I dunno. I’d be a lot more apt to go seek a job if the market for my desired career and skills wasn’t currently being recklessly trashed. No point in taking a job offer knowing I’ll be the new guy and the first to get let go when the inevitable cuts come due to government cutbacks, tariff damage, and a recession leading to more reductions. It’s way easier to stay home and let the government, who carelessly took away my job, pay for me to play video games all day.
