    Who could have predicted that with the government paying people on the low end of the wage spectrum more money NOT to work. ... that a lot of people would be choosing not to go back to work?

    How dare these employees expect to be paid enough to make a living, right?

    People who argue this are so very close to getting the point.

    They predicted 1 million jobs. They got 266,000. There’s something to it.

    The whisper numbers were more like 2 million. Honest. I don't know who is more clueless, the legislators fucking up our country or the economists at the big banks who are forecasting these things.

    BTW, the BLS number may or may not be accurate. They have as much ability to count jobs as you orI do. They are pulling these numbers out of their ass. On top of it, they don't count millions of people who aren't working anyhow. It's the silliest number imagineable, but markets pay attention to it, because the Fed will now use it as a reason to keep pumping liquidity in, because they've backed themselves into a corner.

    Alma-

    I laughed out loud when you trollingly asked if anyone here was Marxist. Well done, my boy.

    I'll answer your question. I am not Marxist. I am though a "classical British liberal," as Jordan Peterson has said.

    Not just immigrants. Last time I check, my college newspaper’s production manager was living in a house where the bedrooms and the garage have been repurposed as bunk rooms.
