okay first of all, there are laws about income

yes, of course

second of all, there's competition in labor force and wages

labor force decide where to look for jobs

they'll want the best offers

especially the specialized

capitalism always has a certain amount of unemployment

to threaten workers with instant replacement

well unemployment is a record low in the US rn

4.4 percent

one of the lowest rates

yep

in the world

it can be a low rate

but it has to be there

we are about to obliterate unemployment

even milton friedman believed that

poverty and unemployment is going downhill hard

they may in the short term

but the market goes up and down and up and down

short term?

i'm talking about

30 years of progress

in unemployment and poverty

troughout the entire US history

both of these elements have been peaking down

and yet enough people are disillusioned and unemployed to vote for trump

the rust belt's namesake

You can't eliminate unemployement lol. Very low to zero unemployment is relatively unhealthy

@EALootcrates Though you should note that a lot of them are part time or contract jobs under government management.

we're not gonna lie

it's funny because

at least 1.5 million private jobs

trump won because a lot of people in the south and midwest were scared for their careers

have been created under trump

the number of public jobs

have been peaking down since 2010

the percentage of public jobs

is now around 8 percent

on a 4.4 unemployment rate
