In our little town, there are "Now Hiring!" flags flying from many business. My sad discovery has been (so far) the flags are only just that: "virtue signaling" flags to generate numbers for the state or the EEOC. It's a bad joke. Any non-traditional worker that shows up to apply will be left twisting in the wind like one of the flags. Too many of the 'business' organizations here are willing to work their 'good horses' to death - and they only hire when one of their overworked people has to give it up.
I KNOW there are good employers here, somewhere; the community itself is very special in many ways. I'll continue trying to find one mom & pop shop or company that's not playing statistical games and honestly wants to put working people to work. God STILL provides.
Consider putting out handwritten signs offering your services. Most of the people I know and talk to would prefer to hire the little guy to do what they need.
I bring my cars and small engine repairs to a neighbor. It's closer than any commercial shop and the government doesn't get to intrude on the transaction. He has enough business to open a commercial shop but chooses to work out of his own backyard. Additionally, I get better service and better prices.
We need to build our own separate economy, free of the government cabal.
YES! Whole-heartedly agreed! Even combining several small, occasional or part-time gigs. Non-traditional worker? Seek non-traditional work. Such is the path I've followed to this point. Will I be operating a snow-thrower this season? We'll see. THANKS, cryofreeze!
I truly hope you strike out on your own. It's more rewarding in every sense.
Quick start marketing: find the parallel contractors. If you are snow-throwing then make sure every landscaper, paver, side walk contractor, and any other services you can think of have your business card. Text them, email, or walk up and put a card in their hands. Some of them wish they knew a reliable snow guy to recommend to their clients. Some of them will hire you to sub-contract.
Treat every contractor and customer the way you wish others treated you and your business will flourish.
There may have been a lot of people who worked because they enjoyed their work, not because they needed to work. Once the vaxx mandates came into play, they may have said screw it and quit. These people will be in no hurry to find a job, as they have other ways to support themselves.
They aren't getting much from me. I owe a lot from years ago, and they don't seem very concerned about it. Now if I didn't file a form at all, the law would be here to take me away. But just not paying is just a minor thing.
Lot of folks find work in the cash economy, and the don't pay taxes. I suspect if some of those learn they can make enough to supporst themselves they will stay out of the 'workforce' for an extended period.
The cash economy is another reason the elites want a cashless society. So long as it exists there will be a good number of people they cannot control.

Wow! YES! You've done this before! LOL! THANK YOU!
Is there anything that we can trust? Good grief. Wonder if the business owners are getting paid for this.

Lots of “early retirement” happened.
I'm not "working," but I have multiple income streams, as everyone should in times like these.
Multiple websites, YouTube channels, side hustles, etc. It all adds up to a pretty comfortable total.
Of course most of those millions are just sucking off our tax money.
Once you give money to the cabal, it's theirs not yours.

You sure it's "law"? Does it make sense we need to pay to live in a "free country?"
Perhaps it's another psyop just like the jab.
Doesn't matter. They will haul you away for not filing. That's what they got Al Capone on way back then. They didn't get him for not paying taxes.
It does matter. Just because you can be arrested does not mean it's law.
Jan 6, vax, masks -- seems like the lesson is learned over and over again. Until we stop complying we are destined for slavery.
Resist.
If you're arrested, you're still in jail.
I haven't worn a mask yet.

Off the backs of us, who do work. Who are just barely making it , and now prices are going up on everything. soon we'll all be unemployed.
