Indeed, the share of Americans working or looking for jobs is at the lowest it’s been in decades, even as the number of job openings reaches historic highs.

How are they counting "job openings"? I have applied for jobs that fit my skill set and never got a call back. The job will be advertized for six weeks and then vanish only to reappear a couple of weeks later.

Is that counted as one job or two? And is there even a job there in the first place?

I have gotten the impression that many job postings are simply resume collections with there not being an actual job opening.

When I see those jobs I suspect 1) the workplace is horrible, and they have high turnover, or 2) someone is making the case for hiring a foreigner, so they’ll pretend they can’t find qualified people.

American workers have lsot so much ground in the last few decades, it has (regrettably) driven them to support outright communism. Isn’t that what first brought about communism’s rise/spread?
