    A little revolution might do this country some good.

      The article highlights for you six reasons why there aren‘t more people hired. Not only you choose to focus only on the last one, it’s also one that the economists cited by the article say is dubious.

      It's not dubious. I know lots of people who are doing it. Besides that it is the one the government can act on quickly but the idiots extended it to September. When it ends and if they don't extend it watch how much teh labor force loosens up.

        Our education infrastructure is plenty good. 4000 colleges! It’s what they are teaching and if this forum is representative it seems to be fixated on wokeness and cultural studies. Why pay for skills that don’t matter in the workforce?

        Yeah, I'm OK with reducing financial aid for most of the liberal arts and social studies and pour resources into STEM, professional, and trade education and apprentice programs.

        I think a lot of people would. Is there anything in our free education legislation that talks about this?

          Are you confident that, should a revolution come about, you will like the aftermath more than the status quo?

              Is thought that increasing corporate tax rate will help in hiring?

              Just for curious, I looked up the corporate tax rate over history in the US.

              (https://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/corporate-tax-rate)

              For the last 110 years, it has averaged 32.3%. Not sure why all of a sudden, anything above 21% is so bad and will crumble the economy???
