I’ve been told by the OT Lefties that the additional unemployment payments have NOTHING to do with businesses of all sizes struggling to hire people and keep staff.

I can’t believe how much money the government is about to waste on monthly child tax payments for people with no income or couples who make 150k. Insanity.

Several months late and I’ll believe it when I see it. I’ll give it to the Sloth, he knows how to walk that line.

She's a total dumb-arse who loves baby killing. Responsibility is a foreign word to her.

This is shocking (in a good way) that Louisiana may end this early because there is no good reason for it now anyway.

Not a lefty.

Businesses are not paying enough to get reliable employees. The market rate is MUCH higher than what places are starting at. An unskilled person with a car can make $30/hr in the gig economy, why would they take a crappy $10/hr job??

Money is worth less, much less, than it was 18 months ago, nobody disputes that but people put their head in the sand when it comes to paying more for labor.

Everyone is paying more for cars, houses, lumber, food, etc. Labor has to go up to make it worth it for people to work.

I can't speak for all businesses but in mental health I pay techs exactly what I can based on what insurance companies will reimburse us for. What we offer is more security and stability than gig work plus benefits. Problem is workers these days are short sighted and aren't looking past the hourly rate. I've been on a HUGE hiring push since January and have not been able to hire a soul. I bet that changes to at least some degree when this bullshite ends

Technology

Or do you want to go with the money printing Trump did?

Good luck finding a person with a car.

For a while I thought my husband was a damned taxi service with all the employees he was shuttling around just to have people to come to work

Those losers will take a $10/hr job when the unemployment ends

That’s called inflation. Your solution to inflation on goods due to covid is inflate wages? You must be great at economics.

Allow the free market to work. Mandated federal wages artificially inflate labor costs. Allow businesses to decide the wage. Eliminate Biden bucks. As government hand holding ends, people will go back to work.

This isn’t hard, even for you.
