[citygator]

As long as your slave has at least a valid green I wont tell you how much to pay

But I suspect to are not going to pay American wages till the supply of desperate illegal aliens tuns out

Slave wages. lol. They get paid more than you do. Come on over and get a raise.

You should try my brand of laziness. My laziness produced a giant house and yard to care for and a lovely wife who does yoga not house work. The horror.

You live in a van down by the river, on the wrong side of the tracks, no one believes you are rich.

That's what everybody thought, until they tried to call social security about their retirement, and got a busy signal.

Come on we need those trans monkey studies

I just employ people who want to work. Want to clean my house for $180? They are usually here for 3 hours so it’s $20-30 an hour per person depending on whether they need 2 or 3 people to get it done. Make me an offer.

$180.00! What, are you getting call girls to clean your place?

Sadly the ones that show up here look closer to middle aged Russian Babushkas but they work hard for $125.00 a cleaning session.

Grim news regardless of your party preference. Employment is the temperature gauge of the nation’s economy. The number of unemployed people looking for work more than six months has surged to its highest level since the pandemic. Basically these are people put out of work during Trump’s first few months and still are not employed.

Nice job Trump.

Why a surge in long-term unemployed workers is ringing alarm bells

The number of unemployed people looking for work more than six months has surged to its highest level since 2021.

www.cbsnews.com

As of August, the number of long-term unemployed people had risen to 1.9 million, according to government data — the highest level since 2021, when the nation was still reeling from the pandemic.

With the job market faltering in recent months as employers put the brakes on hiring, more workers are being sidelined for months on end, economists told CBS News.

"We're continuing to see this low-hire, low-fire environment," said Laura Ullrich, Indeed's director of economic research for North America and a former official at the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond. "There aren't really new jobs being opened up for people — there isn't room for new people to come in."

A CBS News poll released Thursday captures the dimming view many Americans have of the labor market, with 33% of respondents describing it as "good," down from 41% in April. What's more, 48% said they think there are fewer good jobs where they live compared to five years ago.

And that's exactly why we must protect the American people by deporting illegals and by ensuring that H1B visas are not misused.

Remember Obama inherited the "great recession" which drove unemployment to 10%. So it took a while to get the country rolling.

Brought on by Democrats ignoring the housing bubble despite George Bush's warning.

I guess Russian immigrants are light enough skinned for you.

BLS says 2.2%. You are on a roll. I have a professional degree at the master's level so 1.3%. Not bad for us smarties.

You may be a smart ass, but you are not very intelligent. The subject matter is "useless" (low value) degrees, not degrees in general. BTW, what is your "professional degree?"

You responded to months of declining manufacturing data with an anecdote. Awesome. How dumb do you think people are?

By the way, how many TVs have been made in Minnesota in the FOXConn factory after Trump's big announcement last administration?

That would be none.

First, that's not nice.

Second, there is no such thing as a useless degree. Degrees in fields like humanities, philosophy, gender studies, and some fine arts arent taken by people expecting to be trading stocks on Wall Street but instead are taken by people with a passion for something. In the end they end up catch up to the earning levels of STEM majors. There are many studies showing that.

Third, I have an MBA from one of the top 3 ranked public universities. Go Blue.

...
... refuse to accept the fact they need to find an entry level job they feel is "beneath their dignity"

Have you ever met anyone who took that attitude?

I've seen the Tiktok posts of those wondering why they can't get their niche degree jobs.

It's the people in question in their own words, which is why the left has a special hate for that LibsofTiktok lady.
