    Default Making fun of USA's low unemployment

    In September 2019, the unemployed in USA were about 7 million people give or take. A historic low of 3.5% unemployment.

    This is a thread to make fun and laugh at the overworked employees of USA and the poor employers that cannot fill vacancies or expand their businesses. Here are some examples:

    • In USA, unemployment is so low that about as many people are unemployed as the number of people that have been abducted by aliens.
    • In USA, unemployment is so low that employees are blackmailing their bosses for sex, threatening they will quit their jobs.
    • In USA, unemployment is so low that there are more people in prison, probation or community service than unemployed people.
    • In USA, unemployment is so low that there are as many unemployed people as people that own over 8 guns each.
    • In USA, unemployment is so low that you'll find more people thinking that Elvis Presley is alive than unemployed people.

    And another one:
    In USA, unemployment is so low that people would start paying money to see unemployed people with the benefits going to unemployed people.

    To be fair, it's about the number that believe it.

    Employment is a false dichotomy anyway, it's the unemployed who are truly the righteous.

    The unemployment rate is so low that the Americans stopped dominating the internet forums because they're too busy most of the time.

    In USA, unemployment is so low that there are fewer unemployed people than brain cells in the average Americans head.

    In the first three quarters of 2019, nearly 800 carriers went out of business, more than double the count of trucking failures in 2018, according to transportation industry data firm Broughton Capital.
    A number of factors are behind the pileup, including escalating insurance costs, tariffs impacting the ability to get cheaper products from China, and a decline in the spot market where shippers book last-minute transportation.
