America is NOT OK! I feel we’re being pushed into poverty so that the government can sweep in and “save” us all at the last min. Most people live paycheck-paycheck, if they are lucky to even have a job. The middle class has disappeared and the lower class is living on the streets and in their cars.

I don't understand though. In my area (rural pa) there are "we're hiring" signs everywhere. Restaurants, big box stores, mom & pop businesses, grocery stores etc. I know of a few business owners who said the resumes stopped coming in. And these are $30 an hour jobs with benefits. My son's both struggle to find entry level people to work remotely in their IT companies (no experience needed) and will pay for you to get continued ed. I hear stories about people just not showing up for work, or quitting with nothing else lined up. I scratch my head over this. Maybe I'm missing something? I am single and support myself through several side hustles. I don't live beyond my means and I don't rely on being anyone's employee.
Please tell me where I can get a full time $30\hour job in retail. Where I’m at only thing being offered is part time and nothing above 25 for contractor job. Retail is 17/h and that’s only bc I’m in ca. Juggling 3-4 part time jobs puts a lot of stress on my fam and no benefits.
What I do believe happened during Covid is people were making more money staying home. Now, because of that conditioning, some of those people don’t want to work and those who do only have access to part time jobs as employers have largely decided everyone is part timers now. At least that seems to be the case here where I live.
The business owners I referred to are not retail for $30 an hour Full Time. They are looking for Drivers and Technicians. There are retail establishments in my area paying close to $20/hr. My point is that there are jobs out there. The reddit post talks about husband getting one more month of income before it all stops and they have to live in a car. I don't know, I just feel like that person might be being too picky. He should be looking NOW.
But didn't that COVID money run out a long time ago or are some states still sending checks to some people? I haven't heard of anyone I've known getting that money since late 2021. My wife didn't get anything other than regular unemployment when she lost her job back in 2022 (before we got married.)
CA is an expensive place to live. If you can't find a job there, why not move?
Can’t afford to move. Have no family or friends in other states. Living paycheck to paycheck on the dime. CA gets you stuck, sadly. Trust me I would love to move my family to AZ or Texas and have dreamed of doing that ever since the stollen election. But with no job lined up and no place to live due to no money left in savings it’s sadly not an easy option. Haven’t given up completely but I’m up to my knees in obstacles.
I see help wanted signs here in ohio...stores that don't seem to be booming are hiring..like tractor supply
As we move further into marxism we will see more of this. The benefits are good enough that people don’t have to work, so they won’t.
Read all the comments on this board. People are struggling to pay for rent/housing, support their children, etc. The winning play is to live as a simp in your parents basement and play Xbox all day while collecting $2000 a month, Medicare, and other benefits. This is, of course, all by design.
decent comment but usually “simp” is used for a man who flatters, indulges, and tolerates disloyal behavior from women, not his parents.
We expanded that long ago like how we call DeSantis supporters "DeSimps". Anyhow the basement dwellers probably are engaging in simp behavior you described, like throwing money at eThots on Twitch and OnlyFans.
100%
Where is this still going on? I know a few "basement dwellers" and even the dude on disability doesn't get this extra money.
Exactly describes the reddit majority (where the op screen shot is from)
I have been wondering if they murdered more people with jabs and malpractice than we thought as my employer has been having trouble filling six-figure positions for a couple years now. I know my state has been hemorrhaging population (and I'm trying to figure out how to get out as well) but even offices in red states are having trouble, it's a corporate-wide issue.
You need years and years of college for those jobs. Many people don't want liberal cat women and homosexual male teachers shouting at them while they're trying to earn a degree - only to do work that requires absolutely no education whatsoever.
There are two major things at play that answer your question.
Add in the fact that most jobs haven't done anything wage wise to counter this, and therein lies the problem.
