User ID: 80791414 United States 10/24/2021 03:01 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Some homeless people disappeared. I used to see certain homeless people all the time. I've also seen homeless camps that were suddenly abandoned, leaving their stuff behind. Did they all suddenly find homes, all at once, when they couldn't find anything in more prosperous times before? I just don't know. But I'm still finding abandoned gear bags and tents in odd places. However, I still notice a few new homeless people, like one I just saw camped under a highway bridge. I'm off to explore some of those old homeless sites tonight. 230 here, but 0 there. |

Plenty of opportunities for younger people to make hay...of course they don’t call it “work” for nothing. |

User ID: 77082640 United States 10/24/2021 04:50 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Domino effect: people forced to stay home fall out of the workforce. Bills don't get paid. Things fall into disrepair. Less consumers for products. Companies don't have income. Banks get less deposits. Food prices increase. People die off. Soon Main Stream Media has no one to ask "where are all the workers". And no one cares. Then the ground war begins. And the remaining humans are killed off and put in mass graves. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 80744639 United States 10/24/2021 06:28 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | People should study societies like Mexico, Puerto Rico, Venezuela, South Africa or, even worse, North Korea to understand just how pathetic and desperate things can become. Or consider what occurred for decades in Soviet-era Russia or Mao-era China. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80970719 Americans in particular have lived under decades of normalcy bias and many of them may not really understand just how screwed-up a nation may become. That applies double or triple of Americans who think "progressive" public figures and liberal policymaking are a form of soothing, caring, helpful Big Mommy. We could have siestas at noon like in Mexico. we would then come back to work at checkout time. |

User ID: 1366222 United States 10/24/2021 06:56 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | you do realize people who left the workforce did so on grounds of being antivaccine smdh Yes some left due to the vaccine, however those people left before the vaccine was being mandated, Some were working from home already. The people just quitting? Well who knows. There's no way they are making ends meet unless they already had a nest egg saved up. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 79044425 United States 10/24/2021 07:34 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If you consider the type of job positions that are open (mostly entry level, cashier type shit) you can see a couple things. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75092756 1.) Old people who used to have jobs for fun, early morning fast food cashiers, greeters, etc. They no longer feel safe interacting with the public, so they exited the workforce. 2.) Minorities and young people who have normally filled these positions are less likely to get vaccinated. These fast food and restaurants require vaccination. They preemptively removed themselves from the board and I guarantee most of their parents back them up in this decision, most of the time. Thus, low skilled / entry level VACCINATED workers are hard to come by. They are creating a supply / demand issue by not working. Now McDonalds will hire you at $17/hr with a $500 sign on bonus. Wonder how much that will be next year? ^^This And.. The fact that everyone has a side gig now, and a lot of people had side gig's before the pandemic hit that now have multiple side gig's and/or they have turned into bigger gig's that fully fund their lives. Also.. More people than ever before are TRADING STOCKS and TRADING CRYPTO! People are making huge profits and therefore they don't need to work. This is the REAL REASON why they want to EXPAND THE IRS! -fact Seriously, think about how many side jobs, that people don't report, are available now. Sell stuff on eBay, or any number of third party marketplace sites like Facebook, Mercari, etc. Also sex cam workers. How many people are making a living now jerking off on cam, it's a thing.. I have a friend who does it and she makes bank!.. and I'm pretty sure she doesn't report any of that. And just so, so, so much more. The internet of jobs is a thing now...... |
