That's Democrats problem though as those two people are members of their own party. The only thing people will pay attention to is the letter next to their name. That's why Nancy didn't want to make the vote public because their party would be the one thrown under the bus since they are ones who have control of Congress.

You right. :yeshrug:

Democrats will always be at a disadvantage in the federal government. It's designed to overrepresent rural white people unfortunately.

Terrible jobs have openings, who knew :mjlol:


These companies are out here trying to finesse still.


It depends on the industry, but in IT, they still don't want to budge from $18/hr contract to hire with shytty benefits.

Mind you, you are competing with waaaay more people for every opening now that is worth a damn. From layoffs to recent grads, its a madhouse out here.

Spoke to a recruiter yesterday about this. He keeps telling these companies that it isn't 2009 any more. Raise the damn payrate.

I mean at my company, we've had crazy #s of people leaving for other jobs. I'm in a good position, but I see why people lower on the totem pole switching over to places that ARE offering nice wages/salaries. those people aren't exactly going from unemployed to employed though, they just switching jobs.

our company is either not backfilling the position at all/filling it with people overseas or just filling it at the same wage, which IMO isn't great.


that being said, just because some companies are actually offering better wages/benefits, it doesn't mean they all are. I bet those companies that truly are offering something decent arent the ones you see on the news crying regularly either. I guarantee plenty of those jobs have horrible wages/are part time/don't have benefits/are in a shytty field that no one wants to work in for that trash pay, but that part never gets included in the statistic of "open jobs" lol. something has to give at some point, evicting people won't be it either, but i'm sure some people have convinced themselves it will be.

When Obama was in office, they changed the rules of "Full time" and Walmart was able to cut your hours back to 34 and still put that on the books as full time.

Legit would clock my ass out and tell me to go home. I'm like wtf :gucci:


But like you said, folks just see "job" and go "yea see thats a job, you dont have to like it, just work" etc etc etc.

Evictions are going to set generations back :francis:


I've read stories about people who were kids during the 08 Financial crisis, watching their parents commit suicide, bouncing from place to place.


Gonna be ugly out here by next year.

Congress scrambles to extend eviction moratorium expiring Saturday

Congress has had well over a year to come up with a long term solution to the problem, yet are now trying to deflect blame and point fingers for their failures. If Biden said last month that he wasn't going to extend the moratorium, then why not try to come up with a solution?

They could just forgive rent nationwide and pay the landlords, but that of course will never happen because there must be suffering under capitalism

That would require them actually trying to solve a problem that they helped create in the first place. As another said in this thread and I have too before, I don't see how they aren't going to have to wipe evictions from tenants create as those people technically be homeless even if they were able to come up on the funds to find somewhere to stay.
