Maybe democrats should have been talking about black jobs like Trump did. What is a black job anyhow? Is that what all those text messages that went out to black people when Trump was announced the winner of the election we’re about? Head hunters looking for new recruits to work in the exciting new field of… checks notes, uh, picking cotton.
There’s still time for them to hop in the strawberry fields after the deportations, then unionize and strike and demand better wages before Musk gets rid of OSHA and collective bargaining
Most Latinos do not work in the fields. Many of us have been here for several generations. There are many types of Latinos. (Disclaimer: I voted, phonebanked, and canvassed for Kamala.)
I was more trying to say that most of the jobs Trump will create are the absolute shit-ass cash jobs no one wanted to do in the first place, after he does his undocumented mass deportation stuff, and boiled the sentiment down to a colloquialism
I really wanna be wrong about this but when companies start stockpiling pre-tariff stuff and moving manufacturing in, it’s gonna show up as a lot of expense and might plunge us into a correction and really dry up the job market. Lots of companies are wringing out earnings beats with revenue misses thanks to layoffs and stuff like that so it’s kinda losing steam to begin with.
I’ve been trying to think why a lot of bajillionaires are sitting on so much cash in this kind of environment, and aside from the market generally looking overpriced/slim pickings, that’s the only other thing I can envision
What about a bunch of rainy days followed by someone pissing in your Corn Flakes anyway?
Maybe if so many people weren’t content with, and excusing away, constant choices between different types of disappointment, we wouldn’t have ended up where we are now. It is possible for something other than disappointment to exist…
Boy are they going to be disappointed
Work camps are a job.

Fuck people are ignorant.

OK, fair enough.

To be honest, they were going to be disappointed either way.
Life is disappointment. I still think a sane person on average would rather have a rainy day than someone piss in their Corn Flakes.
