Can you prove folks are refusing to work because of UI benefits?
I've provided links to past articles identifying employee shortages prior to the pandemic and the impact on those industries.
Love the deflection. If there’s so many jobs available paying wayyy more than in the past to get people to work, why are folks still collecting free stuff?
Except this pandemic is way beyond past years. You don’t have a comparison because it doesn’t fit your narrative, and trying to say that your area is unaffected compared to 2014, versus the rest of the country is hilarious. Free stuff folks will say anything to defend that money until it runs out.
Not ignoring it at all. But it's naïve not to look at numbers provided to you from the source (Department of Labor) and easily realize that your claims of people staying at home are false (especially when the drop is more than 50%). People are going back to work despite the supplemental unemployment because it's not replacement wage. I'm sure you're not smart enough to realize that the mark of full employment on the U3 chart is 5.2% (we're currently just over 6%). So in other words (try and follow me here Einstein), even at full employment, there are millions of jobs available.
At this point, I'm not going to waste my time on you as it would be more effective to talk to a wall. Time to really put you on "ignore". Feel free to get any more irrational comments in that you would like. I'm had enough of your nonsense (and the dodging and deflecting is simply childish).
The Biden administration, for its part, said there’s little evidence unemployment benefits are dissuading people from taking jobs. They blamed closed schools and daycare centers, saying many parents have to stay home to care for children.
since the media has taken this at face value and run with it, as have the most-left Biden supporters ...
I don't see an attempt at U6 by race/sex, but I can link the official report

Who said some people weren’t going back to work?
I’m certainly smarter as I was able to use your own posts to prove you wrong, and thanks for the Einstein comparison.
With so many jobs available paying wayyy more than before, why is there a huge shortage of workers?
Female unemployment is 5.2%, below the average and below men.
Lol at believing what Sleepy Joe is saying. It’s summer, kids are all but out of school, no different than any other year. Did parents stay home due to no childcare in years past, and if so, do you have any numbers to support that?
There’s certainly some folks going back to work, but there’s certainly a huge number of job openings and still a huge number of folks collecting free stuff versus choosing to go back to work, which will obviously change when their free stuff runs out and they need to pay their bills.
"You get what you pay for" and as it relates here; when you pay a larger than normal segment of the working class to stay home, you will get a larger number of working class staying home
Of course Biden will lie about the statistics and/or any negative outcome of one of his admins schemes (like they all do)
