In all seriousness, where do these statistics come from that say the economy is doing great? Like are we talking about the stats that say millions of new jobs and businesses are being created and when you look at them, they're talking about Uber/Lyft drivers?

Picking up my kids at school today saw a car with the newest LGBTQIAA+ flag sticker on the back along with some harry potter stuff. AND a sticker that said: "I support the hard work of police AND BLACK LIVES MATTER" Libs really are something else.

A lot of these poor fucks are just stuck at the bottom in go-nowhere service jobs and watching their rent and food costs climb every month, waiting for the axe to drop. written like it's from a former WSJ writer, which it is: quote:It’s important to remember, Duke tells me, that younger workers are always starting out at a disadvantage when they enter the workforce. You start at an entry level wage, gain experience, and, typically, you see your wages go up. Of course, the long view is little comfort when you’re 23 and slurping bodega ramen with your six roommates. the entire piece is coyly written as if food & housing costs just increased as a force of nature & not bc of unregulated capitalism. and it's that dang social media handing out misinfo again! quote:One giant difference between now and any other moment in history: Gen Z is entering adulthood armed with a menagerie of social platforms where they can publicly broadcast their financial angst, or, conversely, gawk at peers who are having a better time thanks to generational wealth. and then to cap it off she calls her fellow millies lucky duckies: quote:But distressed Gen Zers can take a bit of solace from the Millennial experience.

They revise the job numbers like a month or two later and it’s usually a huge drop like if they claim 300k jobs it drops down to actually 140k jobs

I always love when a pop star is like "I'm gonna put out a country album now" and writes the most surface level garbage and puts on a slight twang and calls it a day if you're gonna really stretch yourself artistically work with like... The Handsome Family or something

I can't find it with searches but someone in the last few weeks of the previous thread posted a graph, or a tweet with a graph, showing that it was like entirely part-time jobs being created, while full-time ones shrunk

A lot of these poor fucks are just stuck at the bottom in go-nowhere service jobs and watching their rent and food costs climb every month, waiting for the axe to drop. It sucks because my friend has been unemployed for over a year now, and there's nothing to tell him since it's very likely the only options are 1. high turnover burn-out job, 2. low-paying retail/service stuff, 3. try training for something completely different. I think he's in a rut at this point that is going to end with him moving back with his parents or something once he completely runs out of money. I doubt he's going to face reality until then. He's been doing these roofing sales, but it's obvious that isn't going to work out, at least with his personality (he's only sold like 2 in the last year).
