    It hasn’t been this hard for Americans to find work since 2021

    And before that, 2020, and before that, 2012, and before that, 2008, and before that. . . .

    I suspect the system is designed this way, to put people in a near-permanent cutthroat burnout-hustle state of sheer desperation for anything even resembling stability.

    It also keeps the working class as a whole scattered and inwardly conflicted, so they don’t mass up against their masters.

      The rich didn’t design this, they merely exploit the design.

      The rich do not create or design anything. They steal everything they have from the working class and rebrand some of it as their own.
