Excellent read, in a sickening kind of way.
MetLife is pulling up stakes in CA and along the North East and moving to North Carolina. I think that is pretty interesting. It represents 2,600 jobs.
Put all the bad Democrat policies on steroids, and that is what we are seeing. They are so full of themselves on their policies that they don’t see the facts, or they are simply trying to destroy capitalism and the Republic...kinda like the Nazi’s did in the 1930’s.
I think Obamacare is increasing part time employment. Employers are hiring three people to do two jobs. That way none of them works more than 30 hours and the boss doesn’t have to pay for healthcare.
The plan is to siphon off that cash by making employees more expensive. But guess what, business owners are business owners because they work like dogs. And don’t have to rely on lazy greedy workers, they will do the work themselves.
Entry level employment has been steadily falling since the minimum wage. I remember the before and it was much different than today.
This explains self service gas stations, the ATMs obama blamed our employment problems, as well as moving our various other service centers overseas to India and other places when we used to just take care of it ourselves.
The progs pushed this on purpose and ignored economists and history's record to do it. Do you really need to ask why?
Here's the playbook:
Make things bad, blame someone else and promise to fix it.
Keep people stupid and they will believe you and keep you in office for as long as they think you're taking care of them.
They've always been the party of slavery and they've gotten better at it.
In the old days, they rounded you up and sold you against your will and we called it what it is: slavery.
Today, we volunteer with our vote for it and call it "democrazy".
There’s another economic revolution brewing here that has not been fully appreciated....
The productivity revolution.
Middle managers are being displaced by better computer software and new communication platforms.
Teachers and trainers at every level will be challenged by Internet schools.
And, blue collar productivity increases every year thanks to better workplace design, better scheduling, labor saving machines, and robotics.
Younger workers with limited or very generalized skills will face a frightening employment market in coming decades.
