  Does this count the number of “available jobs” that companies aren’t abusing looking to fill?

    Probably

    The real number is probably much lower

    Trump’s sec of the OPM just said that they are intentionally causing economic instability to encourage people to take the Gestapo jobs being posted.

  Nobody wants to pay a livable wage anymore. Lazy executives and CEOs wanting work for free. They need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps and find a way to pay people what they are worth and maybe stop buying so many avocado yachts and Starbucks summer homes with all that money they hold out on paying us with.

  This has been the goal since 2021.

  It took them forever to get here compared to 2008

  Definitely it’s not a recession.
