In an increasingly polarised and performative society, vibes are now often trumping objective reality

    An example that appears to be wholly overlooked by the supposedly astronomically high employment is a lack of blue collar skilled workers

    I don’t understand because I would expect this to be the case based on the statistics.

      Yeah, if we have low employment it means that everyone is looking for workers. Now you could argue that workers are not properly distributed, but the result there would be that the roofer can charge high prices and start paying more (which would attract more roofers).
