The truckers exist, but companies fuck them over. The drivers move on to other jobs. Why can't really stupid dukka do some damn homework?

State unemployment hasn't stopped and it was never supposed to. But there are time limits on it like there always have been. The Federal unemployment for COVID relief is over with and as such, the supposed incentive to not work that you are trying to pin on Biden is no longer being paid out.

And I guarantee you that people who made a good living driving trucks etc., have not decided they'd rather collect a few hundred a month in food stamps/SNAP benefits or get child tax credits, than make the kind of money they can make working.

You are just another dumbass, Trump drunk goofball.

Accepting defeat is a positive step for you.

As is admitting that you have the mentality of a 4 year old.

Keep on trying to improve!!!! :thup:

Yeah and the nation was at war then too.

Having enough pilots to fight an effective air war, was literally a matter of life and death.

I would also venure to say that those 18 y/o's were more mature than the 18 y/o's of today.

And of course, they had months of military training as opposed to some 2 week long commercial truck driving sourse.

Also, by 1944 when the demand for pilots was no longer so urgent, the law was changed so that in order to apply for flight training, one had to be a college graduate, which excluded 18 y/o's.

So your comparison is weak.

True in the US no doubt, but not in the UK. Although I will concede that teens were more grown-up back then.
 
The supply chain is a private construct. It is not made by the government. The turnover for truck drivers is 90 percent, so I read today. Pete did not cause that. That is a response to terrible treatment from wholesalers. Blaming Biden for this mess is incorrect.

changing posts , how mature

Anything is better than being a braindead MAGAFAG.

Supporting a sleazy, grifter, scumbag con-artist like Trump for President is the definition of a lack of maturity.

Former Walmart president and CEO Bill Simon ripped the supply chain under President Joe Biden on Friday, calling it a "mess from start to finish."


"I've never seen it like this, and I don't really think anybody living in this country has," Simon told FOX Business’ Dagen McDowell. "I mean, this is really unprecedented."

Simon joined "Mornings with Maria" to react to Americans’ widespread criticism of Biden’s response to shipping challenges and rising consumer prices. The hashtag #EmptyShelvesJoe held its own as a top trend on Twitter Thursday evening.

"There's a shortage of labor in our distribution system and there's a shortage of people to put [items] on the shelf," Simon explained.

BIDEN RESPONDS TO SUPPLY CHAIN CRISIS, URGES PRIVATE SECTOR TO ‘STEP UP’

He suggested that Biden’s first step to overcoming supply chain disruptions is to address the ongoing worker shortage.

"I don't think this gets solved until we alleviate the labor shortage that's out there and get people driving trucks and unloading at the docks and stocking shelves," Simon said.

With shipping and inventory backlogs expected to carry into the holiday season, Simon believes giant retail stores will survive while small businesses could struggle to keep shelves stocked.


"Smaller retailers just can’t get the product," he said. "They're just going to be left with nothing. It's going to be difficult for them."

House Republicans penned a letter to the Biden administration Thursday asking to evaluate solutions for the "ongoing supply chain crisis," noting disruptions would continue into 2022.

Simon said he expects the current administration to pump more money into the economy.

"The funding isn't stopping from the government," Simon said. "We just saw the largest Social Security increase in 30 years... There's still this funnel of funds coming through," which builds more consumer demand.

And until that ends, Simon believes the U.S. will continue to face a labor shortage and, consequently, supply chain issues.

"They're making the well-thought calculus that it's better for them to stay out of the [job] market right now than it is to get in," he said.

No surprise here, just like FDR and the Famous NRA legislation SCOTUS had to step in and stop, Biden and the democrats are going after small business, it is despicable.

You are right. truck driving is a hard life, as a truck driver you're gone for weeks sometimes, and you suffer from sleep deprivation and poor eating habits; certainly not a health life style.
