<---- is what's going on right, now everything else is fucking bullshit

and unfortunately this is considered "American"

 

1.Thing is that businesses aren't charities.  Even when times were good, they would still layoff workers and maximize profits.  That has been going on a decade or so.  Idea is to get more and more out of workers without paying for the increases in productivity.  Having people salaried helped a lot to.  But, another factor, abiove all, is that business just can't see what the future would hold now.  Even the guys on top are clueless, so they aren't sure if it is worth hiring.   Also, there has been a very large push as time goes on for "just in time" labor.  Business staff up exactly what they need when they need it.  This means on retail, people working weird hours and no one has anything permanent.  This also helps to 2.maximize profits.

1. your joking right.....please tell me you kidding

2. yeah the "Maximize profits" is what's killing the country, shit it's killing the whole damn world economy
