in law sells boba tea supplies from Taiwan to all your favorite boba tea stores.
He had a container that he was about to send but cancelled it because his margin is less than 10% and his stores he supports also runs a lean margin.
Last week he decided to close one of his warehouses in Portland, letting go of 20 people and a few hundred stores that depend on him.
When asked why he doesn’t just up the price, he said that if he did, the mass majority of the stores he supports won’t make it and the Oregon warehouse is barely breaking even.
Funny thing about him is that he sat out this election and now he regrets it.
It’s not like it would’ve made a difference in Oregon. There’s like only a couple 100000 swing voters that really matter when it comes to the presidency. (Local issues might still make it worth coming out for tho).

ouch, this always hurts. I choose to still have empathy with him, even if he did make a extremely stupid decision.

what, like Oregon could’ve gone 70% democratic instead of 55%?
He is registered in the outskirts of Clark County in NV. His vote counted there.
His vote WOULD HAVE counted there, HAD THEY BOTHERED.
Emphasis mine.
His vote, or more correctly, his choice not to vote, definitely still counted, just not in the way we would have preferred.
