Extremely misleading unemployment rate. The article is from 2020, during the height of covid

Normally it should be like -80% unemployment because all those people working 3 jobs

Your unemployment rate and eviction rate sources are from 2020, there may have been something causing those high numbers that year. Like, I get your point, but be factual and up to date when you're trying to make the point. Otherwise you let the billionaire shills tear your argument apart and totally discount the whole thing.

Fair point, I found the meme and then dug up some numbers after. It's probably gotten better since the peak pandemic.

what I think the message here is that we have exceptional billionaires and there's nothing wrong with that and no one is paying me to say this thank you for the car uncle bill.
