Pann: Changes in 2020
1. [+474, -10] Why are they banning paper boxes?
2. [+402, -20] The box ban is such a stupid law.
3. [+165, -7] I wonder why they decided to change the passport color.
4. [+123, -3] If they're banning drinking ads, they should also ban plastic surgery ads, too.
5. [+89, -9] I love the ban on drinking ads. I hate how they view weak drinkers as losers.
6. [+68, -17] Those who are cheering for minimum wage increase are short-sighted. If they keep increasing the minimum wage, the bosses will hire less part-timers and there will be less jobs.
7. [+67, -62] The economy is worsening already. If they keep increasing the minimum wage, the workplaces will hire less workers and it'll lead to less jobs. Minimum wage increase is not something to congratulate.
8. [+66, -1] If you want to stop minors from drinking, please ban the songs that talk about drinking too ㅋㅋㅋ
