WASHINGTON—With millions of Americans still out of work and job openings at a record high, policy makers are dealing with an unexpected problem: How to coax people back into the labor force. Congressional lawmakers from both parties are considering incentives such as providing federal funding to pay for hiring bonuses for workers and expanded tax credits for employers. A handful of states are moving to implement such programs on their own, without waiting for action from Washington. Some economists, Republican lawmakers and business owners say enhanced federal unemployment benefits are contributing to the labor shortage, because many workers receive more in government aid than they would get on the job. Those benefits—$300 a week on top of regular state payments—are due to expire after Labor Day.

再发钱就完了
前几天听到的一个筹备罢工的真实案例，旅馆重新开业，召回去年ｌａｙｏｆｆ的员工，但因为时间超过了半年，根据合同上的条款，要求这些人的seniority全部清零从头开始～～你要是不回去，就可以直接解雇～～
企业赚那么钱，工资又不涨，太黑了
穷人怎么着都不行。 发钱给经济，他们既不炒股又不炒房，然后整天抱怨钱都发给富人了。 直接发钱到手里，就开始躺在家里不干活。
穷人就像黑人，又懒又笨没有出路。
我都不知道这是不是反讽了～～
善意提醒你回家按时吃药
有的人真是天生自信满满的，自信他们的一生永远不会成为弱者，永远不会出现受穷困的那天.......
UBI的小规模实验？事实说明（1）大部分人没有生存压力的时候也就不想产出直接躺平了，而不是在没有经济的压力下更自由的为自己的理想为奋斗（2）目前技术发展程度还不足以代替大部分劳动力。
这个跟UBI是不同的。UBI是发一个保底工资，你只要出去工作多挣的都是你的。而现在的情况是如果你出去工作，就没有失业金了。如果工资还不如失业金高，确实没有工作的动力。
这样发失业金是有bug的。但是，另一方面也表明，底层的工资收入确实是太低了。
招的到司机谁去坐车？都居家呢。Uber为啥没受影响那么大？
不过仔细算算。联邦总共每周只发300块钱穷人就躺平了。如果按每周工作40个小时算，300块钱相当于每小时7.5美元。这个工资是不是有点太低了。
你没加上州里给的。
很多州都是只给几百块钱。全算下来也到不了15块时薪的最低工资。
这种工作的确应该由机器人代替。活人拿15$ 根本吃饭都不够。
中美两国低端人口躺平了。美国政府还有钱发，回去干活才怪。
转眼就忘了被叫做Chinese virus 的日子了。
想起了隔壁那楼楼主管老墨园丁叫“下人”～～川粉的想法就是，白人第一我第二，其他都是下等人～～
还有很大一个因素，老板们不愿意召回老员工，想请新员工，所以双方僵持中。
反正现在很多firm不管新旧，能找到合适的人就已经不容易了。不想上班的不仅仅是拿救济支票的，很多在街上混饭吃的这几年自己的投资账户都很肥，不卖老板账了。看来market需要狠狠地挤一下泡沐
我说的是靠paycheck过日子的，有多少人有投资账户啊～～
他们的工作，说的不好听一点就是，谁都能做。全靠工龄涨工资。 所以老板想赶走老人，换成新人。 他们也不愿意换个地方再从头熬起～～
你说的这种情况肯定有，但整体形势是招人困难，不管老人还是新人。明天会公布就业数据，从今天的ADP的数据看，明天就业人数会增加不少。
他投的是baiden 不是biden……
很莫名其妙啊，最开始大放水不是trump时期？
同学，川普只是要保持低利率，而不是发钱啊。利率低投资就活跃，工作机会多，失业的就少。现在一样吗？印钱发钱，完全不需要工作了
经济强劲复苏其实是说通货膨胀厉害。福利好人民不愿回去工作是说失业率下不来。 左派"形势不是小好，而是大号特好"的歌功颂德的笔法，还是得像tg多学习一下。
最后只有政府养着。
连名字都能写错。很怀疑你真的投了Biden.
