The US was setting itself for quite a recovery in 2024... and for a class war too, so IDK what would get there first.
- hn_throwaway_99 9mo agoYeah, and as part of the "class war", a majority of the lower classes decided to elect a billionaire whose first order of business was to implement giant tax cuts for the richest Americans while cutting programs like Medicaid and SNAP. Class war will never work in America because we're too stupid.
- dragon-hn 9mo agoCorrection: the class war already started long ago. Unfortunately the lower classes are not only getting trounced, they mostly don’t know the war is happening.
- pardon_me 9mo agoIt turned out the revolution was always being televised, only it was us thinking what we saw was a reflection of society, not that it was being delivered to us disguised as our own ideas.
- tills13 9mo agoThe needle has swung so far in the opposite direction that a class war is back on the menu.
- slaw 9mo agoMass layoffs started in 2022, there was no setting for recovery in 2024.
- marcosdumay 9mo agoMass layouts started when the government increased the interest rate to fight inflation. By 2024, inflation was already under control, the interest rate was falling slowly, and companies were starting to hire.
- slaw 9mo agoCorrelation without causation. In 2024 companies were not starting to hire.
