When Trump brags about how many jobs he has created, I have to laugh. First of all, sitting around in your underwear, tweeting all day long does not get actual work done. Secondly, the "jobs" that he touts are, for the most part, low paying jobs that are either temporary/seasonal, or they employ people for less than 40 hours so that no benefits need to be given.
Yeah, there are jobs out there, if you are willing to work for minimum wage and work 20 hours a week.
A key theme in this year’s report is exploring the
sources and effects of financial fragility across several domains, from employment to banking to managing expenses. Results from the survey show that
many adults are financially vulnerable and would
have difficulty handling an emergency expense as
small as $400. In addition, volatile income and low
savings can turn common experiences—such as waiting a few days for a bank deposit to be available—
into a problem for some. At the same time, there is
evidence of coping strategies, such as supplementing
income through gig work and seeking financial support from family members.
And I wonder how many of those 40% do not meet the $400 because they have CC debt over $1,000 or are a single parent because they got pregnant before they could properly raise a child.
One-fifth of adults had major, unexpected medical
bills to pay in the prior year. One-fourth of adults
skipped necessary medical care in 2018 because
they were unable to afford the cost.
Show me the study to support your claim. Otherwise, I will put your comment in the, "blame the victim and bury my head" category.
Gee, did you post links to support your claim ?
