Democracy fails as soon as people find out can VOTE for a living.

Well should these people be praised for maximizing their economic well being while expending no effort? The old rationale economic man theory. Sarcasm or not?

Well, when wages have been pretty much stagnant for 50 years (while all other expenses are NOT stagnant), it’s kind of inevitable that government has to pick up the slack. And since government benefits are not stagnant, it’s become a losing proposition to keeping working, for all but the higher tiers of wage earners.

I know that’s not a popular opinion, but the facts are the facts.

“ In 14 states, unemployment benefits and ACA subsidies for family of four with two people not working amounts to annualized equivalent of $80,000 a year in wages and benefits, the study found. “

How does the math work on this and how does one get these “benefits”.

Why are so many people walking by those "help wanted" signs rather than inquiring about work?

With the "big boxes" it is because they can not hire you.

You have to go to the company website and apply.

And then the algorithm will sort and forward some of the application to the centralized HR department where it will not be a priority to sort it again (they are too busy taking pictures of their lunch) and after a couple of months it might finally be passed on to the manager at a business about sixty miles away rather then the one you wanted to work at.

When you say you do not want to drive 60 miles to work a four hour shift they will cry how they can not "find anyone who wants to work".

Let the robots do it.. While we appreciate fine art and beauty(a man dressed like a women and or “married” to another man).
And white people finally get what they deserve for not using the proper language some nutty professors created...and all those inventions they came up with that made life easier for Marxists and subversives.
Serves them right.

America has the world’s reserve currency. We also have a completely printed, fiat currency and manipulated interest rates, and our Federal Reserve has now established the practice of monetizing Federal debt

The upshot: every.single.one of progressive/woke/leftist government welfare and insane social engineering schemes can be funded, as well as a WHOLE lot of MIC and political thievery as well. We can export part of our inflation, and the world must take our printed pix of George Washington.

It won’t last forever. But while it does, don’t be surprised Americans won’t work for $15 an hour

People aren't gonna go work for a large company that wanted to force them to get a shot. Customer service jobs have to deal with urbans and karens. Lots of people have gone gault and work under the table.

What’s the difference between working from your home and someone in India or China doing the same job from their home?

A subsidy to help pay for health insurance isn't going to keep you from working if you otherwise would.

This is a stupid point to try to jack up the value of the benefits.
