Michael Snyder: "There are highly qualified [unemployed] people that can’t even get an interview even though they are sending out hundreds and hundreds of resumes. What are they doing wrong? They aren’t doing anything wrong. The employment market is far tighter than we are being led to believe, and that isn’t going to change any time soon."
"The elite are trying to do their best to convince us that everything is just fine, but meanwhile the Conference Board’s index of leading economic indicators has now
fallen for 19 months in a row…"
"Right now, there are only 6.5 million U.S. adults that are officially considered to be “unemployed”.
"But another 99.9 million U.S. adults are considered to be “not in the labor force”. So they don’t count as being “unemployed”. When you add those two numbers together, you get a grand total of 106.4 million U.S. adults that do not have a job right now."
At no point during the economic crisis of 2008 and 2009 did that number get anywhere close to that.
Below: observe the data from Shadowstats.com, and check in with them from time to time when you question the dishonest government and media numbers. If inflation was measured the way that it was back in 1980, the official rate of inflation would be well into double digit territory. If honest numbers were being used for unemployment, the official rate would be about 25 percent right now.
Last week, the 34-year-old Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani, the New York state assemblyman who is the runaway favourite to become mayor of New York City in next month’s election, posted pictures of himself at Masjid At Taqwa mosque in Brooklyn, New York with its imam, Siraj Wahhaj, who he described as one of the nation’s foremost Muslim leaders.
Wahhaj has said: “I will never, ever tell people, ‘Don’t be violent, that is not the Islamic way.’ The violence has to be selected.”
He has been extremely clear that he is working for Islam to destroy America.
“You don’t get involved in politics because it’s the American thing to do,” he said. “You get involved in politics because politics are a weapon to use in the cause of Islam. Wherever you came from, you came to America. And you came for one reason — for one reason only — to establish Allah’s deen [‘law’ or ‘way of life’ in Arabic].” And he predicted: “Democracy will crumble, and there will be ...
AI can't think because it's a binary language model. It sees patterns or creates patterns that aren't there, so it makes things up all the time. It cannot reason.
Adds Charles Hugh Smith:
1. The security of AI chatbots is Swiss cheese.
2. AI undermines real learning / education.
3. AI Slop is taking over the web.
4. AI tools con / defraud individuals.
5. AI fraud is unlimited--fake songs by real artists, deepfakes, AI designed ransomware, the list is endless.
8. AI psychosis--AI chatbots are addictive and destructive to mental health.
7. AI agents degrade already poor services.
8. AI data centers are squandering capital, water and electricity on a vast scale.
A-I has already quit operating as-advertised. It has lost the “I” part. A-I does its thing by rapidly combing through the Internet to evaluate and seize information that you request. Increasingly, A-I colonizes the Internet with second-hand, third-hand, and so forth A-I-generated information. The more territory A-I seizes on the Web, and the more it trains itself on recursive feedbacks of its own garbage, the more distorted the output gets. As that occurs, A-I becomes increasingly abstracted from Reality, which is exactly what happens when a person goes insane. So, expect an exponential rise in incorrect content that would, in theory, become a pretty serious problem when you ask A-I to run things like systems we depend on, the electric grid, harvesting crops, warfare. . . .
Secondly, as that process runs, and probably before it gets very far, A-I looks like it will wreck the financial system, which, in turn, would crater the economy of everyday life — the ability of people to earn...
