crazy how much of an anomaly covid was...pure overaction followed by a gigantic labor shortage. will be interesting to see what comes from this moment 5-10 years from now
Facts don't matter because "both sides". Maybe if you keep letting Republicans get back in power and trash teh country you'll motivate Democrats to do better 
If you look at the Workforce Participation Rate we're still 1% off where we were pre-covid.
Those ppl that retired or quit and aren't coming back is the labor shortage.

right, but because of this gap, a lot of companies raised pay and incentives to get new people in and for once labor felt a modicum of choice/power/influence, i'll be interested to see if this leads to sustained change/gains or if we're right back at square one 5-10 years out
