Some companies did give religious exemptions and those hard workers have full time jobs, so they aren’t looking. Smaller businesses did not mandate the shots, they weren’t influenced or beholden to the government because they knew government ignores small businesses and favors conglomerates with their handouts and bribes. So those people also are not looking for work. Big business has themselves to blame. They clearly let employees know that they could be replaced if they did not comply and now they are getting a big FU from future and past employees. People have not gotten to the financial precipice yet. When prices really escalate for food and gasoline and they are unable to meet the mortgage and credit card payments there will be panic. Many companies are laying off and as the economy gets worse, those who squeaked by with religious exemptions may be cut in the next wave. I think, despite the help wanted signs, businesses are being cautious about hiring. I see many older people taking cashier jobs in the grocery stores. This tells me many are living on unemployment, food stamps, housing subsidies, and credit cards. That will eventually come to an end, as the government can no longer keep printing money and prices rise hire and the recession turns into a full fledged depression.
