There is no solidarity from the owners and the companies, instead their top brass gets record incomes, while anyone below them is treated as such.

I am a complete novice at unemployment and how it works. However, back in April 2020 My employer advised a few of us to look at unemployment options in the case that we got furloughed (I never got furloughed). I went through the application process and I remember them asking me questions like "Am I currently looking for jobs?" "am I able to take a job if it is offered?" "How many hours did I work that week?" etc. They made it seem like I basically had to take a job as long as there was something available that was reasonable.

So I guess my question is, How can there be so many jobs available yet people are still able to just collect unemployment without really attempting to get a job?"

[Die-CastMetal]

Too many individuals simply don’t know how to act in order to save their own pathetic life.

[Die-CastMetal]

Those unwilling to control their emotions and actions that follow will be subject to an incredible injustice

Go back to work! Their is help wanted signs just about every place you look...

I just found it funny the ad came before this video was literally an ad for hiring and talks about benefits and competitive wages.

[Die-CastMetal]

It’s the lives that act with violence corruption and ignorance prove their life doesn’t matter as much as those they threaten with their actions.

Boosting minimum wages boosts prices and basically causes inflation
