That’s a nice talking point, but it’s too bad that it doesn’t match reality of this or any of the previous pandemics.  People have taken advantage of the situation to reconsider their employment options.  Some have decided the costs of child care, transportation, etc are too great for what they’ve been getting paid. …

You’re almost talking as if many regressive communities in this country aren’t still at like 30% vaccination rate, and the Delta variant isn’t starting to spread rapidly in the US too.

Have you considered there’s a labor shortage because 600,000 people died, and not because people “don’t want to work”? I’m so god damn tired of this uninformed, bullshit opinion.

So many owners of multiple SAABs here as if it were some sort of syndrome. I never realized Trollhattan was that close to Stockholm.

It’s a real shame, I was looking forward to the trial, but only for two weeks I wasn’t going to pay 30 bucks a month after that.

1700sqFt is SMALL house? Yeezus, where do you live?

They don’t beg to differ, that is why they have cancelled the Fit, and the Yaris. If you think the Accent isn’t next, idk what you’re smoking but I want some of that

Well, yeah. At least with home construction, the problem is that “up-market” features like stone countertops and stainless steel fixtures cost pennies compared to the cost of putting up walls.  

You know, comments like this is what makes The Root one of the best sites online. I mean, look at the breadth of knowledge you packed into two paragraphs, and it’s more than a fucking ex-senator knows.

It becomes hard for people in this country to actually identify what is “leftist”. Nothing written here on Jalopnik is leftist.
