K1; if you’re one of those people who said the unemployment benefits were the reason people didn’t go back to work then it’s time to acknowledge the data is proving you wrong. The absence of unemployment benefits actually makes recovery harder and slower.

The data isn't proving anyone wrong. It's just not proving anyone right either. Failing to reject a null doesn't prove a null.

Or as the article said they decided to stay home because maybe one spouse got a job. Or they decided to go to college or pursue other opportunities or want to remain remote. Whatever the reason unemployment benefits was low on the list of reasons they weren’t looking so no need to keep providing them then.

No matter what it is A waste of money at this point. They don’t have to go get jobs but absolutely no reason to keep burning extra money when if they do want or need a job there are options.

Sounds like the company did them a disservice by not looking at categories of people…age, industry, etc. and instead did a high-level swag.

This other analysis saw that the age group being employed is shifting. Not good, necessarily, bc it speaks to a skill gap that remains. I see that as an ongoing post-pandemic concern: we have 1-2yrs of “lost education growth”.

I am a Staff II in tax and am looking to go into consulting or finance. I have experience in finance and like the idea of switching. I like where I work, but have realized that I don't necessarily enjoy tax. I want to keep my options open and feel that tax doesn't necessarily give me the capacity to explore opportunities besides tax due to the fact that is it such specialized knowledge. Does anyone have any stories/ideas about moving to consulting or finance? Or is one preferred over the other?

Swinging between Biden & Trump:
• CCP is deadly evil and is a real threat now
• Trump convinces ppl with emotional words
• Biden makes self-conflicting speeches

• Trump’s racist comments (researching)

Trump is spot on Re: Nord Stream II pipeline. If we are to help defend Germany, they should not be buying Russian oil/gas. Reliance on Russian energy puts them in a compromising position.

Why should we bankroll Germany’s defense against Russia when German energy purchases are lining Russia’s pockets? Isn’t Russia the biggest geopolitical threat to Germany in the first place?

Buy American LNG exports before turning towards a geopolitical adversary!
