Most of the jobs are not coming back. Only ones hiring still after 4 months are those offering near minimum wage part-time jobs or sub-minimum wage gig economy work.

Companies have used this shutdown to move jobs offshore to India. Vanguard Capital was the latest. Kiss another 18,000 decent jobs goodbye to be replaced by brutal low-paying McJobs. This follows Uber, IBM, Indeed, LinkedIn, Amazon, AT&T, and Boeing. Firing Americans, retaining foreign workers (they all claim it’s unfair to send them back to India)

Yep. I’d like to see a huge smackdown of any corp that offshores jobs. Tariff the hell out of offshore services. Add some additional taxes to those that still don’t get the message.
