One thing I was everyone would be more honest about is that the Fed is trying to put millions out of work to force workers to accept lower wages.

There is no US labor shortage. That’s a myth

There is, however, a shortage of jobs paying sufficient wages to attract workers to fill job openings

The entire made up FAKE "Culture War" is REALLY the eternal struggle between the Plutocracy/ Oligarchy against workers -- the REAL "makers".
It's emotions targeted propaganda, financed by the deepest pockets, is terrifyingly successful. The 'defense' budget itself is actual economic warfare against Americans. Keep us broke. Keep us divided. Keep us unfocused. It works.

@lolgop The biggest effect of higher rates so far has been a slowing housing market. Prices and rents coming down is a good thing, IMO. If they start to ease soon, then the jobs market should be fine. If they keep tightening, I think it will become a problem.
