What a coincidence.

What a coincidence.

They still can’t hire anyone, every place is understaffed, still offering bonuses, take out only, shelves not being filled during the day.

I don’t think many are coming back, I believe they moved home and have no intention of leaving their safe spaces.

It's just the crack up boom coming is all.

Someone didn't get the joke.

Where are all these great posters suddenly coming from?

When I was a teenager my girlfriend bought me a giant weed poster and my mom threw it away. Then I made myself a nice wooden pipe and she threw that away too. It was nice. I made it out of a solid block of wood with a Dremel. I sanded it and everything. Carved some designs on it. I think they were kind of proud cause they took it and I found it a couple months later but they threw it away the second time

Why is that a bad thing? Can you illustrate that? Hint: your argument is Atlas Shrugged. The catch is whether or not you can see past that.

It depends on what your definition of “atlas shrugged” is. People have different interpretations, some believe it’s when workers stop caring, quit and start side businesses, stop paying taxes and taking payments in only cash or barter and it crashes the current corrupt system from loss of tax revenue and not using the mega corporations to buy their goods.

The young being too lazy to work isn’t atlas shrugged, the entrenched corporations will just hire illegals with the governments permission and keep the current system will keep on going without them. Also half the population loves the current system corrupt system and wants to give the government and corporations more control.

The book is about when big corporations get tired of the government and their regulations, “go on strike with their products”, crash the system and and start over without the government interference/regulations/high taxes/corruption for their newer inventions the government won’t approve because it will destroy the big money they get from the other entrenched corporations.

If you’re talking about the first interpretation, I’d say in the healthcare field, yes to a small extent. But not in other fields at this point since mandates aren’t in many businesses yet. And most liberal millennials only want gigs like Uber, Lyft, door dash etc which keep all the big Silicon Valley corporations propped up.

Some people are legitimately scared to work and others are just lazy and use the pandemic as an excuse. If you talk to them “they won’t work for $15-$17 and risk dying from a virus” but they have no problem going out in public, shopping, bars or large gatherings.

The lazy also haven’t started any side businesses to support themselves and are leeching off their parents and relatives now that the free money has temporarily ran out until the 3.5 trillion bill is passed.

If you’re talking about the book interpretation then we’re not even close. Silicon Valley controls everything, plus you got Amazon(which people won’t stop using and buy locally) and Microsoft, Walmart, unilever, nestle, coke, Pepsi, Hollywood etc.

The meat processors are owned by China and exporting our food.

They’ve already announced they’re going to try and use lockdowns, travel and food restrictions and mandates for climate change since it’s now considered a “health crisis”.

And the mega corporations will go along with it just like now and drive out all the small businesses, create apps to track your movements, limit your protein buying, you’re energy usage etc.

The current corrupt government system is still being propped up and and corporations are in lock step with them unless something catastrophic happens in the near future.

The way things are looking through it could go either way but it’s leaning in the government and corporations favor currently.

You seem to think people are leaving their jobs and abandoning the workforce because they're lazy... So, the main takeaway from Atlas Shrugging is exactly the picture the words form: if Atlas, the guy holding up the world on his shoulders, shrugs, the world tips over. In other words, if the working class abandons its positions, the world sits still and quite literally falls off a cliff. Is that a bad thing? Maybe for someone who doesn't see the next step or can't appreciate where to take things from there.

We want more leisure time. If people are finding their self-worth, pride will return to occupations. If pride returns to occupations, quality of production improves, as well as quality of life. What we really want to see is an influx of automation. This is the kind of scenario where exactly that cause can take place, producing the effect we all intimately desire - more leisure time. Why is expanded leisure time important? It's obvious: more innovation, sprawling increases of quality in arts of all kinds, longevity and quality of life improvements, health breakthroughs, all sorts of things we all know we need. The trouble is we all too often expect ramifications from these things happening which inhibit our growth. If we focused on how things could improve instead of how things could go wrong, we could get to a lot of distant places and much faster.

People are still fighting mandatory vaccines. I hear and see stuff about people leaving because they're being forced to get vaccinated for work. I feel like ultimately businesses are going to have to walk back vaccine mandates if they want employees.

I think we're beyond basic economic principles at this point. "They" REALLY...really...want us to get vaxed for some reason and I don't think it's money.

That's obvious when you realize they want people that have immunity to get the shot even though they don't need the shot.

It could still be money, they apparently don’t get a refund for any unused doses that they already paid for. But it also could be MAGNETO https://www.alzforum.org/news/research-news/molecular-magneto-protein-opens-neuronal-ion-channel-commanded-magnetic-field

Like the government cares about a refund or wasting money.

It's almost like major staff shortages in healthcare is going to cause more people to get sick, die and quit.

And now they are mandating for teachers in some places, which will cause massive shortages at schools and kids being sent home which will put even more people out of work.

If I was a foreign power and wanted to destroy a country I'd put a dementia ridden potato in office with an unbelievable vote count and do the same for key states and then follow the exact protocol above.

Hopefully kids get homeschooled, they don’t need that indoctrination.

All the waste of running those giant buildings and staff cut them out and bring down property taxes.

"Covid unemployment money" Fucking backwards logic. They should have paid the people who kept working all that extra money instead.

I've been working through this whole fucking thing; while lazy fucks get paid to stay home I got temporary "essential worker pay". It amounted to one extra dollar an hour before it ended three months after it started. Am I not still essential? Are we not still in a pandemic? Am I not still risking my health to serve people?

(((They're))) so concerned about our health yet I don't see cordons and warnings around the fucking candy and snack isles in stores, do you?

The easiest way to handle that would have been a steep decrease in income taxes.

All the niggers around me got unemployment even though they never worked.

This guy isn’t a nigger but thinks he’s collapsing the system by not working. More immigrants, ubi and bigger government is all he’s creating.

Exactly. You are retarded if you surrender your leverage to a centralized authority that has a track record of abusing its authority over those it rules over.

Need to pin some sort of post about how to protect yourself against this being fired and mandates these employers are trying to pull. There’s gotta be a way out of it due to it still being under the emergency use authorization EUA. Being experimental and all. Lawyers are out there ready to get paid I’m sure. This got to be a easy case.

If you mention it’s still under eua, they’ll think you’re a nut, everyone thinks it’s been approved.

Your only hope is a religious exemption.

Here’s a thread from a university insider that leaked the requests and approvals/disapproved/need to take when fda approved.

https://poal.co/s/CoronaVirus/417527

Here’s the mirrored spread sheets.

If you mention science, dna, rna, experimental, natural immunity, my body is a temple, faith healing you’ll be denied, faith healing will get you an exemption until the vaccine is fda approved which they believe it is now.

You must stick to “sincerely held religious beliefs” against using fetal cell lines in testing or drugs/vaccines, even if there was a cure for an incurable cancer you had you’d refuse use.

Then they can ask you questions, just keep repeating the same thing, it doesn’t matter what religion you are make one up, it doesn’t matter what the leaders say about the vaccine, it’s your “sincerely held belief”. They can ask for affidavits from friends and family, just have them talk about how religious you are and make shit up about going to pro life rallies, how you’ve discussed this subject in the past etc.
