Hard to believe. A story aired that said birthrates are down by over 1 million. So concerns about enough people for jobs. Now the issue is college graduates not finding jobs?
There are plenty of shit jobs available. Ones that pay a living + enough to recoup the cost of education is what's in short supply. The Dipshit taking a bludgeon to the manufacturing and agricultural sectors didn't help either. Alienating our allies/largest markets are affecting jobs all across sectors
Anecdotally, I've been hearing from people here in Europe that in my high-skill niche, we're getting a while bunch of US refugees taking jobs.
Calling them “refugees” is odd. Also kinda undercuts real refugees who escaped a deadly environment.
Implying the us isnt becoming a deadly environment.
If you are a conservative then you are right. Since a church/school was shot up in Minneapolis and Charlie K was shot.
Both by repubs, good job pointing out the issue.
Yeah...we just ignore the vice president calling to label trans activists as terrorists and the fox news calling to murder the homeless.
Last 2 shootings was people either trans or in a relationship with a trans person. So no secret here.
Pro-tip: When people emerge from the right-wing bubble, the disconnect from the observable reality that's obvious to normal people makes them sound like a kook. The only way to make this statement make any sort of sense is to presume the unstated: "Last 2 shootings [that matter to me and my political agenda] was people either trans or in a relationship with a trans person. [I'm pretending that all of the shootings that don't align with my political biases didn't happen.]"
Oh honey... theres litterally multiple shootings every single day. You just dont hear about them because they are so common that they aint note worthy.
If you have something to say, just say it. Dont beat around the bush. We all know what your saying.
Most of the people i met who graduated from the same CS program as me did not find a job in their field.
This was in 2017
And it's only gotten worse
