You see, advanced countries, like the #UnitedStates, pool resources for the common good. How? Well, governments enact #taxes and then spend that money on things that benefit everyone. Think of #nationaldefense, #schools, #highways, #healthcare, #unemployment insurance — basically government spending that protects the #wellbeing of the people.
"Despite studies showing #Black #immigrants are, on average, the most educated group of immigrants in the #UnitedStates, they earn lower wages than similarly trained non-Black immigrants and have the highest #unemployment rate of any #immigrant group.
An ethnic #racist asks, 'Why are Black immigrants doing better than African Americans?'
An ethnic #antiracist asks, 'Why are Black immigrants not doing as well as other immigrant groups?'"

This isn't some wild claim and a #WAG of a number on the part of Alberta.
That number is what you get when you apply the #official #CPP #formula for a #province withdrawing from the plan. i.e., it's the correct amount.
It seems high because #Alberta's #contributions to CPP have been historically much higher than average (good jobs, low #unemployment), and their proceeds from it have been much lower than average (low average age).
It's realistic.
Also, being face to face in a room full of people for 8 hours a day, 2 days next week is:

Ugh. My employment service provider is making me do the RSA/RCG certificates.
I've explained to them that:
- I'm studying at uni, and am not going to work in the service industry.
- my mental health, and specifically ptsd, would never let me work in service, especially around drunk people.
- my physical disabilities would never be accommodated within the service industry.
Their response? "Yeah, we'll still have you do it because it'll look great on your CV"
Bitch, if 15 years of nursing experience isn't getting me job interviews, having an RSA isn't going to be the thing that clinches it.
Also, it's super frustrating because they could be using my spot for someone who DOES want an RSA but can't afford it.
Happy Thursday, Friends! Does high prices cause #inflation? Is inflation a result of #greedycorporations, low #unemployment, or high #wages? What is the #origin of inflation anyway?

Over 40% of India’s graduates under 25 unable to find jobs, says report
There is large variation in the rate of unemployment even within the higher educated group. The unemployment rate falls from over 40 percent for educated youth under 25 years of age to less than five percent for graduates who are 35 years and above, a report titled State of Working India 2023 shows.

Workers unionizing and asking for better wages and working conditions isn't "class warfare". Class warfare is what the rich have *been waging against the rest of us* for decades. It's the reason we're all struggling so hard, while they say things like, "we need unemployment rise... we need to see pain". 😡

There was a time when employers and their mouthpieces wouldn't say stuff like this in public. But now they feel there are no bad consequences for telling governments that they need to increase unemployment so that workers don't get the idea that they are human brings with rights, and not interchangeable parts to be tossed away at employers' convenience.
Took this from the bird app from Financial Review account. It's class war with governments and employers against us. Wonder if this is one of the reasons they let Covid19 infect us again and again? Absolutely seeing all that funding in AI playing a role in this too.

U.S. Job Growth remains steady amid efforts to cool the economy
The #labor market continued to moderate gradually, with hiring remaining steady but the #unemployment rate rising, reflecting efforts by the Federal Reserve to cool the economy
#Markets are reacting positively in early trading, with the S&P 500 up 0.3 percent. The two-year treasury yield, which is sensitive to changes in expectations for the Fed's interest-rate moves, remained steady.

The Fed has a mandate: low unemployment and to keep inflation in check.
What people don't realize is what's not in the Fed's mandate is the livelihood of everybody else in the world. So both in the early eighties and last year the Fed raised interest rates really fast to quell a domestic issue [inflation]. This absolutely crushes the Global South.

On India’s 77th Independence Day, Driven By Poverty, Caste, Millions Of Migrant Workers Live As Modern Slaves
India abolished bonded labour in 1976, but various forms of modern slavery persist, entrapping 11 million, while committees to enforce the law are absent or don’t work, and surveys to identify bonded labour have not been conducted for years. Workers are often beaten, locked up & paid well below minimum wage.

Unemployment is low, inflation is down, and no recession. How is the economy doing this?
"It’s worth remembering just how unlikely this all seemed a year ago. As the Federal Reserve started to hike interest rates to try to fight inflation, many commentators regarded some kind of a recession as a fait accompli. "

“The same moral principles and considerations apply to the issue of accepting #SocialSecurity, #unemployment insurance, or other payments of that kind.

The jobseeker payment is slated to increase by $56 a fortnight on 20 September, when the $40 a fortnight increase announced in the budget will come into effect, as well as 2.2% indexation for cost of living.
But despite price jumps in non-discretionary goods and services like utilities, rent and food outstripping the increase, and a $20bn budget surplus, Rishworth said there was unlikely to be any further cost-of-living relief forthcoming this year.
Jobseeker remains well below the poverty line with the government ignoring advice from its own expert committee to lift the jobseeker rate to at least $845 a fortnight

This looks really interesting and important. I haven’t read the work yet, and advanced analytics is outside my comfort zone.
Some initial thoughts:
1. If we have evidence of a causal relationship between unemployment and suicide, how can economists and politicians justify calling 4-5% unemployment “full” employment, and how many lives is it ethical to sacrifice in the name of attempting to control inflation?
2. While unemployment is the current (socially constructed) category and measurable thing here, what is it about unemployment that drives suicide? This is important for interventions and systemic change. Is it the financial aspects (like financial hardship, debt)? The sense of abjection? The social stigmas? The sense of purposelessness and exclusion? In short, can we test whether the (ironically) capitalist assumption that “more jobs” is the answer?

On the radio this morning, I heard an economist say that the RBA might not increase #interestRates because employment numbers are "improving", by which they meant that #unemployment is increasing.
To reduce inflation, we need to reduce demand for goods and services. We *could* choose to reduce this demand at the top end of town, where it is most discretionary (international holidays, new cars, third houses, etc) -- however, we've chosen instead to reduce the demand of people who don't really have any discretionary spending to cut.
In a nutshell, this is why we have a housing and poverty crisis.

@simon_brooke Capital is, ultimately, a book about #unemployment. If there is a teleology in Marx, it is a teleology of #layoffs, that what employment produces is ultimately, and necessarily unemployment.
Marx hypothesized bouts of mass unemployment as the moment when labor may unite against the division of labor and overthrow the state, but he didn't think it would be a necessary occurrence. The deterministic stageist Marxism of the 2nd international should be considered vulgar Marxism today.

Fun side note, I also was ineligible for #unemployment benefits, and in a roundabout way this was also due to my transition! (Though not in an intentionally discriminatory way)
Since I changed my name legally, there will forever be two names associated with my social security number. Most identity checking services see that, assume fraud, and tell me to take a hike. Due to COVID, there’s apparently no way to contact a human being.

The #AI based automation caused #unemployment will be U-shaped.
It means that at first we'll see an unprecedented rise in employment on a sector where automation is starting to take hold. We need lots of people on top of all the people currently doing the work to plan, train, advice, integrate and validate these AI systems there.
Companies doing layoffs now are not in a good position to act on this change.
Once the AI systems are doing fine in one area, it will cause strains to the adjanced areas, as now one part of the overall chain scales indefinitely, can consume inputs without limits, and can produce output as much as is required. New bottlenecks emerge.
The people who supported the automation in the first point of attack can pretty easily follow the wave of automation across the adjanced areas.
The change starts from information intensive labor and proceeds towards manufacturing, maintenance and physical work through robotics.
Overall, human labor activity increases a lot because this change is so important and valuable, and eventually it's all done.
Then we already have a society which can produce well-being without labor input, and thus as this change proceeds, we can transform our societies to be more equal, more sustainable, more accommodating and more vibrant. In a large part of human history people typically worked less than they do nowadays, so increased leisure is nothing new.
Even after this point, we will still see endless curiosity and craving of knowledge about humanity by AIs themselves, even about things which weren't necessarily important economically before this change. Tiny minority languages will be recorded in a systematic fashion, people's living memory will be written down by AIs, all kinds of weird human skills will be observed and learned by AIs.
This curiosity by AIs will engage people without end, so people will have things to do even when labor in its original form becomes unnecessary. Our economies will have a new major form of consumption, machine curiosity, which drives activity.

March weather could spell trouble for #Iowa's outdoor #unemployment industry this year.
Already, one #SiouxCity #concrete company says, they're worried #workers might not come back because unemployment was cut.
“If I have a month where we can’t start working and they don’t have another source of income, like unemployment insurance, they’re going to go out and look for another job. Then, I’m going to be in trouble.”
🎉I managed to secure a new job. 🎉 As a #Automation QA. It's a first for me. (I know some automation, but this is confirmation that I can learn and level up my skills). Thanks to everyone who supported me during the super shitty transition of #unemployment back to a company that I think will be really fun, and at the same time help me grow.
In the long run, with automation encroaching, I think UBI needs to be in the mix, too. Not just unemployment insurance, but the actual ability to live without a job.
If the essential work of the world can run without people, that should be a success for all humankind, not the sort of dystopia we are moving toward.

Today in Labor History February 11, 1918: Tens of thousands of unemployed Danish syndicalists stormed the Stock Exchange in Copenhagen. Only the leaders knew where the demonstration march was heading. To trick the police, they leaked that their target was the Pork Hall, which they were going to loot. Participants, armed with clubs, attacked the stockbrokers. Later, they attacked police with rubble from a construction site. Media sources compared the storm with the ravages of the Red Army and looting in the Finnish Civil War,

Now with #Copilot and #ChatGPT, people seem to have forgotten this, and are trying to increase the number of lines of code a #SoftwareEngineer produces per day.
Can you see where this leads to? What is the situation a company making use of these #technologies will find itself in next?
I'm just saying software engineer #unemployment isn't going to be it.
I'm not saying these technologies and #tools aren't useful; clearly they are. I have used them a lot for different purposes. They can help in #teaching software engineering, and any other topic, for example, if it doesn't matter that the material is a few years old.
We can finally have decent #chatbot #ProgressiveUserInterfaces which understand what the user wants, and understand the system they interface to.
These technologies will also evolve fast and ultimately they will change everything.
It's just that the first ideas people got of "fewer software engineers are now needed" and "now junior engineers can do everything" are grossly unrealistic. I don't mind people testing that though, feel free to make bets.
