I would not be calling the jobs report a win by any measure. No ones advancing, they're just shifting to a permeant underclass.

You're acting like the left-wing stereotype of a right-winger who complains that illegal aliens are capturing all those "first jobs" Americans should be getting, like driving trucks and working warehouses, and then, when the illegals leave, you complain that those jobs are shitty, and Americans shouldn't have to do them.

It's not that picking cotton is a great job. It's that flooding your land with niggers so you can sit in the shade while they pick it for you isn't worth it.

91% of all new jobs go to foreigners. 1/3rd of all american young men are not even looking.
True from 2021-2024. Democrat voters wanted immigration to take off like a rocket, and it did. Foreign-born employment slammed into a wall when Trump took office. Party's over for the jeet.
 
It was literally like two weeks after he got elected to the senate. Hunter and Beau were in the car but survived.

My theory is Joe was trying to rub his family out for a clean slate and he never cared that Hunter was a crackhead because Hunter wasn’t even supposed to be alive
Unlikely, considering that the truck driver involved in the crash sued Biden for defamation because Joe kept claiming that he was driving drunk when he provably wasn't. Most likely scenario is that there was ice on the roads because it was December in Delaware. Alternately, she decided to go family annihilator because she knew what kind of monster Joe is and the idea that he would now be a Senator was too terrifying for her to countenance.
 
1/3 of American men aren't looking for work.

I cannot find anything about the 91%, but according to the BLS out of the roughly 171 million employed in 2025, 32 million were foreigners. I don't know if this is due to fraud concealing a much larger number, but I suspect it is.
Thanks for the info.

I just wonder what exactly does "not in the workforce" mean. Is this counting only full time? Would you count a guy as in the workforce that is flipping Pokemon cards or doing something else on the side? I'm sure that's not going to account for the entire 1/3 but still.

He’s more or less or correct if you assume the worst case, rounded up values, but it’s kind of bullshit statistics. A lot of people in that age group choose not to work for a lot of valid reasons, like school, training, volunteering, wanting to be ‘daytraders’ or some bullshit, drug dealing, etc.
This would probably be a reason for some of it as well.

The DEI trend for the last few years probably kept this number up as well. It is quickly disappearing but we may see it's affects for at least the next 5 years or so I'm guessing.

I do think foreigners taking jobs probably correlates to this 1/3 as well. Especially when you see those job openings where they try their hardest to not have a citizen apply for the job.

I've seen a lot of videos of people where they try to seek employment and never find it or end up just taking the McDonalds job because they have to. That's a tough spot to be in especially when you have worked hard, gone to school, and now can't go into the field you worked for years to get into. I think that type of environment may make someone just say "fuck it, if the market doesn't want me, I won't even try."
 
This is why it's retarded that economists and liberals think that the population has to continue to go up and flooded with browns because that's going to mean more people to "care" for the geriatrics.
The population is required to always increase because the cost projections of all the entitlement programs the boomers promised themselves that the rest of us will pay for are based on a much larger population of taxpayers. The last week of a senior's life costs taxpayers more than they have contributed into the system their entire lives (not counting all of the benefits they've already gotten before that final week). In 1945 there were 42 workers paying into the system for every one Social Security beneficiary. Today its 3 workers per beneficiary. This is unsustainable.
 
For anyone wanting to doom about jobs: the unemployment rate sits at 4.3% (below historical average) and labor participation of U.S.-born prime workers (ages 25 to 54) is over 80% (above historical average). If you want a job, and can’t get one: skill issue.
I moved to a town with like three people in it and got a job because I’m white and can speak in something recognizable as English sentences.

Coming from a 90% white state, I was suspicious at how eager the company seemed. Then I met my coworkers
 
Almost HALF of the jobs "created"
Why did you feel the need to put created in quotations? The very idea that jobs need creating so that people can participate in the economy is itself inorganic and pursuant to a modernist paradigm, as opposed to people naturally just finding work to do among themselves and paying each other in goods and services.

Don't quit your day job, "editorialist"
 
Healthcare jobs are going to be big because of all the boomers dying off. This is why it's retarded that economists and liberals think that the population has to continue to go up and flooded with browns because that's going to mean more people to "care" for the geriatrics. The population decreasing will be a good thing because all those healthcare jobs will eventually not be needed.
As much as some may hate boomers, there will be a lot of elder abuse in the years to come. Incompetent, brown "nurses" with sketchy qualifications will probably let them languish away in 4th rate retirement homes.

A similar thing happened in Ukraine when most of the young people, parents with kids, and others outside of the draft age just evacuated that country. Lots of old people literally died from cold. I am not sure what is happening in Korea or Japan, which has a similar problem of too many geriatrics and too few hands to help them.
 
Even our criminal enterprises have been outsourced- we were so proud to crack down on our domestic mafias, but all that did was open a gap for albanians, mexicans, russians, somalians, chinks, etc. to fill the void, and our retarded american niggers are happy to act as local enforcers getting paid in silver and sneakers while all the real profits are literally shipped overseas.

But partially cutting the brake lines was a major meme back in the day

It was NOT icy out, and the car drifted through a stop sign to get hit by a truck “broadside” according to contemporary state police statements.

They were on their way home from Christmas shopping. Six weeks past his winning the election but still before inauguration seems like a time that would be more celebratory or something

Anyways, the point of the exercise is theory. I’m not asserting anything, but I’ve looked at the case, and theories aren’t fun if they’re TOO half assed

That's related to the employment-to-population ratio. One of the quirks of our system is that you're only counted as being "in the workforce" if you're employed or actively looking for employment. If you're not looking for work, you're not considered to be technically "in" the workforce. For example, the numbers of Boomer women and ex-housewives that flooded the job market in the 70s and 80s dramatically increased the workforce numbers. After the dotcom bubble popped, you'll notice that the employment-to-population ratio had a permanent falloff from its peak at that time. Some of that is due to a combination of Boomers retiring over the last 25 years, some of it's related to the weird NEET sub-economy we've had the last 5-10 years.

Just giving up and living off your parents wasn't an option until recently. Everyone worked because they had to. I worked at a lumber yard because I had to. I had a bachelor's degree. So did two other guys at the yard. The idea that this was monstrously unfair, and that I could just not work instead, never crossed my mind.

Right now, where I live, labor has never paid better. We have 20 retirees for every apprentice in the trades. Guys are coming out of trade school to make $75K or more per year. A friend of mine on my street who's nearly fifty just did a hard career shift, left teaching to do some sort of electronics instrumentation thing, went from $55K/yr to $100K/yr. That kind of thing wasn't around 25 years ago.

Not to undersell the degree to which boomers cause the problem overall, but this in particular is largely due to their kids not being willing to pull the plug. Which I do empathize with, but does cause problems.

It's not that picking cotton is a great job.
I would rather pick cotton than go back to working in the food industry even if the pay was the same and i'm not kidding.

Edit:

The jobs reports have all sorts of weird nuance that makes them misleading. I've been a freelancer for 8 years paid entirely on 1099 and I usually average around 100k, so while i don't add to the unemployment numbers I also don't add to the "well paid job hiring" numbers. If a company fires their employee and hires me as a freelancer it just looks like a job disappeared at least that's my understanding of it.

Modern journalism in a nutshell, The first one is an article which references a paywalled op-ed, which in turn references a book that they refuse to actually give a link to, all the while refusing to actually put a link to the BLS stats
 
With its climate, vast wilderness and resources California should be a great state to live in.

Unfortunately shitlib policies have turned it into a third world state LARP'ing as a European country.
I will never forgive them for that. I love California, I still miss the chaparral and the sea.
But they destroyed a genuine Elysium.

Why?
Faggotry.
Marxism.
Junkies.
Savior complex.

A million reasons why they NEEDED to destroy my home. They HAD TO. It was for THE GREATER GOOD. Only a BIGOT and a FASCIST could disagree.
