Black and Hispanic unemployment is at a record low
There have never been more Black and Hispanic Americans in the workforce, Friday’s Labor Department job report showed.
The jobless rate for Hispanics hit a record low of 3.9% in September, while African Americans maintained its lowest rate ever, 5.5%.
Oh, wait. That was from 2019. My bad...
Jobless rates rise in May for all racial groups except white Americans
White unemployment remained at 3.5% last month, making the demographic group the only one that didn’t experience a rise in jobless rates from April to May. It also went against the overall unemployment rate, which edged higher to 4% from 3.9%.
Meanwhile, the jobless rate for Black Americans rose to 6.1% from 5.6%. For Asian and Hispanic workers, respectively, it rose to 3.1% from 2.8%, and to 5% from 4.8%.

About doing "multiple gig jobs" vs. "one full time job," while "one full time job" is easier and more more predictable day-to-day, the "multiple gig jobs" model is arguably lower risk long term because you won't be completely out of work and out of income because an employer goes bust or terminate you all of a sudden.
Yeah, the Industrial Revolution somehow led to an abundance of jobs that are steady year round, it lifted the standard of living for the masses. It's good to have "one steady full time job", it's good to not have to worry about what to do with your next eight hours (because your employer planned it out for you). But why would one expect that model to last forever?

That we need to fix with single payer universal healthcare. Single payer universal healthcare is the right solution regardless of whether the labor pool is mostly “full time” or mostly “gig” workers.

Great, I nominate you to be the single payer.

That is obamacare.
Of course additional insurance options exist for those who want to pay. More than just the single payer is not forbidden.

Same price, one less bowl of peppers (I used to get sweet AND hot) one less piece of bread (I used to get five), and probably less italian beef.
Shrinkflation.
